Chimney Masonry Repairs
After an inspection, we may advise you that the chimney doesn’t require rebuilding but rather just some smart repair work. This can involve:
Brick replacement: We’ll add strong new bricks where old bricks have begun to spall, take on water and deteriorate.
Tuckpointing: This process scrapes out decayed mortar between the bricks and adds a fresh new compound to strengthen the entire chimney structure.
Chimney crown repair: The protective crown at the top of your chimney may be cracked and deteriorated. We can repair minor damage or build an entirely new crown.
Chimney waterproofing: After repair work is done, we’ll seal-coat the masonry and crown with a waterproofing solution to prevent the intrusion of moisture in the future.
