We're the folks who understand every brick, every layer of mortar in your chimney.

When Should You Opt For Chimney Repointing 


When the space between bricks starts to show age or damage, that's a sign. It's a hint that your chimney needs some pampering. Repointing is like giving your chimney a fresh coat of protection. It's about replacing old, worn-out mortar with new, fresh ones. This stops water from sneaking in and causing more damage.

Repointing Services My Chimney Guy Proudly Offers

Simple Repointing

Tiny cracks? Little patches where mortar seems to have vanished? This is where simple repointing comes into play. It's a basic touch-up, like fixing a small scratch on a car. It is a process that is quick, efficient, and super effective. We ensure your chimney is as good as new after a simple repointing.

Full-scale Repointing

Some chimneys have seen many seasons. Rain, snow, sun – they've faced it all. These brave structures sometimes need more than just a touch-up. They need a full-scale revamp. We get into the details. Old mortar is gently removed. Bricks are cleaned with care. Fresh mortar fills the gaps. This process breathes new life into your chimney.

Matching the Mortar

Mortar isn't a one-size-fits-all thing. Different homes, different chimneys have different types. Especially if your home has some history, the mortar might be unique. But don't worry! My Chimney Guy is here with custom mortar matching. So, when we're done, your chimney looks as good as new, with no odd patches.

Switching Out Bricks

Repointing sometimes reveals another issue- bricks that have lost their strength. Bricks that have chips or are cracked. We replace these bricks. New for old. Strong for weak. Ensuring the chimney stands strong from all angles. Our experts will guide you through the switching out process and ascertain that the foundation remains strong. 

The Seal of Protection

Once the repointing is done, there's one more step- sealing the chimney. It's like adding a protective shield- against rain, moisture, and potential damage. You will never have to think of your chimney as a safety hazard or a sudden breakdown due to moisture. 

Chimney TLC Tips

Look and Learn- Keep an eye on your chimney. Regular checks help spot small issues before they grow big.


Keep It Clean- A clean chimney is a happy chimney. Clearing out soot and debris helps in more ways than one.
