Chimney services

Five services, and most jobs are a combination of two or three of them. A chimney that is letting water in usually needs the crown and the flashing looked at together, because water finds the weakest of the two and a repair to only one just moves the problem.

Every one of these starts the same way — someone goes up and looks, and you get photographs. Nothing on this page gets quoted over the phone.

Chimney Inspection

A camera down the flue, a look at the roof and the firebox, and a written report with photographs of everything we find.

Chimney Flashing Repair

Work we refer out

We do not do full chimney rebuilds below the roofline, structural underpinning, or gas appliance installation. When a chimney needs one of those we say so and point you at someone who does it properly, rather than taking the job and learning on your house.

Where we work

Not sure what's wrong with your chimney?

Most people call us because of a smell, a stain on the ceiling, or a home inspector's note they don't understand. Tell us what you're seeing and we'll tell you what it usually means — before anyone books anything.
