Chimney

Expert Chimney Contractor in Rockland & Westchester

Chimneys in Rockland and Westchester Counties face extreme seasonal stress. Winter snow builds up around flues and flashing. Spring rain finds every crack in aging mortar. Summer heat expands joints and pulls apart caps. Don’t take care of a chimney and it’ll leak, clog, maybe even catch fire. We’ve been at this in the area for 20+ years, fixing, cleaning, rebuilding. Work’s done safely so the air moves right. Wood or gas, what it needs depends on the chimney, the weather, and the fuel.

Chimney Services We Offer

We handle a complete range of chimney services built for residential and commercial systems.
Chimney Repair or Replacement

When bricks crack, the crown wears down, the chimney needs work. We fix or rebuild it using solid materials and make sure it’s sealed so water and smoke stay out.

Chimney Inspection

National Fire Protection Association guidelines recommend yearly inspections. Our team checks for creosote buildup, liner damage, animal nests, or structural failure. Video chimney inspection is available for complex flue systems.

Chimney Flashing Repair
Leaky flashing is a top cause of attic mold. We reseal or replace flashing with copper or galvanized steel, and always secure it under shingles, not over, to prevent rain intrusion.
Chimney Cap Repair
A missing or warped cap lets animals, rain, and debris block your flue. We install or repair stainless steel or copper chimney caps to prevent downdrafts, carbon monoxide risk, and wildlife nesting.
Chimney Tuckpointing
When mortar joints crumble, the chimney loses strength. We use tuckpointing to restore missing mortar with exact-match compounds. This keeps moisture out and improves stability without full rebuild.

Chimney Materials & Techniques That Last

We use the following materials and techniques:
Flue Liners

Stainless steel or ceramic liners reduce smoke risk and improve draft.

Crown Coatings

Elastomeric or concrete crowns protect the flue top and deflect rainwater.

Masonry Sealant

We apply vapor-permeable waterproofing to stop moisture while allowing brick to breathe.

Video Inspections

Internal video cameras help detect flue damage before smoke issues begin.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most chimneys should be cleaned once a year. If you use wood every day, it’s safer to have it done twice a year.
Leaks usually come from loose flashing, a cracked crown, or bricks that have started to break especially after a rough winter of freezing and thawing.
