Dryer vent cleaning. *Multiple cleaning discounts at the same location. Apartments and Condo Associations, call for a quote. Lint can build up in the dryer vent duct, clogging it.

Crown Repair.
Prevents water penetration through the top of your chimney and saves major restoration expenses.

Flashing.
Counter flashing should be mortared into every chimney up to 1-1/2″ in depth. We also do roof-to-wall flashing.

Tuck-pointing. Replaces missing or loose mortar in brick chimneys. We grind out up to 1- 1/2″ in depth on damaged mortar and re-mortar with a waterproof agent in the mix.

Masonry Repairs.
Returns a deteriorating, unsafe chimney to original condition- “like new again”.

Earthquake Damage inspections and repairs- reinforce chimneys.

Flue lining or relining. Prevents deadly carbon monoxide from penetrating through your unlined or deteriorating chimney.

Gas furnace B-vent pipe replacement. Is your gas vent pipe all rusted out or rusted through? This can be a water leak problem or a carbon monoxide leak problem.

UL listed Terra Cotta clay tile liners.  When you don’t clean your chimney on a regular basis, you will get creosote build up. This can lead to a chimney fire and crack your Terra Cotta clay tile flue liners. Relining gives new life to unlined or damaged chimneys that would otherwise have to be completely rebuilt from the ground up. Repair costs may be covered by your home owner’s insurance.

Waterproofing.
Your chimney is constantly exposed to weather and often this appears as water in one form or another, usually rain or snow. Not only can water do serious damage in your house if it gets inside, it can literally break the chimney apart through the freeze-thaw cycle during the winter.
Taking care of your chimney involves more that inside maintenance. It also means applying a top-quality, reasonably priced, water repellent to the outside. We use and recommend Chimney Saver(R) water repellent to extend the life of your chimney and give you further peace of mind. Chimney Saver(R) doesn’t plug the surface with solid acrylics or silicone, so the chimney can breathe, allowing water vapors produced inside to escape to the outside. Chimney Saver(R) can prevent the ugly stains you often see on brick work, the result of mineral salts evaporating out of the bricks and mortar after water penetration. Chimney Saver(R) will stop water even at hairline cracks.
