Exterior Repairs
We are a full service chimney company, providing masonry repair and rebuilding, flashing, crown washes, chimney caps, stone veneers, water proofing. We solve all chimney related chimney issues and can bring curb appeal to your chimney or home with stone and brick veneers as well.
The Need For The Level 2 Inspection
When required exterior repair is obvious visually, we must perform a Level II Chimney Inspection. Exterior damage may have been caused by internal or external event that may have also caused damage to the operating components of the chimney system. This is why we cannot simply perform an estimate without examination. Without this inspection, we are flying blind on safety issues and potentially proper repair methods.
It is important to address chimneys and a system and not individual parts for safety and longevity of the system. We at Ryan and Son only perform repairs that we consider to be permanent solutions, so that we can better serve our clients and their chimney needs.
Access To All Locations
We own a full compliment of scaffolds and staging to meet your needs. In the event your chimney system is not scaffold possible, we employ a boom lift. We can access any chimney!

Raising Chimney to Code Height
This chimney was removed to below the roof line, rebuilt to code height, new copper flashing, concrete crown wash and stainless steel multi flue cap to cover both flues in the system. Each of the flues was relined with stainless steel lining system as part of this process.
Before
After
Shown here are the beginnings of roof staging, along with the "before" chimney. In the photo to the right you can see that bricks were matched, partial demolition was done, flashing resealed, and the new build was completed. The height was raised to meet minimum code standard, a new crown was installed, and it has been relined.
