You’ve seen chimneys crumble after just a few winters. You’ve watched neighbors deal with water damage, structural problems, and costly repairs that could have been avoided. That’s what happens when corners get cut during construction.
A properly built chimney does more than just look good. It protects your family from carbon monoxide poisoning, prevents house fires, and keeps water from destroying your home’s structure. When we build your chimney, we’re building your peace of mind.
The difference between a chimney that lasts five years and one that lasts fifty years comes down to one thing: the builder chimney process. We use fire-rated materials, proper ventilation design, and construction techniques that account for Bristol County’s harsh freeze-thaw cycles.
Above and Beyond Chimney has been serving Smith Mills and Bristol County for over 25 years. We’ve seen what happens when chimneys aren’t built properly, and we’ve fixed more botched jobs than we care to count.
Our licensed chimney contractor team knows exactly how coastal moisture affects masonry in this area. We understand why so many chimneys in Smith Mills fail prematurely, and we build ours differently. Every project uses materials specifically chosen for New England’s climate.
When you work with us, you’re working with CSIA-certified technicians who’ve spent decades perfecting their craft. We don’t just build chimneys – we build relationships with homeowners who want things done right.
First, we assess your property and discuss your heating needs. Every chimney builder should start with understanding how you’ll use your fireplace or heating system. We measure, calculate proper height requirements, and design a system that works with your home’s architecture.
Next comes foundation work. We dig deep and build a concrete foundation that can support the full weight of your chimney. This isn’t where you want to save money – a weak foundation means a failing chimney within a few years.
Then we build up, brick by brick, using fire-rated materials and proper mortar mix. We install flue liners, build proper smoke chambers, and ensure every joint is sealed correctly. Our final step includes flashing installation and waterproofing to keep Bristol County’s weather from destroying our work.

Every chimney we build comes with proper fire-rated brick, stainless steel flue liners, and mortar designed for New England’s climate. We don’t use generic materials – everything is chosen specifically for durability in coastal Massachusetts conditions.
Your project includes complete waterproofing, proper flashing installation, and a chimney cap designed to keep water and animals out. We also provide detailed documentation of our work, including photos and material specifications for your records.
In Smith Mills, we see a lot of moisture-related damage because many builders don’t understand how coastal humidity affects masonry. Our chimney construction process includes vapor barriers and drainage systems that other contractors skip. That’s why our chimneys last decades while others start failing within years.
