Stop dealing with smoky rooms, water leaks, and safety concerns from your damaged chimney.
You want to enjoy your fireplace without smoke filling your living room or worrying about water damage spreading through your walls. When your chimney works properly, you get clean air, consistent heat, and peace of mind knowing your family is safe.
No more avoiding your fireplace because it doesn’t draft right. No more stressing about those water stains on your ceiling getting worse. A properly functioning chimney means you can actually use and enjoy the fireplace that drew you to your Brookline home in the first place.
Your evenings by the fire should be relaxing, not filled with concerns about safety or expensive repairs down the road.
We’ve been solving masonry problems in the Boston area for over 30 years. We’re a family-owned business that understands what Brookline homeowners face with their older homes and historic chimneys.
Most of Brookline’s homes were built before 1950, and we’ve worked on enough of them to recognize the patterns. The freeze-thaw cycles that crack mortar joints. The settling issues common in older foundations. The specific materials that actually hold up in Massachusetts weather.
When you call us, you’re working with contractors who’ve seen your exact problem before and know how to fix it properly the first time.
First, we inspect your chimney inside and out to identify all the issues, not just the obvious ones. We look for water entry points, structural problems, and safety concerns that other contractors miss.
Then we explain exactly what needs to be done and why, with upfront pricing so you know what to expect. No surprises, no upselling on work you don’t need.
We complete the repair using materials specifically chosen for New England weather. The mortar mix, sealants, and replacement materials all need to handle Massachusetts freeze-thaw cycles. Generic materials fail quickly here, so we use what actually works long-term.
Finally, we clean up completely and walk you through what we did so you understand how to maintain your chimney going forward.

Our chimney services cover everything from repointing mortar joints to rebuilding damaged sections. We handle water damage repairs, crown replacement, flashing installation, and structural reinforcement when needed.
For Brookline homes, we often address multiple issues at once. A leaking chimney might need new flashing, repointed joints, and crown repair. We handle all of it in one project instead of making you coordinate separate contractors.
Brookline’s historic homes present unique challenges. We understand both the original construction methods used in pre-1950 homes and how to bring them up to modern safety standards without compromising their historic character. Whether you’re dealing with a Victorian brownstone or a mid-century Colonial, we have the experience to do the work right.
