About Sunset Park
Sunset Park is part of Brooklyn Community District 7.
Most of Sunset Park south of 44th Street is in ZIP Code 11220, while Industry City and the area north of 44th Street are in 11232.
Sunset Park was developed mostly between 1892 and 1910 with two-story-above-basement row houses, and the majority of its homes are faced with brick.
The Landmarks Preservation Commission designated four residential historic districts in Sunset Park in June 2019.
Parts of Sunset Park are in landmark districts (Sunset Park South Historic District, Sunset Park 50th Street Historic District, Central Sunset Park Historic District, Sunset Park North 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 Sunset Park homes in ZIP codes 11220, 11232.
What This Means for Your Sunset Park 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?

Sunset Park is part of Kings County, where half of all homes were built before 1943 and 47.1% date from before 1940. About 66 nights a year drop to freezing here, so a crown crack or loose flashing in Sunset Park rarely stays small for long. With 47.1 inches of rain and melted snow a year, a chimney cap and a sound crown are what keep water out of the flue.
