Your historic chimney will function safely and efficiently while maintaining its original character. We use lime mortar, salvaged bricks, and traditional techniques that work with your home’s original construction, not against it.
You’ll avoid the costly mistakes that come from modern repairs on historic masonry. Our restoration prevents future damage while preserving the architectural details that make your North Westport home special.
The result is a chimney that meets today’s safety standards without compromising the historical integrity that adds value to your property.
We’ve been restoring historic chimneys throughout Norfolk and Plymouth Counties for over 25 years. We understand the unique challenges of North Westport’s coastal environment and how salt air affects historic masonry.
Our CSIA-certified technicians are trained in traditional construction methods used in colonial and Victorian-era homes. We know the difference between lime mortar and Portland cement, and why that matters for your 18th or 19th-century chimney.
As a Massachusetts licensed contractor, we’re fully insured and familiar with local historical commission requirements. Your North Westport home’s heritage is safe in our hands.
We start with a thorough inspection to understand your chimney’s original construction and identify any previous repairs that may be causing problems. This includes documenting the existing mortar composition and brick types.
Next, we carefully dismantle damaged sections, salvaging original bricks whenever possible. We source period-appropriate replacement materials, including lime-based mortars that are compatible with historic masonry.
The restoration follows traditional bonding patterns and construction techniques. We rebuild using methods that allow your chimney to move and breathe naturally, preventing the moisture problems that rigid modern materials can cause.
