Services
Chimney Sweeping
Our CSIA-certified technicians perform thorough chimney sweeping using advanced tools and traditional methods. Annual maintenance prevents fire hazards, improves efficiency, and extends system lifespan. We address creosote buildup, debris removal, and odor elimination while following strict safety protocols. Clients receive post-service recommendations for ongoing chimney care.
Fireplace Installation
Custom fireplace installations feature brick, stone, or cast materials tailored to client preferences. We handle Rumford designs, standard models, and factory-built units with proper venting systems. Projects include surround aesthetics, hearth construction, and integration with existing home architecture for functional beauty.
Masonry Restoration
We restore deteriorated masonry through repointing, brick replacement, and structural stabilization. Services cover chimneys, walls, and outdoor living spaces using matching materials to preserve original aesthetics. Waterproofing treatments protect against weather damage while maintaining breathability of masonry surfaces.
Chimney Rebuilding
Complete chimney reconstruction addresses severe damage from weather or structural failure. Our team rebuilds using code-compliant materials and techniques, including stainless steel liners and custom chase tops. Projects include gas, wood, and oil-burning system compatibility with lifetime durability focus.
Outdoor Kitchens
Custom outdoor kitchen construction combines functionality with aesthetic appeal using durable masonry materials. We design complete entertainment spaces with cooking stations, storage, and weather-resistant finishes. Projects integrate with existing patios while meeting local building codes for safe usage.

Our new home has a vented gas fireplace insert that we could not figure out how to light. Thinking it was a defect with the line, we left a message for Steven. He called me and walked me through my whole house, asking questions and guiding me to figure out the issue. He truly went above and beyond, reaching out on a Saturday to help me find the problem without the cost of a guy coming out to service it. Highly, highly recommend!
