Summary:
A simple sweep clears ash and soot, but a detailed chimney inspection goes further. At Above and Beyond Chimney, our team checks the full structure, including the flue, smoke chamber, firebox, brickwork, and chimney crown. If there’s a crack, a leak, or a hidden block, we’ll find it before it turns into something serious. In Norfolk and Plymouth County, the freeze-thaw cycles can damage masonry materials and let moisture seep into your chimney. That’s why our inspections focus on trouble areas, such as missing mortar, spalling brick, and broken flue tiles. You’ll walk away with a clear understanding of what your chimney needs – and what it doesn’t.
A cracked chimney is not just a visual concern; it can lead to serious problems, such as water damage, smoke leaks, or even chimney fires. Making small repairs now can save you from rebuilding the whole thing later. That’s why we handle all types of chimney repair, from brick replacement to mortar repointing. In New England, temperature shifts and ice can break down even solid masonry. Our chimney repair work restores strength where your chimney needs it most. Whether you’re dealing with crumbling joints or leaning stacks, we’ll address it using materials that handle local conditions.

The chimney liner is what keeps intense heat and acidic exhaust from eating away at the brick and mortar inside your chimney. Your home could be at risk if your chimney liner is missing or cracked. That’s when a new chimney liner installation is vital. We use stainless steel liners for most homes across Norfolk and Plymouth County. These liners hold up under high heat and resist corrosion from wood, oil, or gas byproducts. Proper sizing is also key. If your chimney liner isn’t properly fitted, you could end up with poor draft or smoky rooms. Our skilled techs measure and install based on the specs of your fireplace or stove to keep everything running right.
Even well-constructed and properly cared for chimneys won’t last forever. If your chimney is showing signs of deterioration such as leaning, cracking, or falling apart, it may be best to consider a full chimney rebuilding. The Above and Beyond Chimney team can reconstruct the structure from the ground up or just rebuild the upper section if that’s all that’s needed. We match the brickwork to your home’s look and use mortar that handles cold, wet winters. A rebuilt chimney doesn’t just look better; it works better, draws stronger, and holds up to future weather long into the future.
If water stains are showing up near your chimney, there’s a good chance your flashing is the problem. The metal barrier where your chimney meets the roof takes a beating every year, and once it starts pulling away, leaks follow fast. That’s why we offer chimney flashing repair you can count on. We use strong materials like copper and aluminum to form a weather-tight barrier, sealed with commercial-grade caulk. Our team inspects every inch, removes damaged sections, and installs new flashing that handles New England’s worst storms. If you’re in Norfolk or Plymouth County, don’t wait for rain to find out there’s a problem.
Sweeping handles the surface, but real chimney protection goes deeper. Services like chimney inspection, chimney repair, chimney cap installation, liner upgrades, and flashing repair help prevent costly damage and keep your system working safely. In Norfolk and Plymouth County, harsh weather makes routine maintenance a must. Let Above and Beyond Chimney take a closer look before small issues turn into major repairs. Book your full chimney service today and stay one step ahead of the season.
