About this Project
Our techs have received training masonry work and are capable of performing masonry repairs such as custom poured crowns, veneer stone, re-pointing, firebox rebuilds, smoke chamber parging and more!
CUSTOM POURED CROWNS
Here is a freshly poured concrete crown. We reinforce all of our crowns with glass fibers and build in a drip edge and slope to get water off of the chimney. Our concrete is also mixed with a powdered water repellent to help prevent water absorption into the crown.
SMOKE CHAMBER PARGING
The area directly above the firebox in a masonry fireplace is often incorrectly built, and incapable of containing creosote, gasses and heat properly. Here is a side-by-side photo of the before and after. You can see how smoothly the smoke will exit the area in addition to be heat resistant now.
CHIMNEY REPAIRS

VENEER STONE
This stone was put on at the same time as the new fireplace and mantel.
RE-POINTING MORTAR JOINTS
Our techs will gladly inspect your firewood during your chimney service, inspection or repair and let you know if it is stored properly, dry enough to burn and cut to the ideal size.
VENT-FREE FIREPLACE
Before we started, all that was here was a wall!
