We’re licensed and insured to install new chimneys on all of Long Island. Whether you have a new home that needs a brand-new chimney installed or an established home that needs a full chimney replacement – we can help. We’ll first consult with you on what chimney style and material you may want (or what chimney we recommend for your specific needs) based on your home’s structure, needs and budget. We can help educate you on any or all of these chimney choices, including the pros and cons and the structures they’re best suited for.

New Brick, Masonry Or Prefab Chimney Installations

A chimney is obviously a necessary component for many, if not all, homes and businesses. Perhaps your chimney doesn’t require a full replacement – but simply needs a small repair and some TLC. If your home totally lacks a chimney (or has some missing or damaged chimney parts) then it’s time to rely on the chimney repair experts at Expressway Chimneys before the real damage kicks in.

We’re happy to do a partial or full chimney flashing replacement – based on your particular needs. We’re happy to inspect your suspect chimney flashing and recommend the next steps. We can also repair incorrectly installed or damaged chimney flashing.

EXPERT CHIMNEY REPAIRS & INSTALLATIONS

Brick Chimney Repairs

To prevent serious water damage and worse to your property, Expressway Chimney is very experienced in assessing the current state of your chimney, brick and mortar and then making the necessary cement or leak repairs. These may include: re-pointing, re-capping, reapplying render and leadwork. If your chimney is visible from the ground, here are a few things you can look for yourself to determine if you need an expert like us to come out and asses your chimney: cracks in the chimney, missing flashing, flaking brick, a cracked or missing crown, deterioration of lime mortar joints and missing chimney pots. It’s best to resolve these problems immediately before a small job turns into a total rebuild of your brick chimney.

Chimney Masonry Repairs

In chimney masonry speak – to ‘repair’ or ‘restore’ mortar means to replace it. In most cases brickwork restoration requires the replacement of mortar on the exposed surface of a wall.  Our experts refill the damaged mortar joints with an appropriately colored base mortar and do the tuck pointing and then we repair the damaged brick to prevent further leaks. We’re the leading brick crack repair company on Long Island. Our chimney crack repair services will reposition and stabilized the cracked or dropped sections and cleaned up the brick wall cracks and raking back the mortar joints. We are expert at fixing cracked crowns, damaged bricks, missing mortar and whatever other stone or brick chimney problem you’re facing.

Prefab Chimney Repairs

Looking for information on repairing your prefabricated chimney? Deterioration of prefabricated chimneys is common. Many chimneys have not been waterproofed or were made of wood. Wood rots over time no matter how many times you paint it. Expressway will tear down your prefab chimney made of any kind of material and rebuild the chimney from the bottom up – if that is what is necessary. When rebuilding we frame, skin, board or plank, trim, seal, flash and install a new chase cover. No leaks! Brand new prefabricated chimney! When rebuilding a chase – you must have a new chase cover installed. Old chase covers will not fit properly on a new prefab chimney.

Freestanding Chimney Repairs

The NFPA 211 recommends fireplaces have their flues swept and inspected annually. Deposits left in flues from burns can be corrosive and flammable and should be removed via an annual chimney sweep. Once your chimney flue has been swept, a visual inspection will be performed to make sure your fireplace and freestanding stove pipe is in good condition. Our  chimney cleaners are equipped with the knowledge and expertise that insure their ability to provide professional chimney cleaning services. Our chimney cleaners’ expertise guarantee the peace of mind and safety you are looking for when hiring a professional chimney cleaning company.

New Chimney Installations

 Whether building a new masonry chimney or installing a factory-built chimney, it’s important that the flue is the recommended size by the manufacturer for the fireplace or wood stove.  Imagine a wood, electric, or gas fireplace gracing a prime spot in your Long Island home. It will let you enjoy the ambiance and beauty of the fire all year round. We approach every new chimney installation as if it were in a family member’s home. That is why you should have the professionals at Expressway look at it as soon as possible. A chimney chimney now could prevent a major chimney rebuild later. If you’re installing a new wood-burning stove, a chimney is needed for venting purposes.

