Choosing our company brings you the best of both worlds. We are a small family owned business with just as much experience as the big companies. Our technicians have over 30 years experience each and are also masons. Since we are a family owned business, we aren't just putting in our time at work, we put in our all every time. Don't forget about our no mess guarantee! What to expect with us: One of the first things we do before we start is put down a drop cloth to keep your home clean. After we've thoroughly cleaned and inspected the inside of your fireplace, we then check out the condition of the outside of the chimney. If we find anything wrong while we are on the roof, we will take pictures to show you. We will then go over a estimate with you to decide whether you'd like to proceed with the recommended repairs. Most repairs can be made the same day unless we need to special order some parts. Our customers say that we are courteous, prompt, fair, thorough and clean!

"Rob was quick to check out the issues found during an inspection on my for-sale home. His work looked great and I was pleased with the warranty on the work and photos so I could see how it looked. I would hire Rob again!"

"Robert came and fixed my washer. Which gave me peace of mind since another company came 3 times and just stood there and said they had to replicate the problem; they never did. I told them something was burning. Anyway, Robert came, ran the machine and found the problem. If I ever have another problem, I will not hesitate to call him. Very happy with him."

"I recently hired JPL Masonry to construct a brick mailbox for my home, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. Firstly, Johnathan and the team at JPL Masonry was incredibly professional and responsive. He promptly returned my calls and provided a detailed estimate for the project. He listened to my ideas and made outstanding suggestions that enhanced the final design. The craftsmanship is truly top-notch. The bricks are laid perfectly, and the mailbox is sturdy and elegant. It's clear that the Jon and his team take great pride in their work. They paid attention to every detail, ensuring that the mailbox not only looks great but will also stand the test of time. Moreover, the team was punctual and efficient. They completed the project within the estimated time frame and left the work area clean and tidy.

"I called for a free estimate, Justin came promtly and inspected the chimey. He showed me pictures of the problems and spelled out all the options. I explained to him that my cellar has floode due the problems and was anxious to get the repairs done. Justin quoted a price that was fair and much lower then any other estimates. To my surprise he said that he could do the job that day. He kept sending me pictures as the work progressed so I knew exactlywhat he was doing. He was professional and honest about what needed to be done. I was more then pleased with him and the company. I highly recommend .Chimneys are us."

A typical repair of an igniter can range from $100 to $150. However, if you need to repair your mantel, expect the bill to be anywhere from $500 to $1,200.

If you add a hearth to your fireplace, you can expect to pay between $3 and $200 per square foot. However, if you're refacing your fireplace, the price tag will depend on your chosen materials.
