Our core chimney and fireplace services include:



Chimney Tuckpointing and Repointing:


We carefully remove deteriorated or crumbling mortar from the affected joints and replace it with fresh mortar suited to the existing masonry. This process helps restore the strength and appearance of the chimney while addressing areas where weather exposure has caused the mortar to deteriorate over time.

Partial and Complete Chimney Rebuilds:


When chimney masonry has extensive damage or deterioration, affected sections may need to be removed and rebuilt. As part of our Chimney Service in Brighton NY, we carefully remove compromised masonry and reconstruct the damaged areas using suitable brick and masonry materials while maintaining the existing structure and appearance as closely as possible.

A damaged chimney crown can allow moisture to reach the masonry below and contribute to further deterioration. We repair or replace deteriorated chimney crowns with properly constructed masonry features designed to help direct water away from the chimney and protect the surrounding brickwork from continued weather exposure.

Cracked, chipped, spalled, or severely damaged bricks can affect the appearance and condition of a chimney. We carefully remove damaged bricks and replace them with suitable materials while considering the existing brick size, color, texture, and overall appearance to create a consistent finished result.
