Chimneys

We have dedicated crews who focus only on chimneys. For every chimney job, access is provided using properly constructed scaffolding that fully complies with provincial safety standards. In addition, all our masons and labourers have completed Working at Heights training and maintain their certification yearly.

Because safe chimney access requires many specialized components and pieces of equipment, the right equipment can be difficult and costly to source. Fortunately, we have everything required readily available in our job trailers, with additional equipment at our main compound. As a result, our crews can safely access and work on chimneys without compromising safety or efficiency.

Most importantly, the chimney cap is one of the most critical components of your chimney. A chimney is essentially a hole in your house that allows smoke, gases or air to vent outside. At the same time, it creates a potential entry point for water and weather. For this reason, proper installation and maintenance of the chimney cap is crucial to protecting your home.

To provide this protection, we always install a two-stage chimney cap. First, the base cap is made of Arriscraft stone and installed with the proper overhang and a drip edge. Then, we add a custom aluminum cap over the stone to create an impermeable surface that helps prevent water infiltration.

In addition, we seal around the flues and vents using heat-resistant caulking designed to withstand cracking despite Canada's extreme weather conditions. This combination of materials and installation techniques helps provide long-term protection against water entering your chimney and home.

Finally, all our chimney jobs are fully guaranteed.
