Chimney Bricks Falling Apart
Brick faces flaking, peeling or popping off
From repointing and crown sealing to leak tracing and structural masonry — honest repairs that match your chimney, not a price sheet.
New England winters are hard on masonry, and Braintree’s chimneys take the full brunt of the freeze-thaw cycle. Water gets into a hairline crack, freezes, expands, and turns a small problem into a structural one. We diagnose the actual cause of the damage — not just the symptom — and repair it with materials matched to the age and exposure of your chimney.
Most repairs we handle in Braintree fall into a few categories: repointing failed mortar joints, sealing or rebuilding a cracked crown, replacing rusted-out caps, correcting flashing leaks, and rebuilding spalled or bowed brickwork. We match mortar type to the era of the home — modern Type N/S on post-war brick, softer lime-based mortar on pre-war masonry — so the repair lasts and doesn’t damage the surrounding brick.
Every repair starts with a free estimate and photos of the problem area. You’ll get a clear explanation of what’s failing, why, and the most cost-effective way to fix it — with a written, itemized estimate before any work begins.
