Chimney Repair

Chimneys take a beating from freeze-thaw, wind and rain. We repair them properly.

Chimney Repair project by Solid Stone Masonry & Construction

What we do

We repoint eroded mortar, rebuild crowns and caps, install lead crickets, and repair or replace damaged brick and stone.

Every repair starts with a full inspection — we look at flashing, crown, cap, liner condition and the chimney's lean or settlement.

We match existing brick and mortar color so the repair disappears into the house.

Questions we get asked

How do I know my chimney needs repointing?

If mortar joints are crumbling, bricks are loose, or water is getting in, it is time.

Do you install chimney crickets?

Yes — crickets redirect water and snow around the chimney and are essential behind wide chimneys.
