Chimney Repair & Rebuild

Your chimney is one of the most exposed structures on your home, constantly battling weather, temperature changes, and the corrosive effects of combustion gases. Over time, even the most solidly built chimneys develop problems that require professional repair.

Professional chimney repair addresses issues ranging from minor mortar joint deterioration to complete structural rebuilds. Experienced masonry contractors can assess whether your chimney needs simple repointing, crown repair, or a full rebuild from the roofline up.

Common chimney problems include cracked or missing mortar joints, damaged chimney crowns, deteriorating flashing, spalling bricks, and leaning structures. Left unaddressed, these issues can lead to water infiltration, interior damage, and even structural failure.

A qualified chimney repair contractor will thoroughly inspect your chimney, identify all problem areas, and recommend the most cost-effective repair approach. Many repairs can be completed in a day or two, while full rebuilds may take longer depending on the chimney's size and condition.

When hiring a chimney repair contractor, look for experience with your specific chimney type, proper licensing and insurance, and a portfolio of completed projects. Before and after photos are particularly helpful for evaluating a contractor's work quality.
