When your chimney is beyond repair, you need more than a quick fix. You need complete peace of mind that your family is protected from carbon monoxide leaks, chimney fires, and structural collapse.
A full chimney replacement eliminates these dangers permanently. No more worrying about dangerous fumes seeping into your home during cold Long Island winters. No more emergency calls when your old chimney finally gives out.
Your new chimney system will draft properly, heat efficiently, and meet all current safety codes. Most importantly, you’ll sleep better knowing your family is protected by a structure built to last decades, not just survive another season.
We’ve been serving Long Island homeowners for years, handling everything from complete home renovations to specialized chimney rebuilds. We understand the unique challenges that Baywood’s coastal climate brings to masonry structures.
Our team knows Suffolk County’s building codes inside and out. We handle all permits, inspections, and regulatory requirements so you don’t have to navigate the bureaucracy yourself.
What sets us apart is our commitment to protecting your property during the work. We use tarps to collect debris, take care not to damage landscaping, and leave your property cleaner than we found it. That’s the kind of attention to detail that keeps our customers recommending us to their neighbors.
First, we conduct a thorough inspection to assess the extent of damage and determine if a partial or complete rebuild is needed. We’ll show you exactly what we find and explain your options in plain English.
Once you approve the work, we handle all permits and schedule the job around your needs. Our crew arrives with all necessary equipment and safety materials to protect your property.
The replacement process involves carefully dismantling the damaged structure, installing new foundation support if needed, and rebuilding with quality materials designed for Long Island’s weather.

Your chimney replacement includes complete dismantling of the existing structure, new masonry construction from the foundation up, and installation of a modern stainless steel liner system. We handle flashing, crown construction, and cap installation to ensure your new chimney is completely weather-sealed.
In Baywood’s coastal environment, proper waterproofing is critical. We use materials specifically chosen to withstand salt air and moisture that can quickly deteriorate inferior products. Your new chimney will resist the freeze-thaw cycles that destroy many Long Island chimneys within just a few years.
All work comes with comprehensive warranties on both materials and labor. We also provide you with maintenance recommendations to help your new chimney system last for decades. This isn’t just about replacing what’s broken – it’s about giving you a superior system that performs better than what you had before.
Several signs indicate you need a full chimney replacement rather than repairs. If your chimney is leaning, has loose or falling bricks, shows significant mortar deterioration, or has a collapsing flue liner, replacement is usually the most cost-effective solution.
Chimneys over 50 years old with multiple structural issues often cost more to repair repeatedly than to replace once. We’ll provide an honest assessment of whether repairs can safely extend your chimney’s life or if replacement is the smarter investment.
The key is getting a professional evaluation before small problems become dangerous emergencies. We’ll show you exactly what we find and explain your options without pressure.
A partial chimney replacement typically involves rebuilding from the roofline up, leaving the existing foundation and lower structure intact. This works when the base is solid but the exposed portion has deteriorated from weather exposure.
Complete replacement means tearing down the entire structure and rebuilding from the foundation up. This is necessary when there are foundation issues, severe structural damage, or when the chimney is leaning significantly.
During our inspection, we’ll determine which approach makes sense for your situation. Sometimes what appears to need only partial replacement actually requires complete rebuilding once we examine the hidden structural elements.
Most complete chimney replacements in Baywood take 3-5 days, depending on the size and complexity of the job. Weather can affect the timeline, especially during Long Island’s winter months when masonry work requires special considerations.
We schedule the work to minimize disruption to your daily routine. The actual demolition usually takes one day, with rebuilding happening over the following days. We’ll provide you with a detailed timeline before starting work.
During the process, we ensure your home remains weatherproof. If unexpected issues arise, like discovering additional structural damage, we’ll discuss options with you before proceeding with any additional work.
Yes, we handle all permit applications, inspections, and code compliance requirements for your chimney replacement. Suffolk County has specific regulations for chimney construction, and we’re familiar with all local requirements.
We’ll obtain the necessary permits before starting work and schedule all required inspections during and after construction. This ensures your new chimney meets all safety codes and won’t cause issues with your homeowner’s insurance.
You’ll receive copies of all permits, inspection reports, and completion certificates for your records. This documentation is important for insurance purposes and future home sales.
We use materials specifically chosen for Long Island’s coastal climate. This includes high-grade masonry materials that resist salt air corrosion and freeze-thaw damage that’s common in our area.
For liners, we install stainless steel systems that provide superior draft performance and longevity compared to traditional clay tiles. These modern liners improve heating efficiency and reduce the risk of carbon monoxide problems.
All materials come with manufacturer warranties, and we stand behind our installation with comprehensive labor warranties. We don’t cut corners with inferior materials that might save money upfront but fail prematurely in Long Island’s challenging weather conditions.
Chimney replacement costs vary based on the size, height, and complexity of your specific situation. Factors include foundation work needed, accessibility, and whether additional structural repairs are required.
We provide detailed, written estimates that break down all costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges – you’ll know the total investment upfront.
While chimney replacement is a significant investment, it’s often more cost-effective than repeated repairs on a failing system. We’ll help you understand the long-term value and can discuss financing options if needed to fit your budget.
