Hear from Our Customers
Your fireplace works like it should. No more smoke backing up into your living room or cold drafts stealing your heat. No more wondering if that crack in the crown is going to turn into a major water leak this winter.
When your chimney repair is done right, you get peace of mind every time you light a fire. Your heating system runs more efficiently because everything is properly sealed and vented. And you avoid those surprise repair bills that hit when small problems become big disasters.
The result? A chimney that keeps your family safe and your home comfortable, season after season.
We’ve been fixing chimneys for Suffolk County families who need work done right the first time. We’re not the biggest company around, and that’s exactly why our customers choose us.
As a family-owned business, we show up when we say we will, explain what needs to be fixed without the sales pitch, and stand behind every repair. Our team knows how Long Island’s brutal winters and salty coastal air affect chimneys, so we fix problems with materials and methods that actually last.
Whether you’re in Northampton or anywhere else in Suffolk County, you’re getting the same careful attention to detail and honest communication that’s built our reputation.
First, we inspect your entire chimney system—not just the obvious problem. We check the crown, flashing, masonry, liner, and everything else that could be causing issues or might fail soon. You get a clear explanation of what we found, what needs to be fixed now, and what you should watch for later.
Then we do the actual repair work using materials that can handle Suffolk County’s weather conditions. Whether it’s repointing mortar joints, replacing damaged flashing, or rebuilding a deteriorated crown, we fix it to last. No shortcuts, no cheap materials that’ll fail in two years.
After the work is complete, we walk you through what we did and give you maintenance tips to keep your chimney in good shape. You’ll know exactly what to look for and when to call us back.

We handle every type of chimney problem Suffolk County homeowners face. Chimney leak repair when water is getting into your house. Chimney repointing to fix crumbling mortar before it becomes a structural issue. Chimney crown repair and chimney cap replacement to protect your chimney from the top down.
For more serious damage, we do complete chimney flashing repair, cracked chimney repair, and chimney flue repair. Our masonry work matches your existing brick and mortar so repairs blend seamlessly with your home’s original construction.
Northampton homeowners deal with freeze-thaw cycles that crack mortar joints and coastal moisture that accelerates deterioration. We’ve seen it all, and we know how to fix it permanently. From small firebox repairs to complete chimney restoration, you’re getting work that’s built to handle whatever Long Island weather throws at it.
Most chimney repairs in Northampton range from $160 to $750, with the average homeowner spending around $455. Simple fixes like sealing small cracks or replacing a chimney cap are on the lower end, while major repairs like crown rebuilding or extensive masonry work cost more.
The final cost depends on what’s actually wrong with your chimney, how much damage there is, and what materials we need to use. Suffolk County’s coastal conditions mean we often see water damage that requires more extensive repairs than homeowners initially expect.
We always give you a detailed estimate upfront so there are no surprises. Early repairs cost significantly less than waiting until small problems become major structural issues.
Water leaks are the biggest issue we see, usually caused by damaged flashing, cracked crowns, or missing chimney caps. Suffolk County’s coastal location means chimneys get hit with salt air, heavy rains, and freeze-thaw cycles that crack mortar joints and deteriorate masonry.
We also see a lot of chimney liner problems, especially in older homes where the original clay liners have cracked or broken. Poor ventilation issues are common too, causing smoke to back up into houses instead of drafting properly up the chimney.
Spalling bricks—where the brick surface flakes off due to moisture damage—is another frequent problem. These issues often start small but can quickly become expensive if not addressed promptly.
Annual inspections are recommended for any chimney, but Suffolk County homeowners should be especially diligent because of our harsh weather conditions. If you use your fireplace regularly, you definitely need yearly inspections to check for creosote buildup and structural damage.
Even if you rarely use your fireplace, your chimney still needs attention. Gas and oil heating systems vent through chimneys too, and they can develop problems that aren’t immediately obvious. Storm damage, animal intrusion, and normal wear from weather can create safety hazards.
The best time to schedule an inspection is late spring or early summer, before the busy fall season when everyone suddenly remembers they need chimney work done. Early scheduling also gives you time to get repairs completed before winter.
Most chimney problems can be fixed with targeted repairs rather than complete rebuilding. We can repoint deteriorated mortar joints, replace damaged flashing, repair or rebuild chimney crowns, and fix individual bricks without tearing down your entire chimney.
The key is catching problems early. Small cracks in mortar joints can be repointed easily, but if water gets in and causes structural damage, you might need more extensive work. Same with chimney crowns—small cracks can be repaired, but a completely deteriorated crown needs to be rebuilt.
We’ll always tell you honestly whether repair or replacement makes more sense. Sometimes a few strategic repairs can add years to your chimney’s life. Other times, especially with very old chimneys, rebuilding is actually more cost-effective than trying to patch multiple problems.
Yes, we respond to emergency chimney situations throughout Suffolk County. If you have water pouring into your house through a damaged chimney, structural damage that poses immediate safety risks, or other urgent problems, we’ll get someone out as quickly as possible.
Common emergency calls include storm damage to chimney caps or crowns, major water leaks during heavy rains, and situations where chimney damage is affecting your heating system’s ability to vent properly. We also handle emergency repairs when home inspections reveal safety issues that need immediate attention.
While we prioritize true emergencies, we’re also available 24/7 for urgent situations that can’t wait for regular business hours. The sooner you call about a chimney problem, the better chance we have of preventing it from becoming a much larger and more expensive issue.
We’re a family-owned Suffolk County business that actually lives and works in the communities we serve. That means we understand exactly how Long Island’s weather affects chimneys, and we use materials and methods that are proven to work in our specific climate conditions.
You’re not getting a sales pitch or scare tactics from us. We explain what’s wrong, what needs to be fixed, and what it’s going to cost upfront. Our owner is often on job sites personally overseeing work, which isn’t something you get from larger companies.
We also handle all types of exterior home improvement—roofing, siding, gutters, and chimneys—so we understand how your chimney fits into your home’s overall system. This broader expertise helps us spot and prevent problems that chimney-only contractors might miss.
