What's Included
Chimney Repair in Cornelius, here's what's covered.
Tuckpointing & repointing
We grind out failed mortar joints and repack them, matching the existing brick line.
Crown, cap & chase cover repair
A cracked crown is the #1 entry point for water. We rebuild it with a proper wash and overhang.
Flashing repair & waterproofing
Where the chimney meets the roof is a common leak point — we reseal flashing and apply breathable waterproofing so it actually sheds water.
Flue liner & crack repair
Cracked clay tiles or a damaged metal liner get patched or relined so combustion gases stay where they belong.
Our Process
How we do it.
Diagnose the real cause
We trace water stains and cracks back to the actual entry point, not just the visible damage.
Tear out what's failed
Loose brick, crumbling mortar, or a cracked crown gets fully removed — patching over a bad base doesn't last.
Rebuild to spec
New mortar, brick, or crown is set to match your chimney's existing line and properly cured.
Seal & waterproof
A breathable masonry sealant goes on last, so the repair actually holds through the next freeze-thaw cycle.

Frequently Asked
Questions we hear a lot.
How do I know if my chimney needs repair instead of just cleaning?
Water stains on the ceiling near the chimney, white staining on the brick, crumbling mortar, or a visibly cracked crown are all signs it's a repair issue, not just a soot issue.
How long does tuckpointing last?
Done correctly with matched mortar, tuckpointing typically holds up 15–25 years depending on climate and chimney exposure.
