Chimney Repair, Cape May CountyYour Local Chimney Repair Team in Cape May County, NJ
Chimney repair in Cape May County usually means one of two very different houses. On one side are tall Victorian chimneys with decorative tops, soft brick and lime mortar. On the other are mainland homes and shore cottages from the last century, where crowns, caps and flashing take a beating from wind-driven rain. Our own crew handles both, from rebuilding a loose chimney top to resetting flashing and replacing spalled brick. We give a free written estimate first, so you know the scope before a single brick comes out.

Chimney Repair for Cape May County Homes
After an 1878 fire destroyed 30 blocks of the town center, Cape May rebuilt almost entirely in Victorian styles, and it now has the second-largest collection of Victorian houses in the country after San Francisco. Repairs on those chimneys call for mortar soft enough to match the old brick, because a hard modern mix can crack it.
In Cape May Court House, the Cresse-Holmes House Historic District is on the National Register, as are the Thomas Leaming House and the New Asbury Methodist Episcopal Meeting House. On older houses like these, we repair what is failing and match what is original, rather than covering sound brick with a fresh layer of patch.
Repair work takes our crew to Cape May, Wildwood, Ocean City, Middle Township, Lower Township and the Upper Township shore.
