With 12+ years of hands-on experience, our CSIA and NFPA certified team provides complete chimney installation, construction, and rebuild services across Connecticut.

New Chimney Construction in Connecticut
New chimney construction is ideal for:
- New home builds
- Fireplace additions
- Wood stove or gas appliance installations
- Full chimney replacement when repair is no longer safe
We handle residential chimney construction from the ground up, including foundation, masonry, flue system, liner installation, crown, cap, and flashing.
Our team follows NFPA codes and Connecticut building standards, ensuring proper height, clearances, and draft performance. Every chimney is custom-built to match your home’s structure, roofline, and heating appliance.
Chimney Design & Build Services
No two homes — or chimneys — are the same. Our chimney design & build services ensure your system is engineered for both function and longevity.
We design chimneys based on:
- Appliance type (fireplace, wood stove, gas system)
- Interior or exterior chimney layout
- Proper draft and airflow
- Weather exposure and roof design
From masonry chimney installation to modern flue and liner systems, we build chimneys that meet today’s safety standards while blending naturally with your home.
Chimney Rebuild or Partial Rebuild
When a chimney has severe structural damage, rebuilding may be the safest option.
We provide:
- Partial chimney rebuilds (above-roof or upper sections)
- Full chimney reconstruction
- Brick, mortar, and structural restoration
If your chimney is leaning, separating from the house, or has extensive brick failure, rebuilding ensures long-term safety instead of repeated repairs.
Chimney Flue Installation
A properly installed flue is essential for venting smoke, gases, and heat safely.
Our chimney flue installation services include:
- New flue installation
- Flue installation for fireplaces, furnaces, and stoves
- Stainless steel chimney flue liner installation
- Clay chimney flue liner installation
Whether installing a flue in a new chimney or upgrading an existing system, we ensure proper sizing, alignment, and code compliance.
Chimney Liner Installation
Chimney liner installation is one of the most critical safety components of any chimney system.
We install:
- Stainless steel chimney liners
- Insulated chimney liners
- Chimney liners for wood stoves and gas appliances
A correctly installed liner:
- Protects masonry from heat and corrosion
- Improves draft efficiency
- Prevents chimney fires and carbon monoxide leaks
If you’re searching for chimney liner installers in my area, our certified team handles the entire process safely and efficiently.
Chimney Crown Installation
The chimney crown protects your chimney from rain, snow, and freeze-thaw damage.
Our chimney crown installation services include:
- Concrete chimney crown construction
- Sloped crowns for water runoff
- Reinforced crowns to prevent cracking
A properly installed crown prevents moisture damage, extending the life of your chimney structure and liner.
Chimney Cap Installation
Chimney cap installation is a simple upgrade that prevents major problems.
We install chimney caps to:
- Keep rain and snow out
- Stop animals and birds from entering
- Reduce downdrafts
- Prevent debris blockages
If you’re looking for chimney cap installation nearby, or custom-fit caps, we install caps for masonry and metal chimneys.
Chimney Chase Cover Installation
For factory-built or framed chimneys, chimney chase cover installation is essential.
We install:
- Stainless steel chase covers
- Custom-fitted covers
- Weather-sealed installations
A properly installed chase cover prevents leaks, rust, and structural wood damage.
Damper Installation
A damper improves efficiency and comfort by controlling airflow when your fireplace is not in use.
We provide:
- Top-sealing damper installation
- Throat damper installation
- Replacement of damaged or rusted dampers
Damper installation helps reduce heat loss, improve indoor comfort, and protect against moisture intrusion.
Rain Cover Installation
Rain cover installation adds an extra layer of protection against water damage.
Rain covers help:
- Prevent chimney leaks
- Protect liners and flues
- Extend chimney lifespan
This is especially important in Connecticut’s wet and snowy climate.

FAQs
1. How much does chimney installation cost in Connecticut?
Chimney installation cost in Connecticut depends on the chimney type, height, materials, and flue or liner requirements. A basic installation costs less than a full masonry chimney construction. We provide free estimates after inspecting your home and heating system so pricing is accurate and transparent.
2. Do I need a permit for chimney construction in Connecticut?
Yes, most chimney construction and installation projects require a permit in Connecticut. This ensures the chimney meets local building codes and NFPA safety standards. Our team handles installations that comply with code and works with homeowners throughout the permit process when required.
3. What is the difference between chimney construction and chimney installation?
Chimney construction means building a new chimney structure from the ground up. Chimney installation usually refers to installing components like flues, liners, caps, dampers, or chase covers. We offer both services depending on your home’s needs.
4. How long does chimney installation or construction take?
Most chimney installations take one to three days. Full chimney construction or rebuild projects may take longer depending on weather, height, and structural complexity. We always provide a clear timeline before work begins.
5. When should a chimney be rebuilt instead of repaired?
A chimney should be rebuilt when there is severe structural damage, widespread brick failure, or unsafe separation from the house. If repairs cannot restore long-term safety, a partial or full rebuild is the safest option.
6. Do new chimneys require a liner?
Yes. New chimneys must have a properly sized liner to safely vent smoke and gases. Chimney liner installation is required by modern building codes and helps prevent fire hazards and carbon monoxide leaks.
7. How do I choose the right chimney installer near me?
Look for experience, certifications, and code compliance. A qualified chimney installer should be CSIA and NFPA certified, provide clear estimates, and explain the installation process. Choosing a local Connecticut chimney professional ensures familiarity with regional weather and building requirements.
