When your colonial-era chimney is properly restored, you’re not just fixing a problem—you’re preserving a piece of North Providence history. Your home maintains its authentic character while gaining modern safety and efficiency. No more worrying about water damage creeping through deteriorating mortar joints or wondering if that century-old brickwork can handle another New England winter.
You’ll sleep better knowing your family is safe from carbon monoxide risks and structural issues. Your heating bills drop when your chimney draws properly again. Most importantly, you’ve protected an investment that connects your family to Rhode Island’s rich colonial heritage.
Our restoration process addresses everything from crumbling lime mortar to damaged flue liners, using techniques that match the original construction methods. Your neighbors will notice the difference, and so will potential buyers if you ever decide to sell.
We understand what makes North Providence’s historic homes special. For over 25 years, we’ve specialized in the unique challenges of Rhode Island’s colonial architecture, from stone-ender chimneys to central chimney systems that date back centuries.
We know that your 18th-century home wasn’t built like modern construction. Those massive stone chimneys and hand-laid brick require craftsmen who understand traditional techniques and period-appropriate materials. That’s why our technicians are CSIA certified and trained in historic preservation methods.
North Providence’s colonial homes tell the story of early American settlement, and each restoration project we complete honors that legacy while ensuring your family’s safety and comfort for generations to come.
Every historic chimney restoration begins with a thorough assessment of your colonial-era construction. We examine the original stonework, mortar composition, and structural integrity to understand exactly what your 200+ year old chimney needs.
Next comes the careful removal of damaged materials—always preserving original elements wherever possible. Whether it’s repointing lime mortar joints or rebuilding sections of stone-ender walls, our work follows traditional methods that match your home’s original construction.
We use period-appropriate materials: lime-based mortars that breathe with the stone, hand-selected bricks that match the original color and texture, and traditional jointing techniques that ensure authenticity. Modern safety elements like proper flue liners are integrated seamlessly without compromising the historic character.
Finally, protective measures like appropriate waterproofing and crown repairs ensure your restored chimney will protect your home through many more New England winters while maintaining its authentic colonial appearance.
