The Jobs We Take Near Somerville

Your nearby Somerville crew gets called for all sorts of chimney jobs. One call reaches a crew equipped for all of it.

Chimney Sweep

Every fire you burn in a Somerville fireplace leaves a little more creosote bonded to the flue wall, and that residue is exactly what feeds a chimney fire. We sweep from the top down and the bottom up, contain the mess with filtration, and leave the firebox cleaner than we found it. The freeze-thaw swings in area stress chimney masonry, and a sweep is also our chance to catch cracked tiles or a failing crown early. Our cleaning cadence advice follows NFPA 211, inspect annually and sweep when the buildup warrants it, not a scare-tactic schedule. Reach 508-305-7829 for a area sweep that comes with photos, not a sales pitch.

Chimney Inspection

After any chimney fire, a Somerville flue must be inspected before it is used again, because heat can crack tile liners in ways you never spot from below. Our camera scan reaches the parts of a Somerville flue no flashlight can, and the written report spells out condition, risk, and any recommended next step. Older area chimneys with original clay tile liners are exactly the ones where a camera scan finds hairline cracks the eye misses. Our report separates must-fix-now, watch-this, and no-action-needed so you can make the call with real information. Get us at 508-305-7829 for an honest, written assessment of your Somerville chimney.

Chimney Repair

A Somerville chimney that draws fine can still be failing structurally, with deteriorating mortar joints and a crown that no longer sheds water. We repair the flashing, repoint the mortar, patch or rebuild the crown, and seal the masonry so a Somerville chimney sheds water the way it used to. A Somerville chimney that has shed brick for a couple of winters usually needs more than a patch, because freeze-thaw has been working behind the face. No scare tactics about a reline you do not need; we repair what is failing and leave the rest alone. Ring 508-305-7829 to have your Somerville chimney repaired and waterproofed right.

Chimney Cap Installation

A Somerville fireplace that smells of animal or drips after rain is usually missing the one component that would have stopped both: a proper cap. We size the cap to the actual flue, choose stainless or copper for corrosion resistance, and mount it so wind and weather will not lift it. In area, downdraft complaints spike in winter when wind hits an uncapped flue, and the right cap design steadies the draft. If your crown needs a small repair to anchor the cap properly, we tell you up front rather than mounting onto bad masonry. Call 508-305-7829 to stop rain and wildlife from getting into your flue.

Chimney Crown Repair

When a Somerville chimney crown develops cracks, water seeps in, freezes, expands, and widens those cracks every single winter until the crown fails outright. The crew repairs hairline crown cracks with a purpose-made coating, or forms and pours a new crown with the overhang the original was missing. In area, the swing between a cold night and a sunny winter day stresses a crown more than steady cold ever would. The fix is sized to the failure, sealing the sealable and rebuilding the failed, at a price quoted up front. Ring 508-305-7829 to fix the crown before freeze-thaw takes the whole stack.

Chimney Liner Installation

When the original clay tile liner in a Somerville chimney fails, gaps open between sections and the flue can no longer safely contain a fire or vent its gases. Delgado Chimney Care confirms the need with a camera scan, specifies the right liner, flexible stainless or cast-in-place, sizes it to your appliance, and installs it insulated to code. A Somerville wood stove tied into an oversized old fireplace flue draws poorly until a correctly sized liner is installed. If your existing liner is sound, we will tell you, because relining is a real expense and we only recommend it when the flue genuinely requires it. Phone 508-305-7829 and we will make your Somerville flue safe to use again.

Photos That Are Yours

Before-and-after photos and camera footage come with the job, so you have a record for your own files, the next buyer, or an insurance claim. That habit is half the reason the referrals keep coming.
