Your chimney works the way it should. No more water dripping into your living room during storms. No more worrying about cracks getting worse or your family’s safety when you light a fire.
You get a chimney that handles Massachusetts weather without falling apart. The mortar stays solid through freeze-thaw cycles. Your heating system vents properly, keeping dangerous gases out of your home.

Academy Masonry has been fixing chimneys in Shirley and surrounding areas for years. We understand how New England weather beats up masonry work and what it takes to make repairs that actually last.
We’re not the guys who show up, slap some caulk on a crack, and call it fixed. We do the work right the first time using proper materials that can handle what Massachusetts throws at them.
You’re dealing with licensed masonry contractors who know local building codes and have the insurance coverage you need. We’ve repaired chimneys on homes just like yours throughout the area.
First, we inspect your chimney from top to bottom. We look at the crown, flashing, mortar joints, and interior structure to find every issue, not just the obvious ones you can see from the ground.
Then we explain what’s wrong and what needs to happen to fix it. No surprises, no upselling. Just a clear breakdown of the work and what it costs.
The actual repair depends on what your chimney needs. Maybe it’s repointing deteriorated mortar joints, rebuilding the crown, or replacing damaged flashing. We use materials designed for New England weather and follow proper techniques that ensure the repair lasts.
When we’re done, you get a chimney that’s structurally sound and ready to handle whatever weather comes next. The work is guaranteed because we stand behind what we do.
