Customers say: Quick response
"We had a mystery leak appearing on the basement ceiling tiles. The chimney was the primary suspect. Scott responded promptly and made an immediate appointment. He came out with a ladder and actually went up on the roof to determine exactly what was wrong. He found that the chimney flashing, shingles and interior wood was the cause. Squirrels made the problem worse. Scott was polite, thorough and was fair in his pricing. He spotted several other maintenance items requiring our attention but no pressure. We will book him again for 2 more projects; roof, trim repair. Fast service, great work and explanation of what was completed."

"Our chimney was in very rough shape and we got a few estimates. Nick was the most reasonable so we went with him. He knows his trade. The chimney looks very good from the street, lines look good and the missing pieces have been replaced. He was professional and respectful when he was here and finished the project in a very timely manner. I would recommend him and will call him again for other projects in our 110 year old house. Lots of brick and stone here!"

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.
