From routine sweeping to major masonry work, here's a closer look at every chimney service we offer — including our $99 Level 2 drone inspection.
Find out what's really going on inside your chimney before it becomes a bigger problem.
Creosote and soot can accumulate inside a chimney over time. Our chimney sweeping service helps maintain a cleaner flue and can reduce hazards associated with combustible deposits, keeping your fireplace or heating appliance running the way it should.
A Level 1 inspection is a standard visual inspection of the readily accessible portions of the chimney. A Level 2 inspection goes further, adding an internal camera inspection of the flue and liner along with evaluation of the firebox, smoke chamber, and damper. We also use drone-assisted exterior inspection, where practical, to safely view hard-to-reach areas.
A properly installed chimney cap helps keep rainwater, snow, and debris out, reduces the chance of animals entering the chimney, and helps protect the chimney structure from moisture-related damage.
The crown protects the top of the chimney masonry from weather exposure. Cracks can allow water to penetrate the masonry, and freeze/thaw cycles can make the damage worse. We repair and replace crowns to help keep water out of the chimney structure.
Chimney flashing creates a weather-resistant seal where the chimney meets the roof. Damaged or improperly installed flashing can allow water to enter the roof structure and attic, leading to ceiling stains, rot, mold, and damaged insulation. We repair and replace flashing to help keep that seal intact.
The liner is an important safety component that helps protect chimney masonry from heat and combustion byproducts, properly contain exhaust, and support the safe operation of the fireplace or heating appliance. We install and repair liners as part of a safe, well-functioning chimney system.
Over time, mortar joints between bricks can deteriorate from weather exposure. Tuckpointing repoints those joints, helping restore the strength and appearance of your chimney's masonry.
Damaged or deteriorated brick and masonry can compromise the structural integrity of your chimney over time. Our masonry repair services address damage to help protect the chimney's structure.
The smoke chamber is a critical transition area between the fireplace and the chimney flue. We repair cracks, gaps, and deteriorated parging or refractory material in this area to support proper function.
For chimneys with significant structural deterioration, a full or partial rebuild may be the appropriate solution. We rebuild chimneys to help restore both safe function and appearance.
We apply water-repellent treatments designed to help reduce moisture-related masonry damage, giving your chimney added protection against the elements.
Chimney leaks can come from several sources — the cap, crown, flashing, or masonry itself. We diagnose the source of water intrusion and repair it to help prevent further damage to your home.
