"The job was completed and the cost was resonable. My only complaint was that the appt time was changed 3 times before the final request from Shamrock, at 5:30 p.m., asking if we could be the first appt of the day, 9-10 a.m. They showed up at 2:30-3:00 p.m. I had to call Shamrock at noon to ask if we still had an appt. They replied now the previous job was not finished. Why would I get a call at 5:30 p.m. the day before to request if I could be the 1st appt of the day? Our afternoon plans were cancelled that day. I have no complaint of how job was completed but then I can't see the chimney cover being screwed in place. I guess I should have for a before & after picture."

"I had Gio and his crew repair (point) my entire chimney for the fireplace and they did a wonderful job. It took one day and 1/2 and the work was clean and well done. Gio was in charge and he explained everything to me answering all my questions. In addition he gave me a very fair price. I would recommend this company and Gio for any job you need."

"Anthony and his little Minion (9 foot-4inches, lol) were amazing. They went above and beyond after they started and I wanted to change something. Their work was so impressive, I am hiring them for another project. Punctual, honest and direct, trustworthy - can't ask for anything more. Thanks again guys."

"They responded the same day after posting the request for estimate. They came by at the end of the day, and gave an estimate and said they could do it 5 days later. The price seemed fair at $1,700 for three men. They arrived at 8 and were done by about 4:00. The trees were dead and so could not be climbed. Jony figured out how to do this and brought the trees down safely. The tree trunks greater than 10 inches were stacked neatly. The rest was chipped onto the ground around the very large tree, which Jony scaled to cut down two large branches."

Start with a professional inspection. If damage is limited to a few bricks or the crown, a targeted repair helps keep costs and disruption to a minimum. Severe leaning, widespread mortar failure, or major fire damage usually signals it’s time for a complete teardown and rebuild. Your contractor will outline both price tags, but remember that rebuilding a failing stack is often cheaper than repeated patch jobs and the water leaks or fire hazards they allow.
Cracks provide water with an easy path into the masonry, weakening the bricks and mortar and increasing the risk of collapse or fire. Gaps can also let hot gases and sparks escape into attic spaces. Call a chimney pro as soon as you see cracking so they can seal small joints or recommend a larger rebuild before minor damage turns into a costly emergency.
Smoke rolling back into the room often indicates a blocked flue, a broken damper, or a drafting issue. Have a sweep inspect the damper, flue liner, and any obstructions right away. Most fixes involve clearing debris, repairing the liner, or adjusting the damper so the fireplace pulls air correctly. Don’t light another fire until a professional pinpoints the cause and confirms your system is venting safely.
Most policies cover chimney repairs caused by a sudden, covered event, such as lightning, a fallen tree, or a house fire. They won’t cover damage that stems from neglected maintenance or everyday wear. Review your policy or contact your agent before scheduling work to determine what documentation your insurer requires and what costs you will be responsible for.
Component life spans vary. Clay tile or cast-in-place liners last close to 50 years, while stainless-steel liners last 15 to 20 years. Mortar requires attention every 25 to 30 years, while crowns last 50 to 75 years. Use these numbers as a maintenance roadmap: schedule regular inspections, budget for future upgrades, and replace parts before age-related cracks develop into more significant problems.
