Fireplace & Chimney,
with care in every detail.
Brick and stone fireplaces add a focal point that belongs to the home. We assess damaged masonry, worn joints and the details around the hearth or chimney, then discuss appropriate restoration and repair options.
Water entry and loose masonry need their causes addressed. We look at crowns, caps, pointing and connections while coordinating any specialist inspection needed for flues or fire safety. Changes to the fireplace system must follow the requirements for that system.

Good questions.
Clear answers.
Local codes vary. Site-specific requirements are confirmed before work begins.
Loose mortar, damaged bricks, staining and a cracked crown can indicate deterioration. A qualified inspection helps identify masonry and fire-safety concerns.
An appropriate cap helps keep rain, debris and animals out. It must be suitable for the chimney system and installed without obstructing safe ventilation.
There is no universal schedule; exposure, material and previous treatments matter. An appropriate breathable product may be considered after the condition and source of moisture are assessed.
A suitable liner contains combustion products and helps protect the chimney structure. Inspection and any changes should be handled by qualified professionals for the heating system.
Masonry fireplaces are built from brick or stone components on site. Prefabricated units are engineered systems that must be installed and maintained according to their manufacturer requirements.
Water may enter through damaged flashing, crowns, mortar or caps. Finding the entry point is essential before choosing repairs.
