LF Builders · Toronto & the GTA
Chimney repairs.
Built to stand the weather.
GTA chimneys die from the top down. Water gets into the crown, freezes, opens a hairline into a gap, and a few winters later bricks are spalling their faces off onto the roof. Caught early this is repointing and a crown seal. Caught late it is a partial rebuild. The gap between those two invoices is why we would rather look at your chimney this year than next.

We repoint with mortar matched to the original in hardness, not just colour. Too-hard modern mortar on older brick makes the brick itself fail, which is the expensive way to learn masonry chemistry.
What moves the price
- How high and how bad. Repointing the top few courses is routine. Rebuilding above the roofline is staging and brick matching.
- Crown, cap and flashing. Often the real fix is these three, and they are the cheap end.
- Liner condition if the chimney vents an appliance or fireplace.
