Masonry repair needs a clear scope: tuckpointing, brick replacement, crown repair, waterproofing after repair, or rebuild-level work only when the evidence supports it.
Tell us what you are seeing: crumbling mortar, loose brick, cracked crown, fireplace-side stains, or another masonry issue. We will keep the request on the masonry repair path.
Very happy with the work Franklin did at my house. Came out and gave an estimate and had work done same day. The crew cleaned, capped, pointed three chimneys and added a very stubborn flue connected to the boiler.
Selling my house, and I wanted the chimney inspected They found an issue, and they were able to fix it super fast! Good people!
Franklin Chimney did a wonderful job fixing my chimney and putting in a stainless-steel liner and cap on top of my chimney. They came out quickly for an estimate and did the work in the same week. They were very professional and explained everything they would be doing before the job started. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for honest, reliable, and high-quality service. Thank you for making this such a great experience!
I had an emergency situation that needed immediate help. Franklin chimney came the next morning and estimated the job for me. The estimate was totally in line with the research other companies that I had done and Franklin came out the next day to do the job. I am so relieved to have this major problem in my house corrected. They were great communicators, on time, clean, fair, professional, and did a great job I could not recommend them more.
Very prompt great response time. Very good communication, skilled workforce clean and fast Very professional

Lady was a great person to work with, they came to assess and completed the liner in my chimney I feel safe now and can turn on my heaters knowing I’m safe.
They arrived early. Completed job timely. Kept area clean.
We needed a level 2 chimney inspection on a quick timeline for our HOA. Franklin Chimney came out in less than 48 hours. Booking was very easy and price was significantly better than competitors. Our technician Madi was very efficient and made sure we had the report we needed.
Tony was honest, excellent, and professional in my home. Strongly recommend
A great experience. The workmanship was exceptional and the pricing was way under other estimates. No overselling and high quality finish work. Count me very happy.
Thanks you for Franklin chimney for a wonderful job, they did the chimney liner professional and clean job
I called Franklin Chimney when I noticed flies coming out of my wood burning stove. Maty was here within an hour. He sent a drone up on my roof and discovered a few holes in the mesh that was easy access for birds or squirrels to enter. He sent 2 guys out the next day. They were friendly, efficient and fast. They removed 4 birds and a squirrel. Put a new cap on chimney and sealed it off with mesh. They were done in about 2 hours. I highly recommend Franklin Chimney....thank you for doing a great job!
Chimney masonry sits in one of the harshest places on a local home: above the roofline, exposed on all sides, and repeatedly soaked, dried, frozen, and thawed. A few open mortar joints can become loose brick, crown failure, fireplace leak paths, or liner damage if the stack keeps taking in water. Franklin identifies the failed material, explains the repair sequence, and only recommends rebuild-level work when the evidence supports it.
We help you identify visible masonry issues without turning every problem into a full rebuild.
The written scope explains tuckpointing, brick replacement, crown work, or rebuild logic before approval.
Masonry estimates are backed by photos of the joints, brick faces, crown, shoulders, and roofline transition.
If the brick, mortar, or crown looks damaged, get a clear repair-vs-rebuild scope before the next storm makes it larger.
