Chimney Repair in Bergen County, NJ
The short answer
Targeted chimney repair — repointing failed joints, replacing spalled brick, rebuilding a cracked crown and re-flashing where the stack meets the roof.
We inspect from the crown down before quoting, because the same ceiling stain can come from a failed crown, open joints or bad counterflashing — and each is a different repair.
This is one part of the chimney work we do across Bergen and Passaic County. Every job is quoted in writing after a hands-on inspection, performed by our own crew rather than subcontractors, and backed by our satisfaction guarantee. We are licensed under NJ HIC #13VH13359900 and fully insured.
What the work includes
- Repointing and tuckpointing
- Spalled brick replacement
- Crown repair and waterproof coating
- Counterflashing replacement at the roof line

Frequently asked questions
What is repointing?
Grinding out deteriorated mortar and replacing it with fresh mortar matched to the original mix. It restores the joint without disturbing the brick.
Should a chimney be waterproofed?
A breathable masonry sealer helps after repointing on exposed stacks. It should never be applied over failing joints — that traps water inside.
