Services
Chimney Cleaning
Regular chimney cleaning prevents fire hazards and ensures efficient operation. Our CSIA-certified technicians remove creosote, soot, and debris from wood, gas, and pellet-burning systems. We use industrial vacuums and HEPA filters to protect your home from dust exposure.
Masonry Repairs
Masonry repairs restore structural integrity to chimneys affected by weather damage. We perform tuckpointing, crown rebuilding, and smoke chamber parging using materials that match your existing masonry for seamless results.
Chimney Relining
Chimney relining ensures safe venting of combustion gases. We install stainless steel liners for damaged clay or aluminum systems, improving efficiency and preventing carbon monoxide leaks while meeting NFPA safety standards.
Chimney Inspections
Annual inspections identify hidden chimney issues before they escalate. Our Level 1-3 inspections follow CSIA guidelines, using video technology to assess flue liners, fireboxes, and structural components for safety compliance.
Water Leak Repair
Water leak repairs prevent masonry damage and interior water intrusion. We address crown deterioration, flashing failures, and mortar cracks while applying waterproofing treatments to protect against future moisture penetration.
