Hear From Our Clients
Your new chimney means no more water damage seeping into your basement during heavy rains. No more worrying about carbon monoxide leaks or structural collapse. No more throwing money at temporary fixes that don’t last.
You get a completely rebuilt chimney system designed for East Quogue’s coastal weather. Every component—from the foundation up through the crown—is built to handle decades of salt air, winter storms, and daily use without failing.
The peace of mind alone is worth it. But you also get better heating efficiency, increased home value, and the confidence that comes from knowing your family is truly safe.
We’ve been serving East Quogue and Suffolk County homeowners with complete chimney replacement services that actually last. We understand how this area’s unique coastal conditions affect masonry and structural integrity.
Our team knows the difference between a quick patch job and a proper rebuild. We’ve seen too many homeowners get burned by contractors who promise cheap fixes for serious structural problems.
When we rebuild your chimney, we’re building it to withstand everything East Quogue weather can throw at it—from nor’easters to summer humidity. Every project uses materials specifically chosen for Long Island’s coastal environment.
We start with a thorough structural assessment to determine exactly what needs to be rebuilt. Sometimes it’s just the upper portion above the roofline. Other times, foundation issues require a complete tear-down and rebuild.
During demolition, we carefully remove the old chimney while protecting your roof and property. We handle all debris removal and site cleanup as part of the job.
The rebuild phase involves installing a new foundation if needed, building the chimney structure with proper materials for coastal conditions, installing a new liner system, and finishing with a crown and cap designed to shed water effectively. Every step is inspected to ensure it meets Suffolk County building codes and our own quality standards.

Your chimney replacement includes complete structural rebuilding with new masonry work designed for East Quogue’s coastal environment. We install new stainless steel liner systems that resist corrosion from salt air and provide superior draft performance.
The new crown and cap system is engineered to shed water effectively during Long Island’s heavy rains and winter storms. All flashing work is done with marine-grade materials that won’t fail after a few seasons like standard flashing often does in coastal areas.
We handle all permits, inspections, and coordination with local building departments. The entire project is backed by comprehensive warranties on both materials and workmanship, giving you confidence in your investment for years to come.
Several signs indicate your chimney is beyond repair and needs full replacement. If you notice significant leaning, large cracks running through multiple courses of brick, or extensive water damage in your basement during storms, these are structural issues that require rebuilding.
Repeated repair failures are another clear indicator. If you’ve had the same problems fixed multiple times only to have them return, the underlying structure is compromised. Other warning signs include loose bricks falling from the chimney, white staining (efflorescence) covering large areas of the masonry, or visible gaps between the chimney and your house.
An inspection can determine whether partial repairs might work or if complete replacement is the safer, more cost-effective option long-term.
Chimney repair addresses specific problems like repointing mortar joints, fixing small cracks, or replacing damaged flashing. These solutions work when the overall structure is sound but has localized issues.
Replacement involves tearing down and rebuilding part or all of the chimney structure. This becomes necessary when the foundation is compromised, the chimney is leaning significantly, or when repeated repairs haven’t solved ongoing problems like persistent leaks or structural movement.
In East Quogue’s coastal environment, older chimneys often reach a point where the masonry has been so compromised by salt air and weather that replacement becomes more economical than continued repairs. A new chimney built with modern materials and techniques will last decades longer than trying to patch an old, deteriorated structure.
Complete chimney replacement typically takes 3-7 days depending on the scope of work and weather conditions. Simple above-roofline replacements can often be completed in 2-3 days, while full rebuilds requiring foundation work may take up to a week.
Weather plays a significant role in timing, especially during Long Island’s winter months. We don’t work on masonry during freezing temperatures or heavy rain, as this can compromise the integrity of the mortar and overall structure.
We provide detailed project timelines upfront and keep you informed of any weather-related delays. Most of the work happens outside, so there’s minimal disruption to your daily routine. We coordinate carefully to ensure your heating system remains functional throughout the project whenever possible.
Insurance coverage depends on the cause of the chimney damage and your specific policy terms. Sudden damage from storms, lightning strikes, or other covered events is typically covered, while gradual deterioration from age and normal wear usually isn’t.
If water damage from a failing chimney has affected other parts of your home, those repairs are often covered even if the chimney replacement itself isn’t. It’s worth filing a claim and having an adjuster assess the situation, especially if the damage occurred during a specific weather event.
We work with insurance companies regularly and can provide detailed documentation and photos to support your claim. We also offer financing options for situations where insurance doesn’t cover the full replacement cost, making it easier to get the work done without delay.
We use materials specifically chosen to withstand East Quogue’s salt air and coastal weather conditions. This includes marine-grade stainless steel for liner systems and flashing components that resist corrosion from salt exposure.
For masonry work, we select bricks and mortar mixes that perform well in freeze-thaw cycles and high-moisture environments. The mortar joints are sealed with products that remain flexible and waterproof despite temperature fluctuations and coastal humidity.
All caps and crowns are built with proper slopes and overhangs to shed water effectively during Long Island’s heavy rains. We avoid materials that are known to fail quickly in coastal environments, even if they cost less initially. The goal is building a chimney system that will perform reliably for decades in these challenging conditions.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and coordinate required inspections with Suffolk County building departments. Chimney replacement typically requires building permits, and the work must be inspected at various stages to ensure code compliance.
We’re familiar with local building codes and inspection requirements, which can vary between different municipalities in Suffolk County. Our team schedules all necessary inspections and ensures the work meets or exceeds current safety standards.
This takes the administrative burden off you and ensures everything is done properly from a legal and safety standpoint. All permits and inspection fees are included in our project pricing, so there are no surprise costs during the process.
