If you’re planning an addition or building a new house, leave it to the chimney building to the experts. We help you plan how big the chimney needs to be depending on its intended purpose, and we build you an attractive, sturdy masonry or cinder-block chimney, or a chimney chase, if that’s what’s best for your plans.
Our founder built new chimneys before fixed old ones. We can build a new masonry chimney for you. Let us say this though: while our mason can build anything at all, we like to keep our focus on chimneys.

About Masonry Chimney Construction
Many homeowners, particularly during biting Maryland and Washington, DC, winters, are struck with the idea of adding a chimney to their home.
