Cherry Hills Village’s historic homes often have chimneys that look fine from the outside but hide serious flaws inside. Our full masonry inspection uses high-resolution cameras to check every brick joint, crown, and liner for cracks, spalling, or deterioration—especially critical in homes built before 1980 when mortar mixes were less durable. We document findings with photos and a detailed report, so you know exactly what needs attention before winter. Unlike basic sweep-and-go services, we focus on the long-term health of your chimney’s structure, not just clearing soot. This is the only inspection that catches hidden water damage from Cherry Hills Village’s freeze-thaw cycles, which can silently destroy liners over time.

Our custom stainless steel liners are sized to fit your flue exactly, restoring draft efficiency and preventing deadly carbon monoxide leaks. We weld the joints for a seamless fit and secure them with high-temperature silicone, ensuring they’ll outlast the next generation of homeowners. Unlike rigid liners, our flexible systems navigate the tight bends common in pre-1980 masonry work. We include a 10-year warranty and free pressure-testing to prove the seal. For Cherry Hills Village homes with original brickwork, this is the safest upgrade you can make.
Request this service →Cherry Hills Village’s freeze-thaw winters turn weak mortar into a sponge, letting water seep into bricks and freeze, cracking them from the inside out. Our tuckpointing process removes deteriorated mortar to a depth of 1–2 inches, then replaces it with a custom-blend mix matching your original brickwork. We use a hydraulic grout pump for deep penetration, ensuring no hollow spots remain. This isn’t cosmetic work—it’s structural reinforcement that can add decades to your chimney’s life. We also seal the crown with a waterproofing agent to block future moisture. Most repairs are completed in a single day, with no disruption to your landscaping.

Our repair process involves removing damaged concrete, reinforcing the edges with a steel mesh, and pouring a new crown using a fiber-reinforced mix that resists cracking. We then apply a breathable, siloxane-based waterproofing treatment that lets moisture escape while blocking water entry. This is critical for older chimneys, where even hairline cracks can funnel gallons of water into your masonry during a single storm. We include a 5-year warranty on crown repairs to give you peace of mind.

Our process uses rotary brushes and HEPA vacuums to remove all three stages of creosote, from loose soot to tarry glaze. We also inspect and upgrade components like damper seals, spark arrestors, and glass doors to meet current safety codes. For homes with original cast-iron dampers, we offer replacements that improve efficiency and reduce heat loss. This isn’t just about passing inspection—it’s about ensuring your fireplace is safe to use all winter long.

Our custom caps are fabricated from 304 stainless steel with a mesh screen fine enough to block birds but still allow proper draft. We secure them with stainless steel screws to prevent theft or wind dislodging. For older chimneys with wide flues, we install adjustable caps that accommodate seasonal airflow changes. This simple upgrade can prevent thousands in damage from water, animals, or flying embers—especially critical in neighborhoods with mature trees like those near Cherry Hills Village’s Country Club.
