Your chimney works like it should. No more water stains on your ceiling. No more drafts pulling cold air down your flue. No more worrying about carbon monoxide or house fires.
You get a chimney that handles Middle Island’s freeze-thaw cycles without cracking. One that keeps rain and snow out of your home. And peace of mind knowing your family’s safe when you light that fire.
We fix the actual problem, not just the symptoms. That means fewer callbacks, lower costs, and a chimney that lasts.
SkyLuxe Construction has been fixing chimneys in Suffolk County for decades. We’re not just chimney specialists—we’re full-service exterior contractors who understand how your roof, siding, and chimney work together.
That matters in Middle Island. The salt air, heavy rains, and brutal freeze-thaw cycles here destroy chimneys faster than most places. We’ve seen what works and what fails.
We’re licensed, insured, and locally owned. When we fix your chimney, you’re getting craftsmen who live and work in your community.
First, we inspect everything. Not just the obvious damage—we check the flue liner, examine the crown and cap, test the flashing, and look for hidden water damage. Most problems start small and get expensive fast.
Then we explain what’s wrong and what it’ll cost to fix. No surprises, no upselling. Just honest assessment and fair pricing.
Finally, we fix it using materials that can handle Suffolk County weather. Quality masonry work, proper flashing installation, and caps that actually keep water out. We clean up completely and make sure everything works before we leave.

Every chimney repair includes a complete inspection of your entire system. We fix chimney leaks, replace damaged flashing, repair cracked crowns, and rebuild deteriorated masonry. If your chimney cap is missing or damaged, we install one that fits properly and keeps weather out.
In Middle Island, we see a lot of mortar damage from freeze-thaw cycles. We repoint joints with mortar that matches your existing brick and can handle our climate. For older chimneys, we often recommend flue liner replacement to improve safety and efficiency.
We also handle firebox repairs and damper replacement. If your chimney needs major structural work, we can rebuild sections or complete chimneys. Everything comes with our workmanship warranty.
Chimney repair costs in Middle Island typically range from $300 for minor mortar repairs to $8,000 for major rebuilds. Most homeowners spend between $800-$2,500 for common issues like flashing repairs, crown work, or repointing.
The wide range depends on what’s actually wrong. A simple chimney cap replacement might cost $400-$800, while extensive masonry rebuilding can run $5,000-$10,000. Water damage repairs usually fall somewhere in the middle.
We provide written estimates for all work before starting. No hidden fees, no surprise charges. You’ll know exactly what the repair costs and why it’s necessary.
Look for white staining on the outside of your chimney—that’s efflorescence, which means water is getting into your masonry. Water stains on your ceiling or walls near the chimney indicate flashing problems or crown damage.
If you smell dampness or see rust on your damper, that’s another red flag. Poor airflow when starting fires, or smoke entering your room instead of going up the chimney, usually means blockages or structural issues.
Don’t ignore small problems. That tiny leak or minor crack will become major damage during Middle Island’s next freeze-thaw cycle. Early repairs cost hundreds, not thousands.
Absolutely. Suffolk County’s coastal climate is brutal on chimneys, but we’ve been dealing with salt air and freeze-thaw damage for decades. We know which materials hold up and which don’t.
Most weather damage starts with water penetration. Our repairs focus on keeping moisture out through proper crown work, quality flashing installation, and chimney caps that actually seal. We use mortars and sealers designed for coastal conditions.
For severe freeze-thaw damage, we often rebuild affected sections with more durable materials. The goal is a chimney that handles our climate for years, not just until the next storm.
Yes, we handle emergency chimney repairs throughout Suffolk County. If your chimney is leaking during a storm, has structural damage, or poses immediate safety risks, call us right away.
Emergency situations include active water leaks, damaged chimney caps allowing animals inside, or visible cracks that could worsen quickly. We prioritize safety issues and can provide temporary weatherproofing while scheduling permanent repairs.
For true emergencies, we typically respond within 24 hours. Non-emergency repairs are usually scheduled within a few days to a week, depending on weather and our current workload.
Properly done chimney repairs in Middle Island should last 15-25 years, depending on the type of work and local weather exposure. Quality masonry work, good materials, and proper installation make the difference.
Flashing repairs typically last 20+ years if installed correctly. Crown rebuilds and repointing work should handle 15-20 years of Suffolk County weather. Chimney caps usually need replacement every 10-15 years due to weather exposure.
The key is using materials designed for our climate and doing the work right the first time. Cheap repairs fail quickly here. Quality work costs more upfront but saves money long-term.
Chimney cleaning removes soot, creosote, and debris from inside your flue. It’s maintenance that should happen annually. Chimney repair fixes structural problems like cracks, leaks, or damaged components.
You might need both. A dirty chimney can hide damage, and a damaged chimney won’t clean properly. During our inspections, we check for both cleaning needs and repair issues.
Think of cleaning as regular maintenance, like changing your car’s oil. Repairs are fixing actual problems—like replacing worn brake pads. Both are important, but they serve different purposes for chimney safety and function.
