Chimney Flue Repair

The chimney flue is a critical component in ensuring safe and efficient ventilation of smoke and gases. Over time, flues can develop cracks or blockages that compromise their function and safety. At Akron Brick Repair, we specialize in identifying flue issues and providing solutions that restore functionality and safety. From relining to full replacements, our team possesses the expertise to ensure your flue is operating optimally.

Chimney Crown Repair

The chimney crown is the topmost part that shields the chimney from weather elements. A damaged crown can lead to significant problems, including water leaks and structural damage. Our skilled craftsmen at Akron Brick Repair can assess the condition of your chimney crown and perform necessary repairs, such as sealing or rebuilding, to prevent moisture ingress and extend your chimney’s life.

Chimney Flashing Repair

Flashing serves as a waterproof barrier between the chimney and roof. If flashing fails, leaks are imminent, leading to potential damage to your home or business. We meticulously repair and install flashing, using high-quality materials to ensure a long-lasting seal that protects your property from water damage.

Chimney Masonry Repair

Weather and time can take a toll on masonry work, causing bricks and mortar to deteriorate. At Akron Brick Repair, masonry is our specialty. Our team excels in restoring the structural integrity of your chimney through precise brick replacement and tuckpointing techniques, enhancing both safety and aesthetic appeal.

Chimney Liner Repair

The liner is integral to shielding the chimney walls from heat and corrosion. Cracks or defects can pose safety risks. We provide comprehensive chimney liner repair services, from patching to complete liner replacements, ensuring your chimney operates safely and efficiently.

Chimney Cap Repair

A chimney cap is essential for preventing debris, animals, and rain from entering. When a cap is damaged or missing, it can lead to a variety of problems. We offer repair and replacement services for chimney caps, ensuring your chimney system remains protected and functional.

Chimney Pointing and Repointing

Chimney Pointing

Pointing is crucial in binding bricks together, and deteriorated mortar can weaken the structure. We carefully remove old mortar and apply new, high-quality mortar to ensure durability and stability.

Chimney Repointing

Over time, mortar joints can become unstable and require repointing. Our experts at Akron Brick Repair have the skills to perform meticulous repointing, revitalizing your chimney while maintaining its historical charm.

Chimney Leak Repair

Leaks are common and can cause extensive damage if not addressed promptly. Our team conducts thorough inspections to identify the source of leaks, applying targeted repairs to stop water ingress and protect your property from further damage.

For those with older homes or buildings, preserving the historical integrity while ensuring functionality can be a challenge. Our restoration projects are designed to maintain architectural authenticity while upgrading the structural components necessary for safety and performance.
