Chimney Services
Tuck pointingYears of weathering and moisture penetration frequently cause cracks in the mortar joints of your chimney / brick masonry. Removing old deteriorated mortar, tuck pointing with matching mortar, and applying masonry sealant will keep your brick looking new and protected from the elements.

Crown RepairThe top portion of your chimney is called the crown. This serves as a protective barrier from moisture penetration against the elements. In many cases crowns begin to crack and deteriorate after years of exposure to precipitation causing leaks in or around the fireplace. This common problem can be resolved by having a new poured (engineered) fiber- crete crown installed as shown in the image above. Upon completion of this repair a special silicone is used to ensure an air / water tight seal.

Covers, Flues, & FlashingMany leaks can be caused by one or more areas of deterioration outlined in the image above. Our services include stainless steel flue covers (chimney cap with a lifetime warranty), flue liner replacement, flashing repair, and general masonry sealing to ensure you can enjoy the warmth of your fireplace without unwanted leaks.
