When Charlotte’s autumn winds howl through Dilworth’s oak-lined streets, a compromised chimney can become a fire hazard or a source of water damage in your attic. Our team uses infrared cameras to spot hidden moisture behind brickwork and robotic chimney cameras to inspect flue tiles without climbing on your roof. We seal cracked crowns with high-temperature mortar, tuckpoint eroded joints with matching historic brick, and install heat-resistant chimney caps that block debris while allowing proper draft, critical for homes where original brickwork was never designed for modern heating systems.
We serve clients in neighborhoods like Elizabeth and Myers Park who’ve inherited chimneys that worked fine for their grandparents but now leak smoke or let water pool in the flue. Whether your home has a Rumford fireplace, a Rumford-style opening, or a classic brick hearth with a cast-iron insert, we tailor solutions to your home’s era and materials. From repointing 100-year-old brick to relining a 1950s cinder block flue, we blend old-world craftsmanship with modern safety standards, because Charlotte’s older homes deserve chimneys that last as long as the houses themselves.
