Trusted Chimney Repair Experts in NYC
A chimney is more than a feature on your roof. It helps with ventilation and protects your home from water, weather, and fire risks. Over time, NYC weather, age, and lack of upkeep can cause the mortar between chimney bricks to crack, wear away, or fall out.
We provide chimney pointing and brick repair across New York City, including Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, The Bronx, and Staten Island. Whether the damage is small or more serious, our skilled masons can restore your chimney to safe working condition at a fair price.
What Is Chimney Pointing and Why Is It Important?
Chimney pointing, also called chimney repointing, means removing damaged mortar between bricks and replacing it with new mortar that can handle the weather. This helps strengthen the chimney and stops water from getting in, which is a common cause of brick damage and chimney failure.
Signs your chimney needs pointing:
Loose or falling bricks
Leaks inside during rain
Moss or plants growing in joints
Cracked or missing mortar joints
Chimney leaning or feeling unstable
Damaged or crumbling chimney crown
Water stains on walls near the chimney
Left unchecked, these issues can cause:
Fire risks
Lower property value
Full chimney collapse
Fines from NYC DOB or HPD inspections
Costly water damage inside the building
If your chimney hasn’t been inspected or repaired in the last 10+ years, it’s time to take action.
