Your new chimney deserves more than basic construction—it needs expertise that understands Fox Point’s coastal weather and Rhode Island’s strict building codes.
Hear from Our Customers
You get a chimney that stands up to everything Providence County weather throws at it. No more worrying about freeze-thaw damage cracking your mortar joints or coastal moisture seeping into your brickwork.
Your investment pays off in decades of reliable service. We’re talking about proper footings that won’t settle, flue systems that draft correctly, and materials chosen specifically for New England’s harsh conditions.
When building inspectors review our work, they see code compliance done right the first time. That means no delays, no costly corrections, and no headaches during your project approval process.
Above and Beyond Chimney brings over 25 years of chimney construction experience to Fox Point and Providence County. We’re registered with Rhode Island’s Contractors’ Registration and Licensing Board and carry the required $500,000 liability insurance.
Our technicians understand exactly what works in this area. Coastal moisture affects masonry differently than inland conditions, and we’ve seen how improper construction fails after just a few New England winters.
We’ve built chimneys throughout Providence County that are still performing flawlessly decades later. That’s what happens when you combine proper materials, correct techniques, and local expertise.
First, we handle all permits and ensure your project meets Rhode Island Building Code requirements. This includes proper foundation specifications, clearance measurements, and material approvals.
Next comes excavation and foundation work. We pour concrete footings that extend at least 6 inches beyond the chimney on all sides and go below frost depth—critical for preventing settlement issues in Rhode Island’s freeze-thaw cycles.
Then we build your chimney using materials designed for coastal New England conditions. This means freeze-thaw resistant mortar, properly sized flue liners, and weatherproof caps that keep moisture out for decades.
Throughout construction, we maintain required clearances from combustible materials and install proper flashing systems. Every step gets inspected to ensure your chimney meets safety standards and building codes.

Your chimney construction includes engineered foundations, proper reinforcement, and materials specifically chosen for Providence County’s climate. We use concrete mixes with additives that resist cracking from freeze-thaw cycles.
The flue system gets sized correctly for your heating appliance and built with appropriate materials—whether that’s clay tile, stainless steel, or cast-in-place liners. We install proper dampers, cleanout access, and spark arrestors where required.
Your chimney cap and crown get built with materials that handle coastal weather. Copper or stainless steel caps resist corrosion, while properly sloped concrete crowns shed water away from the flue opening.
We also handle all the details Fox Point homeowners need: proper flashing integration with your roof, adequate clearances from nearby structures, and compliance with local setback requirements. Everything gets documented for your building permit approval and future reference.
