The Jobs We Take Near Boston

A chimney sweep near me search could lead to any service on this list. The whole chimney, one crew, every job documented.

Chimney Sweep

The byproduct of every wood fire in Boston is creosote, and left alone it hardens into a fuel source sitting right above your firebox. We isolate the hearth, scrub the flue with the right brush for your liner type, and inspect the cap and crown while we are on the roof. A Boston home that heats partly with a wood stove sends far more particulate up the flue, which changes how often the chimney really needs sweeping. We grade the creosote we remove and explain what it means, so the recommendation is yours to make with real information. Ring 508-321-7365 to have your Boston chimney swept and checked in one visit.

Chimney Inspection

Whether you are buying a Boston home, selling one, or just lighting the fireplace again, an inspection turns guesswork about the chimney into facts. The team works through the standard inspection levels, scopes the flue with a video camera when warranted, and delivers a clear report within a couple of days. Many Boston chimneys were relined or repaired by a previous owner, and an inspection confirms whether that work was actually done to code. We explain every finding in plain language, then leave the decision about repairs entirely with you. Get us at 508-321-7365 for an honest, written assessment of your Boston chimney.

Chimney Repair

A Boston chimney that draws fine can still be failing structurally, with deteriorating mortar joints and a crown that no longer sheds water. Our masons match the existing brick and mortar where they can, repair the failed components, and leave the chimney weather-tight and documented. The salt-laden air near the area waterfront corrodes flashing and accelerates masonry breakdown on exposed Boston chimneys. We match materials and methods to the age of your chimney, so the repair blends in instead of standing out. Dial 508-321-7365 and we will stop the leak before it costs you the structure.

Chimney Cap Installation

The cap is the cheapest insurance a Boston chimney owns: it keeps rain off the smoke shelf, animals out of the flue, and embers off the shingles. Our installation includes confirming the crown is sound enough to anchor the cap, so the new cover actually stays put. Many older Boston chimneys never had a cap at all, so the flue has been taking rain for years before we install the first one. We size the cap to your flue rather than forcing a generic cover on, so it actually fits and actually lasts. Dial 508-321-7365 to install a cap that actually fits your area chimney.

Chimney Crown Repair

Many Boston chimney crowns were poured too thin or without an overhang, so they crack early and let water attack the masonry beneath. Our masons patch and seal a serviceable crown with a flexible waterproof coating, or rebuild it properly with an overhang and drip edge when it is too far gone. A Boston chimney exposed to wind-driven rain takes water on the crown from the side as well as above, accelerating the cracking we repair. We tell you honestly whether your crown can be sealed or truly needs rebuilding, so you pay for the right fix and nothing more. Dial 508-321-7365 and we will stop water from entering through a cracked crown.

Chimney Liner Installation

When you switch a Boston fireplace to a gas insert or a wood stove, the flue usually needs a new, correctly-sized liner to vent the new appliance safely. Our crew sizes a stainless liner to your flue and appliance, insulates it per code, and installs it so the chimney vents safely and draws properly. In area, many relines follow a failed real-estate inspection, where the camera found gaps no one knew were there. The quote covers a correctly sized, code-compliant liner, with no hidden add-ons once the work starts. Call 508-321-7365 to bring an old Boston flue up to a safe, modern standard.

You get documentation and an honest assessment at the end — what we found, what we did, and an honest interval for the next visit. That is simply how we run every job.

No-Spin Phone Triage

When you call, we figure out what your chimney actually needs rather than booking the most expensive service by default. That habit is half the reason the referrals keep coming.
