Services
Chimney Relining
Chimney relining restores damaged flue liners that safely vent combustion gases. We install durable stainless steel or terra cotta liners to prevent heat transfer and ensure proper exhaust removal. This critical service protects homes from fire hazards and carbon monoxide leaks while meeting modern building codes.
Fireplace Maintenance
Our maintenance includes thorough creosote removal and component inspection. Annual cleanings prevent dangerous buildup, while checking for cracks or blockages ensures safe operation. We address wear on dampers and firebox components to maintain efficiency and prevent smoke infiltration into homes.
Chimney Cap Replacement
We install stainless steel and copper caps that prevent water damage, animal entry, and ember escape. These caps protect masonry from moisture absorption while acting as spark arrestors. Our caps come with lifetime guarantees and include optional top-mounted dampers for enhanced energy efficiency.
Inspection
Comprehensive inspections identify structural issues, liner damage, and blockages. We examine mortar integrity, check for water intrusion signs, and assess appliance connections. This service helps homeowners prioritize repairs and maintain optimal chimney function year-round.
Waterproofing
Our waterproofing solutions seal masonry against rain penetration while allowing vapor escape. We apply specialized coatings to crowns and exterior surfaces, preventing freeze-thaw damage and prolonging chimney lifespan in Memphis' variable climate.
