Chimney Repair Services We Provide

Brick Repointing and Tuckpointing

Over time, mortar joints between bricks can deteriorate, crack, or fall out, leaving gaps that let water into your chimney. Repointing, also called tuckpointing, removes damaged mortar and replaces it with new, properly matched material to restore structural strength and weather resistance.

This is one of the most effective ways to extend the life of your chimney while improving its appearance and preventing leaks. In New Rochelle, repointing costs often range from about 5–10 dollars per square foot depending on height, access, and damage.

Chimney Crown Repair and Replacement

The concrete or masonry slab at the very top of your chimney is called the crown. When it cracks or deteriorates, water can seep down into the bricks, liner, and even into your home. Mr. Chimney repairs minor crown cracks with high-quality sealants and rebuilds or replaces crowns that are beyond repair.

Typical chimney crown repairs in the region can range from a few hundred dollars for patching to over a thousand dollars for a full rebuild, depending on size and condition. We will evaluate your crown and provide a clear written repair plan before any work begins.

Chimney Leak Repair and Flashing

Water stains on ceilings near the chimney, musty odors, or rust on your damper or firebox metal can indicate a chimney leak. Leaks often originate at the flashing where the chimney meets the roof, the crown, or cracked masonry.

Our leak repair services may include re-sealing or replacing flashing, installing or upgrading a chimney cap, repairing or rebuilding damaged brickwork, and waterproofing the exterior masonry. Addressing leaks early helps avoid interior damage, mold, and costly structural repairs later. Call 1-800-834-3155 for a New Rochelle chimney leak inspection.

Chimney Liner Repair and Relining

A damaged or unlined flue can allow heat, smoke, and carbon monoxide to escape into walls or living spaces, creating serious safety hazards. Mr. Chimney inspects clay tile liners for cracks, gaps, and spalling, and recommends liner repair or full relining when needed.

Relining options may include stainless steel liners or other code-approved systems sized for your heating appliance or fireplace. While liner replacement is a larger investment, it dramatically improves safety and performance.

Full Chimney Rebuilds and Restoration

If your chimney is leaning, severely cracked, or missing bricks, it may need partial or full rebuilding above the roofline. Mr. Chimney can carefully dismantle unstable sections and rebuild them with compatible materials that match the style of your New Rochelle home.

Full restoration may include rebuilding brickwork, installing a new crown and cap, upgrading the liner, and addressing draft or smoke issues. We balance historic character with modern safety standards so your restored chimney performs as well as it looks.

FAQs About Chimney Repair in New Rochelle

How do I know if my chimney needs repair?

Common warning signs include visible cracks, missing mortar, leaning brickwork, water stains on ceilings near the chimney, rusted fireplace components, or smoke backing into the room. If you notice any of these issues, schedule an inspection promptly.

How often should chimneys be inspected or serviced?

Most homes that use fireplaces or fuel-burning appliances should have an annual chimney inspection and cleaning as needed, especially before the heating season. Regular inspections help catch small problems before they turn into costly repairs.

Can I wait to repair minor cracks or loose mortar?

Postponing masonry repairs usually allows water intrusion and freeze-thaw damage to accelerate, which can turn a small repointing job into a more expensive rebuild. Timely repairs are usually the most economical option.
