Chimney Construction

What This Service Involves

A new chimney must handle heat, weather, and structural loads while venting safely, and we build to every relevant code. Our masons construct the firebox, flue, and exterior masonry with proper clearances, flashing, and a rain-shedding crown and cap. Materials are chosen to endure constant moisture without spalling. The finished chimney performs safely and complements your home's exterior.
