Chimney Repair in Bergen County, NJ From Your Local Crew

Bergen County's climate is milder than New Jersey counties farther inland, but it is still cold enough to hurt masonry. Brick takes on rain, the next hard frost turns it to ice, and joints open a little wider each time; one split in the crown and the stack fills from the top. Most of the repairs we do in Bergen are on the top of the chimney: new crowns, rebuilt upper courses and fresh flashing. You see every item on a free written estimate before our crew sets up.

Chimney Repair for Bergen County Homes

Garfield was first developed in 1873 as East Passaic, and about 30% of its housing units were built before 1940. Older brick chimneys there often need repointing and crown work after decades of freeze and thaw.

About 24% of Englewood's housing units date from before 1940, and its median build year is 1959. That mix means we see both older brick stacks that need careful repointing and postwar chimneys with failing crowns.

Our crew repairs chimneys in Garfield, Englewood, Hackensack, Bergenfield and Teaneck.

Chimney Repair Questions in Bergen County

Do I need a permit for chimney repair in Bergen County?
Check with your town's building department about permits before major masonry work. If your property is locally designated, exterior chimney work can also need approval from your municipality's historic preservation body.
How do I know my chimney needs repair?
Look for cracked or missing crown pieces, brick faces flaking off, open mortar joints, rust stains, or water inside near the chimney. Any of these is worth a look before the next winter makes it worse.
Can a small crack wait?
It can wait a little, but freeze and thaw cycles widen cracks every winter. Fixing a crown or a few joints early costs far less than rebuilding.
