About this service
Over time, weather and heat cycles break down the mortar joints and stone or brick surfaces of your chimney. Masonry repair involves tuckpointing, which is replacing decayed mortar, or repairing cracked exterior surfaces to keep water out. The final cost is typically based on the total area needing repair and the accessibility of the chimney stack. Proper maintenance protects the structural integrity of the entire system.

Summer is the quietest time for chimney work, making it the perfect opportunity to schedule repairs without the seasonal rush. Technicians have more flexibility to handle masonry work, cap installations, or flue liner replacements. Getting your maintenance done while the weather is dry ensures you are ready the moment the first chilly night arrives.
