Working through chimney damage in Bay Colony
What the workmanship warranty stands behind
Our workmanship warranty covers the repair work we agreed and completed. It relates to how that work was done, which is one reason the scope matters so much. A clear description of each repaired part shows exactly what the warranty stands behind.
Because it relates to the work performed, it cannot speak for parts of the chimney we did not repair. Ask us what the warranty means for your particular job before you approve. Keep the written record of the work with the estimate, so the details are easy to find if a question ever comes up about the repaired area.
Comparing two chimney repair estimates
When you hold two estimates, compare them line by line rather than by the total. Check that each one names the same damaged parts, the same materials and the same access and protection.
A lower total can reflect a smaller scope, a different material or work left out. Ask each company what is included, what is excluded and how new findings are handled. We are happy to walk through our estimate so you can see how it lines up against another.
The trouble with quick patch kits
Patch kits, spray sealants and roof cement promise a fast fix for chimney cracks and leaks. Applied over damp or broken material, they tend to fail and can make the real repair harder to carry out.
If you have already tried a patch, tell us what was used and where. We may need to remove it to see the damage beneath. There is no judgment in that, and knowing about it early keeps the estimate accurate. The removal is listed as its own step, so you can see what it adds before approving.
A flue top with nothing over it
Without a cap, rain falls straight down the flue, and leaves, twigs and animals can get in. Water that reaches the damper and the smoke chamber can rust metal and wash out mortar inside the chimney.
We check whether each flue is capped and whether the cap fits and is secure. Adding or replacing a cap is often a small job, and chimney cap replacement covers the fitting in detail. The estimate lists it separately from any damage the open flue has already caused.

Answers on chimney restoration in Bay Colony
What happens during the free inspection for chimney damage?
We look at the accessible parts, from the fireplace opening to the top of the chimney, and connect what you noticed with the part behind it. You hear the findings on site, then receive a written estimate that lists each repair separately.
Will I get anything in writing once the work is finished?
Yes. You receive a written record of the work that names the parts repaired and the materials used. Keep it with the estimate, since it helps anyone who works on the chimney later.
Does a chimney I no longer use still need repairs?
If it is damaged, yes. An unused chimney still sheds rain around its top and at the roof junction. Loose masonry or an open joint can let water into the house whether or not a fire is ever lit.
