No more water stains spreading across your ceiling. No more worrying about structural collapse or dangerous gas leaks.
Your new chimney handles Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles, coastal salt air, and nor’easters without the constant repairs. Built with materials designed for our climate, installed by contractors who’ve been solving these exact problems for over a decade.
You get a chimney that actually protects your home instead of threatening it. One that meets Suffolk County building codes and comes with clear warranties on both materials and labor.
We’ve been rebuilding chimneys in Suffolk County for over 10 years. We’re the contractors your neighbors call when their chimney is leaning, crumbling, or leaking into their living room.
We understand what Hauppauge’s weather does to chimneys because we see it every day. The salt air that eats through mortar joints, the freeze-thaw cycles that crack crowns, the nor’easters that test every weak point.
That’s why we don’t just replace chimneys—we build them to handle what’s coming next. Licensed, insured, and committed to doing the job right the first time.
First, we assess your chimney’s condition with a thorough structural inspection. We check the foundation, examine the existing structure, and identify exactly what needs to be rebuilt versus what can be salvaged.
Then we provide a clear, upfront estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline. No hidden costs, no pressure tactics—just honest pricing for quality work.
During construction, we carefully remove the damaged sections and rebuild with materials specifically chosen for Long Island’s coastal climate. We handle all permits, ensure code compliance, and clean up completely when we’re done. You get progress updates throughout the process so you always know where things stand.

Our chimney replacement includes complete structural rebuilding from the foundation up. We install new flue liners, rebuild the firebox, construct weather-resistant crowns, and install proper flashing systems.
In Hauppauge, we see specific patterns of chimney failure due to our coastal location. Salt air accelerates mortar deterioration, while freeze-thaw cycles create expansion cracks that let water infiltrate the structure. Our replacements address these local conditions with upgraded materials and construction techniques.
Every replacement includes proper waterproofing, code-compliant venting, and structural reinforcement designed to handle Suffolk County’s weather extremes. We also coordinate with roofing work when needed to ensure complete protection for your home.
Several signs indicate replacement is necessary rather than repair. If your chimney is leaning, has large structural cracks, or shows extensive spalling (crumbling bricks), replacement is typically the safer option.
Water damage is another key indicator. If you see water stains on interior walls, white staining on exterior bricks, or actual water in your fireplace, the damage may be too extensive for repairs alone.
In Suffolk County, chimneys over 30 years old often need replacement due to our harsh coastal conditions. The combination of salt air, freeze-thaw cycles, and storm damage eventually compromises the structural integrity beyond what repairs can address.
Complete chimney replacement in Suffolk County typically ranges from $8,000 to $15,000, depending on the height, complexity, and materials needed. This includes full structural rebuilding, new flue liner, crown construction, and proper flashing.
The cost reflects Long Island’s higher labor rates and the need for materials that can handle our coastal climate. However, replacement is often more cost-effective than repeated repairs when structural damage is extensive.
We provide detailed, upfront estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises, no hidden fees—just honest pricing for quality work that lasts.
Most complete chimney replacements take 3-5 days, depending on the size and complexity of your chimney. Weather can affect the timeline, especially during Long Island’s winter months.
We start with careful demolition of the damaged structure, then rebuild from the foundation up. This includes installing new flue liners, constructing the firebox, building the crown, and installing flashing systems.
We coordinate the work to minimize disruption to your home and always clean up completely each day. You’ll have regular updates on progress, and we’ll let you know if weather or unexpected conditions affect the schedule.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and inspections required for chimney replacement in Suffolk County. This includes structural permits, building code compliance verification, and final inspections.
Suffolk County has specific requirements for chimney construction, especially regarding flue sizing, structural support, and fire safety codes. We ensure your replacement meets all current regulations.
Our experience with local building departments means we know exactly what’s required and can navigate the permit process efficiently. This saves you time and ensures your replacement is completely code-compliant from start to finish.
We use materials specifically chosen to handle Long Island’s coastal climate. This includes high-grade masonry units resistant to salt air corrosion, stainless steel flue liners, and specialized mortars designed for freeze-thaw resistance.
For crowns, we use reinforced concrete with proper waterproofing to prevent the cracking that’s common in our climate. Flashing systems are typically copper or stainless steel for maximum longevity against coastal moisture.
All materials meet or exceed Suffolk County building codes and come with manufacturer warranties. We don’t cut corners on materials because we know what Long Island weather does to substandard construction.
We can handle emergency chimney replacement during winter months, though scheduling depends on weather conditions. Severe cold, snow, or ice storms may require us to wait for safer working conditions.
Winter replacements often take longer due to weather delays and the need for materials to cure properly in cold temperatures. We use cold-weather construction techniques when necessary to ensure quality results.
For non-emergency replacements, spring through fall offers the best conditions for efficient work and optimal material performance. However, if your chimney poses immediate safety risks, we’ll work with you to address the problem as quickly as weather permits.
