Your new chimney eliminates every safety risk that kept you up at night. No more carbon monoxide concerns. No more water leaks damaging your attic. No more wondering if your family is safe when you light a fire.
You’ll have a structurally sound chimney built with materials designed specifically for Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles and salty ocean air. Every component—from the foundation to the crown—works together to provide reliable heating performance and complete peace of mind.
The difference is immediate. Better draft means more efficient heating. Proper waterproofing means no more stains on your walls or ceiling. And you’ll sleep better knowing your chimney meets all current safety codes and will protect your Hauppauge home for years to come.
We’ve been serving Hauppauge homeowners for over 10 years, and we understand exactly what chimneys in this area face. The salt air, the winter storms, the freeze-thaw cycles that destroy inferior work—we’ve seen it all in this charming Long Island community.
We’re fully licensed and insured, but more importantly, we’re neighbors who understand Hauppauge’s unique character. We know that families here value quality work done right the first time, and that’s exactly what we deliver on every masonry chimney replacement project.
When you choose us for your chimney replacement, you’re working with contractors who’ve built our reputation on fair pricing, exceptional craftsmanship, and keeping our promises. We treat every full chimney rebuild like it’s for our own family.
We start with a thorough inspection to assess your current chimney and explain exactly what needs to be done. You’ll get a detailed estimate that covers everything—no hidden costs or surprise charges later.
Next, we carefully remove your old chimney down to whatever level is necessary. Some chimney structural replacements only require going to the roofline, while others need complete chimney removal and replacement to the foundation. We protect your home throughout this process with proper coverings and safety measures.
Then we rebuild using materials specifically chosen for Long Island’s coastal climate. Every brick, every mortar joint, every flashing detail is installed to handle our unique weather challenges. We complete the work efficiently while maintaining the highest quality standards, and we clean up thoroughly when we’re done.

Your chimney replacement includes complete structural rebuilding from the foundation up. We install new chimney liner replacement systems rated for your heating system, properly sized and sealed to prevent dangerous gas leaks.
All masonry work uses mortar formulated for Long Island’s coastal conditions—resistant to salt air and freeze-thaw damage that destroys standard mortar in just a few years. We install new flashing systems that create watertight seals between your chimney and roof.
In Hauppauge, we see many chimneys that fail prematurely because they weren’t built for our specific climate challenges. Our chimney partial reconstruction and full rebuilds use weatherproof additives and proper construction techniques that account for coastal humidity, winter storms, and the seasonal temperature swings that can crack inferior work. You get a chimney that’s built to last in exactly the conditions it will face.
You typically need full replacement when the structural integrity is compromised—multiple courses of loose bricks, significant leaning, or extensive water damage throughout the chimney. If repair costs approach 60-70% of replacement cost, replacement usually makes more sense.
Signs that point to replacement include large cracks running through multiple brick courses, bricks that are loose or missing in several areas, or water damage that’s affected the internal structure. A leaning chimney almost always needs complete rebuilding for safety reasons.
We’ll give you an honest assessment during our inspection. If repairs can solve your problems safely and cost-effectively, we’ll tell you. But when replacement is the right choice, we explain exactly why and what you’ll get for your investment.
Long Island’s coastal location creates unique challenges that require specialized materials and techniques. The salt air accelerates mortar deterioration, and our freeze-thaw cycles can destroy standard construction in just a few years.
We use weatherproof mortar additives specifically designed for coastal conditions. Our flashing systems account for the additional moisture exposure from ocean storms. Even our brick selection considers how different materials respond to salt air and temperature fluctuations.
Many contractors from inland areas don’t understand these requirements. They use standard materials that fail quickly here, leaving homeowners with expensive problems within a few years. Our replacements are engineered specifically for Hauppauge’s climate challenges.
Most complete chimney replacements take 3-5 days, depending on the size of your chimney and how much needs to be removed. Weather can extend the timeline since we won’t work in conditions that compromise quality.
We remove the old chimney first, which typically takes a day. Foundation work and initial rebuilding take another day or two. The final masonry work, flashing installation, and cleanup usually require 1-2 additional days.
We protect your home throughout the process with tarps and coverings. If weather interrupts the work, we secure everything properly so your home stays protected. We’d rather take an extra day to do it right than rush and create problems later.
Our chimney replacement comes with comprehensive warranty coverage—up to 10 years on labor and up to 30 years on materials, depending on the manufacturer. This covers both workmanship issues and material defects.
The warranty includes all masonry work, flashing installation, and structural components. If any part of our work fails due to installation issues, we’ll fix it at no charge. Material warranties cover manufacturing defects in bricks, mortar, and other components.
We stand behind our work because we use quality materials and proper installation techniques. Most problems we see in the field come from corners being cut during installation or using inappropriate materials for our coastal climate. Our warranty gives you confidence that your investment is protected.
Complete chimney replacement typically ranges from $10,000-$15,000, depending on the size of your chimney, how much needs to be removed, and specific material choices. Factors like accessibility and any additional repairs needed can affect the final cost.
A standard two-story chimney replacement usually falls in the middle of this range. Larger chimneys or those requiring complete removal to the foundation cost more. Additional work like roof repairs or upgraded materials will increase the investment.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs so you know exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises, no hidden charges. We explain your options clearly so you can make the best decision for your situation and budget.
We can perform chimney replacement during winter, but weather conditions affect scheduling and may extend the timeline. We won’t compromise quality by working in freezing temperatures or wet conditions that prevent proper mortar curing.
Winter replacements require more careful planning and protection measures. We use temporary coverings and heating when necessary to maintain proper working conditions. Some materials have temperature requirements that we strictly follow.
The best time for chimney replacement is late spring through early fall when weather is most predictable. However, if you have a safety issue that can’t wait, we’ll work with you to complete the replacement safely regardless of season. Emergency situations get priority scheduling.
