About Bay Ridge

Bay Ridge is covered mostly by ZIP Code 11209, while the small portion north of 65th Street is in ZIP Code 11220.
The announcement of the Fourth Avenue subway line, which opened in 1916, led to the immediate development of row houses in Bay Ridge.

Parts of Bay Ridge are in landmark districts (Bay Ridge Parkway-Doctors' Row Historic District). Exterior masonry work on a landmarked building can need approval from the NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission, so we check your address before the work is planned.
We serve Bay Ridge homes in ZIP codes 11209, 11220.
What This Means for Your Bay Ridge Chimney
Shared walls and party chimneys
Attached houses often share a chimney stack with the neighbor, with one flue per home. Smoke or water from next door, a blocked shared cap or a leaning stack affects both houses, so we check the whole stack and every flue before we plan a repair. Read: How Does Repair Work on a Shared Chimney?
Postwar homes and their chimneys
Homes built in the postwar decades often have a brick chimney with a mortar crown that was never meant to last. After decades of winters, crowns crack, caps go missing and flashing lets water in. These are quick, affordable fixes when caught early. Read: What Should You Do About a Cracked Chimney Crown?
