Chimney Repair, ManhattanYour Local Chimney Repair Experts in Manhattan, NY
Manhattan winters swing hard. January's daily mean temperature is 32.6 degrees, yet the borough usually drops to 10 degrees several times a winter and reaches 60 degrees on a few days of the coldest month. Every swing drives water deeper into brick, and an exposed rooftop stack takes the full force of the wind as well. Our local Manhattan crew repairs crowns, rebuilds loose upper courses, repoints joints and resets flashing. Access shapes every job here, so we plan roof routes, scaffolding and neighbor coordination before work starts.

Chimney Repair for Manhattan Homes
Brownstones and other row houses line many of the tree-lined eastern streets of Hamilton Heights, mixed in with large apartment buildings. A short townhouse chimney beside a taller building gets buffeted by wind coming off the larger wall, and its upper courses loosen faster.
Most of the detached and semi-detached houses left on Manhattan Island are in Inwood, set between apartment buildings. On a detached house the chimney is exposed on more sides than on a row house, so we often find more weather damage on the outer faces.
Chimney repair jobs take us to Hamilton Heights, Inwood, Harlem, Morningside Heights and Chelsea.
