Time and changing weather conditions can cause a great deal of damage to chimneys. Chimney repair is inevitable as years of snow, ice, and rain erode mortar, allowing water to infiltrate the structure. Bricks flake or crumble, becoming a risk to the roof and building below.

At the first sign that chimney repair is in order, call Home Improvements Skilled Trades at (416) 577-6700 for expert repairs.

Quality Chimney Repair Assessments
It’s difficult to tell how dire a chimney’s condition may be without the proper experience and tools. When you have our assessment techs investigate, they’ll safely determine the scope of repairs required or if the chimney has deteriorated beyond repairs. We lower cameras into the chimney for photos, and together with measurements and the exterior analysis, we construct an estimate for repairs.

When to Call Chimney Repair Contractors

When you suspect that there could be something wrong with your chimney, we strongly recommend leaving it to Home Improvements Skilled Trades professionals rather than going out onto your rooftop yourself. Inspecting or working on your chimney can pose a serious fall risk, not to mention the danger of completing unstable work on your structure.

So, without going up on your rooftop, how do you know when it’s time to call a professional? A few tell-tale signs should tip you off that the time has come to contact us. These include:

Water leaking into the fireplace
Tiles falling into the fireplace
The wall above the fireplace looks wet
There is cracked or broken mortar on the chimney
There is stone, cement, or brick with obvious damage or missing pieces
The chimney is missing a chimney cap
White or dark stains on the side of the chimney
There is rust on the chimney components
The chimney is crooked

Once we provide our assessment and an accurate cost estimate for repairs, it’s up to you whether you would like to proceed with our chimney repairs services. If our estimate is accepted, we’re equipped to make the following same-day chimney repairs:

Cap repair

Crown repair
Flashing repair
Leak repair
Fire damage restoration
Brick, stone, or cement repairs

Effective Chimney Cap Repairs

Chimney caps keep everything out and are essential to their function. A missing or broken chimney cap means, at minimum, water is damaging the chimney and can be an urgent repair due to the risk of serious fires and carbon monoxide poisoning. We’ll make quick, precise work of repairing or replacing the cap.

Chimney Flue Repair

A damaged chimney flue can’t safely channel combustibles out or protect the building materials behind it from a fire’s intense heat. It’s essential to allow professional chimney repair contractors to remove the damaged flue and insert a carefully measured, insulated, stainless steel flue. Trust Home Improvements Skilled Trades to get this exactly right.

Chimney Leak Repair

Chimney leaks can occur in several places, and our experts will track down every source. Repairs will consist of waterproofing the chimney, applying a crown coat below the cap, and potentially resealing the flashing along the base of the chimney. We’ll stop leaks efficiently, for good.
