Chimneys & Fireplaces

The chimney is the most exposed masonry on your home. It stands above the roofline through every storm, freeze, and thaw of the year, and it plays a critical role in safely venting your heating system. Small problems up top become big problems fast, because water that gets past a failed crown or open mortar joint works deeper with every freeze.

Cougar Masonry rebuilds chimneys from the roofline up or from the ground up, replaces crowns and caps, repoints open joints, and builds new chimneys for additions and new construction. Inside and out, we also build fireplaces and fire features, from classic brick fireboxes to full stone surrounds and outdoor fireplaces that extend your season.

Common Questions

How do I know if my chimney needs work?+

White staining, spalling brick faces, gaps in mortar joints, rust on the damper or firebox, and pieces of crown or brick on the roof are all signs water is getting in. If you see any of these, have it looked at before winter.

Can you match my existing brick?+

Yes. Matching brick and mortar is a core part of chimney work, and we take the time to blend rebuilt sections with the original masonry.

Do you work with wood, gas, and inserts?+

We handle the masonry side for all of them and coordinate with your HVAC or hearth installer so liners, clearances, and venting are done right.
