Chimney repair, rebuilding, crown, cap and flue repair
Chimneys rise above your roof and due to continual exposure to the elements, they receive a lot of abuse. During the winter months in Chicago, ambient air temperatures can dip below 0° F, while the temperature of your chimney shaft can exceed 200° F. These extreme temperature variations really stress chimney materials, which can lead to cracked or failing chimney caps, loose or spalled bricks, and defective or missing mortar joints. Left unchecked, these conditions can infiltrate so much of the structure that a much more expensive rebuild becomes necessary. Keep your chimney in good repair at all times to avoid more costly and serious issues down the road. Our masonry experts are pros in chimney repair, rebuilding, crown, cap and flue repair.
Get Dwell will not only diagnose your chimney issues, but explain in clear language how best to correct the condition(s) that led to the problem in the first place. Your work is guaranteed in writing.
We are available for free advice on any project and while the majority of proposals we give are also free, your particular project may require us to charge an initial estimating fee, which would then be deducted from the project’s cost. Request an estimate to get the process started and we’ll get back to you with the details.
