We’re neighbors, homeowners, and tradespeople who believe fireplace season in Connecticut should be warm, safe, and worry‑free. Cheshire Chimney Specialists was founded to bring clear communication and dependable workmanship to every visit—whether it’s a routine sweep, a real‑estate inspection, or a complex masonry repair. We combine hands‑on roof work with current standards so our recommendations are practical, code‑aligned, and right for your home.
Because we live and work in Cheshire, CT, we understand how local weather and building styles influence chimney performance. Freeze–thaw cycles, wind‑driven rain, soft historic brick, and exterior chimneys all play a role in draft and durability. That local knowledge guides how we assess problems and how we fix them for the long term.
We’re a full‑service chimney company. Our work includes chimney sweeping and cleaning, Level 1–3 inspections for maintenance and real‑estate transactions, masonry repair (tuckpointing, brick replacement, crown rebuilds), cap and damper installation, flashing correction, waterproofing, and stainless‑steel liner installation sized for wood, gas, or oil appliances.
Drop cloths and containment keep work tidy. HEPA‑filtered tools capture dust so your living space stays clean.
We explain options and priorities—what’s urgent for safety, what prevents leaks, and what can be monitored over time.
Our materials and methods are chosen for freeze–thaw durability and long‑term performance in New England homes.
We’re happy to help. Tell us what you’re experiencing—smoke rollout, odors, staining, or draft concerns—and we’ll recommend the right service.
