When the facing of chimney bricks begins to flake off or mortar starts to fall out, structural problems can result. If the cause of the deterioration is remedied quickly, many times a chimney’s life can be extended. But there are times when a chimney is beyond repair and requires a complete knock-down and rebuild. The chimney is exposed to the elements year-round and subject to large temperature swings and weather conditions. The flue vents out extremely hot gases and smoke whenever in use, and these extremes do take their toll over the years.

Whether you need major or minor repairs, we will be happy to speak with you on the phone first and then schedule an inspection or estimate to fully examine the situation prior to providing our written estimate. Remember, all technicians who work on your chimney, stove, or venting system are fully trained. We are licensed and insured in the State of Connecticut to perform ALL fireplace and chimney repair services. We are well-versed in all types of potential problems and know the proper course of action to repair or prevent further damage.

Many times, chimney rebuilding doesn’t involve brick at all. Chimney fires and wood rot can affect wood-framed or wood-sided chimney chase structures and chimney systems, which will need to be restored and rebuilt. If you have had some serious issues with your chimney, whether it’s a wood chimney chase structure or a full masonry structure, call our chimney experts today!

Many chimneys exhibit white staining on the outside surface. This is called efflorescence and is caused by water mixed with leaching salts that are flowing out from the inside of the chimney. The watertight seal that needs to exist in the system has been compromised, and the chimney is in danger of additional serious damage.

If you see or feel leaks around your chimney, or notice that your ceiling suddenly has water stains, you may need to replace the flashing on your chimney. Rain or shine, your chimney is always exposed to the elements. Prolonged water penetration can cause costly damage to it. This is especially true when chimneys go through repeated freeze-thaw cycles, where water that has already penetrated the masonry freezes, expands, and then thaws.

We offer both chimney waterproofing and flashing repair services to keep your chimney free of potential leaks.

Does your fireplace seem extra smoky? We can help identify the cause of this problem, which usually occurs for a variety of different reasons. Whether it’s a damper or chimney cap problem, a dirty chimney, a faulty fireplace design, or another cause, we’ll figure out the source of the smoke and make your fireplace enjoyable again.

The materials that make up a fireplace deteriorate over time. Our experts can identify and replace any broken or failing parts, including the chimney cap, dampers, flues, firebox, and more. Fireplace repair and restoration help to save energy, reduce heating costs, and maintain the value of your home!

A fireplace insert is an enclosed device placed in your fireplace, which provides a cleaner, more eco-friendly heating solution for your home. If you’re thinking of adding one to your existing fireplace, we can install the connections within the fireplace to ensure that yours is working properly and efficiently.

Why install a clean-out door? Chimney clean-out doors provide easy access to the ash drop below the firebox in masonry fireplaces. They are placed on the exterior wall of the chimney, allowing you to easily remove creosote and ash from the chimney that builds up over time. This will help extend the life and health of your chimney!

We can also help if you need appliance thimbles installed.

Looking to build a new fireplace or chimney? Let us handle the job! Our team can construct chimneys and fireplaces of multiple sizes and styles to fit your home perfectly.

A video inspection provides an in-depth, thorough scan of the interior of your chimney. Using a camera allows us to inspect the chimney from a range of just a few inches instead of just looking from the top or bottom. A video inspection is a good idea if previous chimney damage (or a fire) has occurred or if our technicians suspect certain problems.

A chimney cover (also known as a chimney cap) helps to reduce moisture, prevent downdrafts, and keep animals from nesting or inhabiting your chimney. Moisture causes deterioration, and animals can certainly cause destruction.

We will measure, recommend, and install the most efficient cover for your home. Having a proper chimney cover installed can save you the headache of spending thousands in the future on repairs!
