Hear from Our Customers
Your historic chimney stops leaking, draws smoke properly, and looks exactly like it did when your house was first built. No more water damage creeping down your walls. No more smoke backing up into your living room during winter fires.
You get a chimney that’s both historically accurate and completely safe for your family. The restoration preserves your home’s original character while meeting today’s safety codes—protecting your investment and your peace of mind.
We understand the unique challenges of Esmond’s historic properties. Providence County has some of Rhode Island’s oldest homes, including Stone Enders from the 1600s with massive stone chimneys that require specialized knowledge.
We’ve worked on historic homes throughout the region for years. We know how coastal moisture affects old brickwork and why traditional lime mortar behaves differently than modern materials. When previous contractors used the wrong materials on your chimney, we know how to fix those problems properly.
First, we inspect your chimney thoroughly, looking for the specific types of damage common in historic structures—weathered lime mortar, inappropriate modern repairs, and settling issues unique to older construction.
Next, we carefully remove any problematic modern materials that are causing damage. We analyze your original mortar composition and match it exactly, using lime-based mortars that work with your historic brickwork instead of against it.
Then we restore your chimney using traditional techniques like tuckpointing and repointing, but with the precision and safety standards you expect today. Every repair respects your home’s historic character while ensuring it functions safely for decades to come.
