Expert Brick Chimney Repair Services in Manassas, VA

By addressing these vulnerabilities quickly, our team stops the cycle of freeze–thaw damage before it cascades into thousands of dollars in structural repairs and interior mold remediation.

Our experienced chimney contractors perform thorough cleanouts, install stainless liners, and verify draft performance to ensure every family breathes clean air and stays warm without worry.

Age, moisture, and chimney fires weaken mortar joints, leaving bricks loose and compromising stack integrity. Where bricks have cracked or delaminated, we source ASTM-rated units that match texture and shade, achieving a seamless patch and ensuring repairs last for decades.

The crown is your chimney’s first line of defense against water, so we never rely on cheap mortar washes. Instead, we form and pour a reinforced concrete crown with an expanded drip edge that channels runoff clear of the brick face.

Above that, a custom-sized stainless cap blocks rain, snow, and animals while letting fume gases vent freely.

Cheap box-store bricks rarely match historic Manassas homes. We prevent differential movement that can reopen joints by selecting bricks with similar porosity and compressive strength. Mortars are custom-tinted on site to blend seamlessly, preserving aesthetics and structural harmony.

Corrosion is the enemy of longevity, so Lotus Masonry specifies stainless steel for caps, top-sealing dampers, and liner systems. For prefabricated fireplaces, we replace rusted sheet-metal chase covers with hemmed, drip-edge stainless or powder-coated aluminum tops that will never pit or stain siding.

Investing in premium metals eliminates the need for future rust remediation and maintains a polished appearance year-round.
