Need Masonry or Chimney Repair Services?

Chimney repair services should never be put off. Prompt action is essential for maintaining the safety, function, and longevity of your structure. Furthermore, timely maintenance preserves the aesthetic appeal and value of the system, as well as helps avoid even more costly repairs or potential health hazards from mold or structural collapse.

Our techs are certified and experienced, ensuring that your heating system will operate efficiently and safely after we’re through with it. We offer a long list of repairs, such as crack repair, tuckpointing, replacing damaged bricks, leaky chimney repair, rebuilds, new chimney component installs, and more. 

Get the full rundown below:

• Chimney Renovation: Renovations often involve more extensive work to restore or upgrade the chimney. This can include structural repairs, updating materials, and replacing parts to improve functionality – whatever you need, we can handle it.
• Chimney Rebuilds: Sometimes reconstructing part or all of the chimney is the only option when repairs are extensive (often due to neglect or weather-related issues). We can do what needs to be done to restore your system.
• Chase Cover Installation: Chase covers are custom-fitted covers placed on top of chimney chases that prevent water, debris, and animals from entering the chimney. They’re essentially metal chimney crowns, and they serve an important role in protecting your flue.
• Firebox Rebuilds: Firebox rebuilds involve repairing or reconstructing the interior firebox – the place where the fire burns. This typically involves addressing issues like cracked bricks or worn-out mortar.
• Chimney Cap Installation: Installing a cover on top of the chimney prevents rain, snow, debris, and animals from entering…while still allowing smoke and gases to escape. Chimney caps are a must for any flue system.
• Chimney Relining: Installing a new liner inside the chimney flue can ensure safer operation, and is often necessary if the original liner is damaged, missing, or no longer compatible with a new fuel type.
• HeatShield® Relining: HeatShield® is a method of relining a chimney using a ceramic or refractory coating system to repair and restore the chimney liner…without investing in a full replacement. Ask us if it’s right for you.
• Chimney Lining Resurfacing: In addition to HeatShield®, we offer FireGuard, which is another way of applying a new surface layer inside the chimney flue. This helps to repair damage and improve the flue’s integrity and efficiency.
• Fireplace Damper Repair: We can fix or replace your fireplace damper – the component that controls airflow in and out of the chimney.

We also address and fix water-related issues in chimneys. Water is masonry’s biggest foe, so any damages should be addressed as soon as possible. These services include:

• Chimney Waterproofing: We can apply a waterproofing sealant to the exterior of the chimney brick and mortar to prevent water penetration and damage. Since your bricks are especially absorbent, this is essential for keeping your system in tip-top shape.
• Chimney Flashing Repair: Flashing is the metal barrier that seals the joint between the chimney and roof, preventing water leaks. We can ensure yours is installed correctly and working reliably.
• Brick & Mortar Repair: Fixing damaged bricks and mortar joints is imperative to restore structural integrity and appearance – and these aren’t repairs that should ever be put on the back burner.

All in all, cracks, leaks, or structural damage in chimneys and masonry can lead to serious issues, which can cause extensive damage and compromise the integrity of the structure. Additionally, damaged chimneys can pose significant fire hazards, as gaps or blockages may lead to improper ventilation of smoke and gases.

Gas Fireplace Servicing: We Can Help With That Too

Gas fireplaces are efficient and low-maintenance, but – just like wood systems – they need regular servicing. Yearly maintenance and inspection services ensure your gas system operates safely and efficiently for the long haul – this typically includes cleaning, checking for gas leaks, inspecting the ignition system, and verifying that all components are in good working order.

Whatever your gas fireplace needs to stay in tip-top shape, we can help. Count on us for:

• Gas Log Maintenance: This specifically involves the upkeep of the ceramic or refractory logs used in gas fireplaces. We’ll clean the logs to remove soot and debris, inspect them for damage, and make sure they are correctly positioned for optimal appearance and performance.
• Gas Insert Installation: Installing a gas insert involves fitting a gas system into an existing fireplace setup. These inserts provide efficient heat and a realistic flame, while converting a currently inefficient fireplace into a more convenient and cleaner-burning option.
• Gas Fireplace Repair: We specialize in troubleshooting and fixing issues that arise with gas fireplaces. This can include repairing or replacing faulty components – burners, valves, pilot lights, thermostats, etc. – to restore proper function and safety.
• Gas Appliance Relining: Lining your gas appliance with an appropriate liner ensures proper ventilation, enhances safety, and improves the efficiency of the gas appliance by preventing exhaust gases from leaking into the home.
