Inspection-first chimney work for Oakland County homes
Oakland County has a wide range of housing, and chimneys show it. Many homes in Royal Oak, Birmingham, and Pontiac were built generations ago, with masonry chimneys that have been through a lot of Michigan winters. Communities like Troy, Rochester Hills, Novi, Farmington Hills, and Waterford have plenty of later-built homes where the chimney may look fine from the street but have crown or flashing problems up close.
On older homes, appearance matters as much as function. Our repairs are matched to your home, with mortar color and replacement brick chosen to blend in, so a repaired chimney doesn't stand out against original masonry.
Every job starts with a 60-point inspection and photos of every finding. You'll see exactly what's going on and what it costs before we start, and if a small repair solves it, that's what we'll recommend.
Beyond chimneys, we handle masonry for Oakland County homes too: porches and steps, retaining and garden walls, brick paver patios, walkways, and driveways. We're full masonry experts, from minor repairs to major renovations and full installations and rebuilds.

Local know-how
What we pay close attention to on Oakland County chimneys
Matching older masonry
Older brick and mortar can be hard to match, so we take care to blend repairs with the original.
Top-of-chimney damage
Loose top courses and spalling near the crown are common on chimneys that have weathered for decades.
Hidden flashing failures
Flashing can look fine from the ground and still leak; we check it up close.
Liners & caps
We check the flue and cap so you know the inside of the chimney is in good shape too.
