Your Local Chimney Repair Team for Passaic County, NJ

Paterson's January nights average around 19 degrees, and the higher ground to the north runs colder still. Wet masonry that freezes repeatedly loses mortar, and a cracked crown lets water into the flue and down into the house. In the older cities, many chimneys have been taking that punishment for close to a century. Our local crew rebuilds crowns, repoints open joints, resets loose brick and replaces failed flashing, and the free written estimate shows exactly which repairs your chimney needs and why.

Open 24 hours, Sunday to Friday. Free written estimates.

Chimney Repair for Passaic County Homes

About 33% of Paterson's housing units were built before 1940, according to Census estimates. Older brick chimneys in the Silk City commonly need their crowns rebuilt and the top courses repointed before water does deeper damage.

About 34% of Hawthorne's housing predates 1940. On chimneys that old, we repair with mortar matched to the original brick so new joints do not crack the faces around them.

Our crew repairs chimneys in Paterson, Hawthorne, Clifton, Passaic and Totowa.

When to Call Us

  • Crumbling or missing mortar between bricks
  • Brick faces flaking or popping off
  • A cracked or chipped crown
  • Water in the firebox after rain

Chimney Repair Questions in Passaic County

Do I need a permit to repair my chimney in Passaic County?
Check with your town's building department before larger masonry work. For a locally designated home, exterior chimney work can also need approval from the municipal historic preservation body.
What causes chimney bricks to flake?
Water gets into the brick, freezes and expands, and the face pops off. This is called spalling. It is usually worse when hard mortar was used in an earlier repair or when the crown lets water into the stack.
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.
