• Chimney Waterproofing: Speaking of waterproofing measures, did you know we could apply a special chimney waterproofing sealant that creates a protective barrier on your chimney’s exterior masonry? This sealant acts as a shield against rain, snow, and moisture, significantly reducing the risk of water damage and preserving the integrity of your chimney for years to come.

We use a few different methods and techniques, including tuckpointing, brick replacement, and mortar repair.

We carefully work to match the existing brick and mortar, seamlessly blending our repairs with the original construction.
• FireGuard: The FireGuard system is a patented system designed to correct mortar joints, misaligned flue liner sections, and fractures and cracks within flue liners. The system employs a pinpoint vibration to penetrate mortar joints and fractures as well as to help distribute the ceramic cost for resurfacing.
