Brick Chimney + Standing-Seam Metal
Re-pointing and flashing replacement on a brick chimney over a slate roof; copper crown rebuild. — Greater Boston, 2023. Project detail by Art Slate Roofing.
A still-sound chimney with three classic failures: a cracked crown, failed mortar joints, and rusted galvanized flashing. None of it called for a rebuild — it called for the right repairs done properly, so that is what we did.
