Chimney Repair, New Castle CountyYour Local Chimney Repair Pros in New Castle County, DE
Winters in New Castle County hover near freezing, and that is what wears chimneys out. Water that gets into brick and mortar freezes, thaws and freezes again, loosening the top courses, cracking the crown and pushing the flashing away from the roof. Rowhouse chimneys add shared masonry to the mix. We repair loose and spalled brick, rebuild stacks above the roofline, reset flashing and build new crowns, using materials that match the age of the house. Our own crew does the work, after a free written estimate.

Chimney Repair for New Castle County Homes
Happy Valley, on the slope down to Brandywine Park, is a small group of late 19th century row houses. Rowhouse chimneys there share masonry with the house next door, and loose top courses are one of the repairs we make most often on them.
Trinity Vicinity, near Trinity Church and I-95, mixes row homes and detached houses, many first built in the late 1800s. Brick that old needs repairs matched in size, color and mortar, and Trinity Vicinity is also one of Wilmington's historic districts.
We repair chimneys in Wilmington, Newark, New Castle, Claymont and Hockessin.
