Chimney Repair
Chimney Repair St. Louis and Inspections, a Massey Tuckpointing & Masonry division, is your trusted Saint Louis chimney sweep. We are also master chimney repair and masonry experts. While performing our chimney inspection and sweeping, we’ll photograph and show you any areas of concern we spot.
Chimney Repair issues we frequently discover include:
- Missing or defective chimney caps. A properly designed and functional chimney cap keeps debris and obstructions from blocking your chimney’s ventilation and draft.
- Defective chimney flue liners. Cracks, separation, or tears in the chimney liner must be addressed. A defective chimney liner can cause a chimney fire or carbon monoxide poisoning.
- Missing bricks, tuckpointing, or other cracks on the chimney’s exterior above the roofline.
- A chimney lacks tuckpointing (mortar) and bricks throughout the structure. In severe cases, complete demolition and rebuilding of the chimney may be required.
- Fireplace or mantel issues. These are generally the easiest to spot and fix as they’re within reach on the interior.
- Missing or defective damper. This can either be fixed, or the damper must be replaced.
We are also experienced and well-known for our tuckpointing and masonry repair and build services.
