Professional Chimney Inspection & Repair

Your chimney is more than a picturesque feature; it's a critical component of your home's heating system. A poorly maintained chimney can lead to serious risks, from water damage to toxic fumes entering your home. Our experts provide thorough inspections and durable repairs to ensure your chimney is safe, efficient, and structurally sound.

Signs You Need Chimney Service

  • Crumbling or flaking brick and mortar (spalling).

  • White, chalky stains on the exterior brick (efflorescence).

  • A rusted damper or firebox.

  • Visible cracks in the chimney crown (the top cement surface).

  • Water leaks around the chimney inside your home or attic.

Our Detailed Chimney Process:

1. Safety Inspection

We conduct a top-to-bottom inspection, checking the condition of the bricks, mortar joints, flashing, crown, and flue liner.

2. Diagnosis & Plan

We provide you with a clear report of our findings, with photos, and recommend a course of action, from simple waterproofing to a full rebuild.

3. Repointing & Masonry Repair

We carefully grind out failing mortar joints and replace them with new mortar that matches the original, restoring structural integrity.

4. Flashing Repair/Replacement

We repair or replace the metal flashing system around the base of the chimney—the most common source of chimney leaks.

5. Waterproofing

After repairs are complete, we can apply a specialized vapour-permeable waterproof sealant to protect the masonry from future water damage.
