Chimney · New York & New Jersey

Chimney Repair

From a few failing mortar joints to rebuilding the top of the chimney, we repair the masonry, crown, cap and flashing that keep water out of your chimney and your home.

Available in New York & all of New Jersey

A chimney takes more weather than almost any other part of a house. Rain, wind and years of freezing and thawing work on the mortar, the brick and the crown until water starts getting in. Once it does, damage speeds up.

We repair chimneys across all of New Jersey and our New York counties. Typical work includes:

  • Repointing: cutting out worn mortar and replacing it
  • Brick repair: replacing cracked, flaking or loose brick
  • Crown repair and rebuilding: sealing cracks or forming a new crown
  • Chimney caps: installing or replacing caps to keep rain and animals out
  • Flashing: repairing or replacing the flashing where the chimney meets the roof
  • Rebuilding the top section when the upper courses of brick are too far gone

We’ll show you what’s wrong, explain your options and give you a free estimate before any work starts.

Chimney Repair

Signs your chimney needs repair

  • Missing or crumbling mortar

    Open joints let water into the masonry, where freezing pushes bricks apart.

  • Cracked crown

    A cracked or crumbling crown lets water straight down into the chimney.

  • Leaks around the chimney

    Stains on ceilings or walls next to the chimney often mean failing flashing.

  • Loose or leaning brick

    Brick that has shifted, flaked or loosened at the top of the chimney needs attention.

Questions

Chimney Repair
questions, answered.

Can you rebuild just the top of a chimney?

Often, yes. When damage is concentrated at the top, where weather hits hardest, we can take that section down and rebuild it rather than the whole chimney.

Do you repair chimneys in New Jersey?

Yes. Chimney repair is available in every New Jersey county, as well as our New York counties.

Will you also fix the roof around the chimney?

In New York, yes. We handle both the chimney and the roof. Flashing repairs at the chimney are part of our chimney work in both states.
