Chimney Repair & Restoration in Abbotsford, BC

Chimneys take more punishment than any other part of your house. They're exposed to heat from below and BC's wet, freeze-thaw climate from above. Most homeowners don't look at their chimney closely until there's a problem — and by then, what started as failing mortar has often become spalling bricks, a cracked crown, or water getting into the house. We inspect, repair, and rebuild chimneys throughout the Fraser Valley.

Our Process

1. 1

   Chimney inspection — from the top down, we assess the crown, flashing, mortar joints, brick condition, and cap

2. 2

   Scope and quote — we show you what we find and explain exactly what it needs

3. 3

   Crown repair or rebuild — the crown is the most common failure point and we rebuild it with the right mix

4. 4

   Tuckpointing — deteriorated mortar joints are ground out and repacked with colour-matched mortar

5. 5

   Brick replacement — spalled or cracked bricks are swapped out to match

6. 6

   Flashing repair — if the flashing where chimney meets roof is failing, we reseal or replace it
