Chimney Repair
Time and changing weather conditions can cause a great deal of damage to chimneys. Chimney repair is inevitable as years of snow, ice, and rain erode mortar, allowing water to infiltrate the structure. Bricks flake or crumble, becoming a risk to the roof and building below.
At the first sign that chimney repair is in order, call New Era European Construction at (916) 230-8297 for expert repairs.

When to Call Chimney Repair Contractors
When you suspect that there could be something wrong with your chimney, we strongly recommend leaving it to New Era European Construction professionals rather than going out onto your rooftop yourself. Inspecting or working on your chimney can pose a serious fall risk, not to mention the danger of completing unstable work on your structure.
So, without going up on your rooftop, how do you know when it’s time to call a professional? A few tell-tale signs should tip you off that the time has come to contact us. These include:
- Water leaking into the fireplace
- Tiles falling into the fireplace
- The wall above the fireplace looks wet
- There is cracked or broken mortar on the chimney
- There is stone, cement, or brick with obvious damage or missing pieces
- The chimney is missing a chimney cap
- White or dark stains on the side of the chimney
- There is rust on the chimney components
- The chimney is crooked
Quality Chimney Repair Assessments
It’s difficult to tell how dire a chimney’s condition may be without the proper experience and tools. When you have our assessment techs investigate, they’ll safely determine the scope of repairs required or if the chimney has deteriorated beyond repairs. We lower cameras into the chimney for photos, and together with measurements and the exterior analysis, we construct an estimate for repairs.
Ethical Chimney Repair Companies
Our responsibility is to report our findings to the property owner so that any danger due to neglected repairs is averted. Once we provide our assessment and an accurate cost estimate for repairs, it’s up to you whether you would like to proceed with our chimney repairs services. If our estimate is accepted, we’re equipped to make the following same-day chimney repairs:
- Cap repair
- Flue repair (may not be same day)
- Crown repair
- Flashing repair
- Leak repair
- Fire damage restoration
- Brick, stone, or cement repairs
Effective Chimney Cap Repairs
Chimney caps keep everything out and are essential to their function. A missing or broken chimney cap means, at minimum, water is damaging the chimney and can be an urgent repair due to the risk of serious fires and carbon monoxide poisoning. We’ll make quick, precise work of repairing or replacing the cap.
Chimney Flue Repair
A damaged chimney flue can’t safely channel combustibles out or protect the building materials behind it from a fire’s intense heat. It’s essential to allow professional chimney repair contractors to remove the damaged flue and insert a carefully measured, insulated, stainless steel flue. Trust New Era European Construction to get this exactly right.
Chimney Leak Repair
Chimney leaks can occur in several places, and our experts will track down every source. Repairs will consist of waterproofing the chimney, applying a crown coat below the cap, and potentially resealing the flashing along the base of the chimney. We’ll stop leaks efficiently, for good.
