What Homeowners Are Saying

“We had our chimney repaired recently due to a flue fire. They were one of a few who came out for a free estimate. They were so knowledgeable and hard working. They handled our homeowners insurance, so much so, we never had to talk with the agent. Everything was done in a few weeks, very professionally, with excellent communication. Their process of relining our chimney is ingenious, and patented by the owner’s father years ago. If you look up local news, they have been on a few channels, highlighting their chimney expertise. There was not a hint of soot or dirt left in our house. We are using our chimney again, and all is well here because of these fine people. I would recommend them for anything in their arsenal, not just chimney repair.”

Chimney Repair FAQs

  • How do I know if my chimney needs repair?

    Watch for signs like water leaking around your fireplace, cracked bricks or mortar, rust stains, or a strong smoky odor inside your home. If your chimney leans or has visible damage, it’s time to call a professional.

  • How long does chimney repair take?

    Most chimney repairs are completed in 3–10 days, depending on the extent of the damage. Smaller fixes like crown resealing are quicker, while full masonry restoration or relining may take longer.

  • Can chimney damage cause leaks in my home?

    Yes. Cracks in the crown, deteriorating mortar, or faulty flashing can allow water to seep into your home, causing stains, mold, and structural damage. Addressing these issues quickly helps prevent costly repairs.

  • Do you repair stucco chimneys too?

    We do. Our team restores stucco chimneys by fixing cracks and moisture damage while preserving their original appearance.