New Chimney Flashing

Ensuring that water is properly diverted away from your chimney and prevented from intruding is of utmost importance. Chimney flashing was invented to prevent water from intruding at the intersection of the roof and chimney. It is essentially another chimney waterproofing method. Chimney and roof leaks are usually the result of deteriorated, non-existent, or improperly installed chimney flashing. Whatever the chimney flashing issue that’s causing your roof leaks – we can repair it.  New aluminum, metal and copper are often used as chimney flashing. Each of these metal chimney flashings has its advantages. Our chimney team can help select the right flashing for your chimney type and adjacent materials. 

Prefab Chimney Installations

Your old prefabricated fireplace was most likely built and safety-tested with a specific chimney in mind. If the wrong fireplace chimney was installed with the prefab fireplace (or if the fireplace is not being used like the manufacturer suggests) the entire fireplace system may be compromised – along with your home and family’s safety. We’re experts at matching the right prefab chimney to your old prefab fireplace.  If you’re a new homeowner, we recommend getting your prefab chimney inspected and cleaned before you light your first fire. if it is the wrong chimney for your fireplace, you will have to get it replaced. This will gives you peace of mind to light your fireplace and cozy up for the winter.

Chimney Flashing Repairs

Does your chimney leak when it rains? If so, you might have a problem with your flashing or chimney waterproofing materials. Chimney flashing is the material that forms a waterproof seal on your chimney at the point it meets the roof line, protecting it from water damage and leaks and is usually made of metal, rubber or vinyl. Leaking is one of the most common problems that chimneys have.  Meaning, if your chimney leaks when it rains, you should have it looked at by a professional. There are many reasons why your chimney may leak when it rains, making it hard to know what the exact cause is. 

Chimney Liners & Flues

The chimney flue and the chimney liner are two of the most vital aspects of a chimney structure. We’ll always inspect the flue and liner while carrying out maintenance work on the chimney. Since there are a large number of chimney relining products available on the market, we’ll give you with all the chimney liner information you need to help you make a well-informed decision. If your chimney doesn’t have a liner, it’s important that you get one installed without delay. As part of our chimney services, we can install high-quality liners with iron-clad guarantees. If you’re looking for a reliable contractor, for chimney liners installation, don’t hesitate to call Expressway at 631.388.7555 or contact us through our website form below.

Chimney Crowns & Covers

The chimney crown is exactly as its name suggests: it crowns (tops) the top end of a chimney. Another name for a chimney crown is a chimney wash. It’s one of many essential chimney parts, but few people realize that its main purpose is to act as a protective roof or chimney cap that shields the chimney’s structural elements from weather-related deterioration. This is important because, in many cases, mortar is naturally weaker in the chimney’s upper section due to the more extreme weathering up so high and will slowly fall apart if exposed to repeated rain and snow. Our crowns are constructed according to the NFPA 211 standards for chimneys.

Chimney Removal

You will need to speak to a lot of experts before simply removing your chimney. Masonry experts will tell you if the chimney can be salvaged and simply sealed off or repaired for less cost than removal. Structural experts will need to be contacted to explain any potential concerns in the event you are removing the breast from one or more floors. Simply removing the stack may not create a lot of debris, but if your plans involve taking out the chimney breast in one or more areas, you may be looking at a large amount of brick and tile. This is expensive to dispose of and may require special permits. We can help.

Chimney Maintenance & Inspections

Chimney maintenance and sweeping involves the cleaning and removing of creosote, checking the fire-worthiness of the flue (liner) and assuring there are no other obstructions or damage to the chimney flue, liner, brick, mortar, box and or cap and crown. We recommend getting your chimney and flue inspected and or swept at least once a year. We provide high-quality chimney services from experienced chimney pros – all at reasonable prices. We have over 225 years of combined chimney experience which gives us the extensive skills needed for all aspects of chimney cleaning, repair, maintenance and replacements. Our techs will diagnose and offer solutions on how to fix any problem you have with your chimney.
