Professional chimney company serving Roslindale homeowners with proven leak repairs, inspections, and complete masonry solutions that protect your home and family.
Water is your chimney’s biggest enemy, and by the time you see stains on your ceiling or smell that musty odor, damage is already happening behind your walls. When you catch chimney leaks early and fix them right, you avoid thousands in structural repairs, mold remediation, and the headache of dealing with insurance claims.
You get back to using your fireplace safely, knowing your home is protected from the freeze-thaw cycles that destroy masonry every winter in Massachusetts. Your chimney works the way it should, your heating bills stay manageable, and you have one less thing keeping you awake at night.
The difference between a quick fix and a lasting solution often comes down to experience and doing the work right the first time.
Academy Masonry & Construction has been the chimney specialist Roslindale homeowners trust for comprehensive masonry services throughout Cambridge and surrounding Boston communities. We’re a family-owned business with over 30 years of combined experience, and we understand what New England weather does to chimneys.
We’re fully licensed and insured, meeting all Massachusetts building regulations. When we show up, we’re not just fixing today’s problem – we’re preventing tomorrow’s emergency.
Roslindale’s older homes need contractors who understand both traditional masonry techniques and modern materials. That’s exactly what we bring to every job, along with transparent pricing and the kind of customer service that keeps neighbors recommending us to neighbors.
First, we come out and actually look at your chimney – inside and out, top to bottom. We’re not trying to sell you services you don’t need, but we won’t miss problems that could cost you later either.
You get a clear explanation of what we found, what needs to be done now, and what can wait. No surprises, no pressure, just the information you need to make the right decision for your home and budget.
When we do the work, we use high-quality materials and proven techniques that last. We clean up after ourselves, stick to our timeline, and make sure you understand what we did and why. You’re kept informed throughout the entire process, because it’s your home and you deserve to know what’s happening with it.

Our chimney services cover everything from routine inspections and chimney sweeps to major repairs and complete reconstructions. We handle chimney leak detection and repair, crown and cap replacement, flashing work, masonry restoration, and foundation waterproofing.
In Roslindale’s climate, chimneys take a beating from freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow loads, and the kind of weather that finds every weak spot in your masonry. We know which problems are urgent and which ones can be planned for, and we’ll tell you the difference.
We also offer financing options because we understand that chimney work isn’t usually something you budget for – it’s something that needs to happen when it needs to happen. Our goal is to keep your chimney working safely and efficiently for years to come, not to sell you the most expensive option.
