Chimney Masonry Repair Services

What's Included in Our Service

Every chimney repair job includes a thorough assessment of your entire system. We don’t just patch the obvious problem – we identify what caused it and make sure it doesn’t happen again.

Our chimney masonry repair covers everything from repointing mortar joints to rebuilding damaged sections. We handle chimney leak repair, crown replacement, and structural issues that other contractors often miss or ignore.

You also get access to our retail stove store if you need new components or want to upgrade your fireplace system. We offer in-house financing to make larger repairs manageable, and we’re flexible on pricing without relying on gimmicky discounts that usually mean inflated starting prices.

How much does chimney repair typically cost in Greenville?

Chimney repair costs depend on what’s actually wrong with your system. Simple mortar repointing might run a few hundred dollars, while major structural repairs or chimney rebuilds can cost several thousand. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what you’re looking at before any work begins. Most homeowners are surprised to learn that catching problems early saves them significant money compared to waiting until small issues become major structural problems. We’re upfront about costs and offer in-house financing for larger repairs that protect your home’s value.

What are the most common chimney problems in Rhode Island?

Water damage tops the list. Rhode Island’s freeze-thaw cycles crack mortar joints and chimney crowns, letting water seep in where it doesn’t belong. You’ll see this as stains on interior walls or ceilings near your fireplace. Damaged flue liners are another big issue – they crack over time and create safety hazards. We also see a lot of problems with chimney caps and dampers that don’t seal properly. The salt air near the coast accelerates deterioration of metal components. Most of these problems start small but get expensive fast if you don’t address them properly.

How do I know if my chimney needs professional repair?

Water stains around your fireplace are the biggest red flag. If you see discoloration on walls or ceilings near your chimney, water is getting in somewhere it shouldn’t. White staining on the outside of your chimney (called efflorescence) means water is moving through the masonry. Rust on the damper or firebox, animals getting into your chimney, or a strong odor coming from your fireplace when it’s not in use all indicate problems that need professional attention. If your mortar joints are cracking or pieces of your chimney are falling off, don’t wait – these problems only get worse and more expensive.

Can you repair chimneys year-round or only during certain seasons?

We handle chimney repairs throughout the year, though timing can affect the approach. Most masonry work requires temperatures above freezing for proper curing, so extensive repointing or rebuilding typically happens in warmer months. However, emergency repairs like leak fixes or safety hazards get addressed regardless of season – we just adapt our methods. Fall is actually ideal for chimney work because you’re getting ready for heating season and weather is still cooperative. Spring is popular too, after winter damage becomes apparent. We recommend not waiting if you have active leaks or safety concerns, regardless of the time of year.

Do you handle both gas and wood fireplace chimney repairs?

Yes, we work on chimneys for all fuel types – wood, gas, pellet, and oil. Each system has different requirements and potential problems. Gas fireplaces still need properly functioning chimneys and venting systems, even though people sometimes think they’re maintenance-free. We’re experienced with direct vent systems, traditional gas logs that use the chimney, and everything in between. Our retail stove store means we understand the equipment as well as the chimney systems that serve them. Whether you’re burning wood in a traditional fireplace or running a high-efficiency gas insert, we know how to keep your chimney functioning safely and efficiently.

What makes your chimney repair different from other local contractors?

Our technicians are CSI certified, which most chimney contractors in the area aren’t. This certification means we’re trained to identify problems other contractors miss and fix them according to industry standards, not shortcuts. We’ve been working as the same team since 2000, so you’re not getting random subcontractors who may or may not know what they’re doing. We also offer more comprehensive service – from diagnosis through repair to equipment sales through our retail store. You’re not dealing with a company that just patches problems and disappears. We provide free estimates without pressure tactics and offer in-house financing to make necessary repairs manageable for your budget.
