What Types of Chimney Services Are Available?
Top Hat & Tails Chimney offers a full spectrum of chimney services designed to protect your home, improve efficiency, and prevent costly issues. Our services include:
Chimney Sweeping
Regular chimney sweeping is essential to keep creosote and soot from building up and becoming a fire hazard. We use professional-grade tools to remove blockages, debris, and residue, ensuring that your chimney vents properly and your home remains protected.
Chimney Flue Relining
If your flue liner is damaged or missing, it can be a serious safety issue. Flue relining involves inserting a new liner to create a properly sized, heat-resistant barrier that helps guide smoke and gases out of your home. Whether your liner is cracked, deteriorated, or improperly sized, we can provide a lasting solution.
Chimney Camera Inspection
We use high-resolution camera equipment to inspect the internal condition of your chimney. This allows us to spot damage that can’t be seen from the outside and helps you understand exactly what’s going on in your system. With every inspection, we provide clear visual evidence and walk you through any findings.
Masonry Repairs
Brick and mortar damage can cause serious chimney deterioration over time. Our masonry repair services include tuckpointing, brick replacement, and chimney crown restoration to keep your structure strong and weather-resistant. We restore your chimney’s integrity and appearance with craftsmanship that blends seamlessly with your original masonry.
Chimney Leak Repair
Water is one of the biggest threats to a chimney. We find the source of leaks and correct them using proven repair methods, whether it’s flashing issues, cracked crowns, deteriorated mortar, or missing chimney caps. Chimney leaks never get better on their own – we make sure they’re stopped at the source.
