Trusted Chimney Repairs In Arlington Heights, IL

How We Fix Chimneys

Since 1969, we’ve repaired and restored our customers' chimneys to make them safer, more efficient, and beautiful again. Here are some ways we can help.

Masonry Repair

Cracked bricks and crumbling mortar often start small and worsen over time. We replace damaged bricks and perform tuckpointing to add mortar where it has fallen away. This helps prevent water leaks and structural instability.

Chimney Rebuilding Arlington Heights, IL

Chimneys severely damaged by storms, lightning, falling trees, water deterioration, or neglect need to be rebuilt properly and to code. We’ll deliver a strong new chimney that will serve you well and look fantastic for many years.

Chimney Liner Repair and Relining

Chimney liners, whether made from clay tiles, a poured-in-place compound, or stainless steel, can suffer damage over time. Cracks and breaks in a liner can let flames and dangerous combustion gases escape. We repair minor chimney liner damage and regularly install powerful new stainless-steel chimney liners for solid protection.

Chimney Crown Repair and Rebuilding

Concrete chimney crowns protect the bricks beneath them and the chimney's interior spaces. When damaged, they can let water damage the masonry and cause problems for various internal parts of the chimney and home. Our Arlington Heights, IL, chimney repair team patches cracked crowns and rebuilds them when necessary.
