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.
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.
