The older cottages
Pre-war and post-war Brookhaven houses have genuine masonry chimneys, and at that age the liner and the crown are where it shows. Both are repairable and neither is visible from the living room.
Brookhaven is the sharpest split we cover: around one home in ten predates 1960 while nearly six in ten have gone up since 1990, often on the same street as teardowns and rebuilds. Two houses side by side can need completely different work, so we never assume from the postcode.

About 1 in 10 homes in Brookhaven predate 1960 while about 6 in 10 have gone up since 1990 (U.S. Census, 2020–2024), and that single fact decides what is likely wrong with yours.

New construction here almost always means a factory-built firebox and a metal flue inside a framed chase. These are listed appliances — the panels, gaskets and chase cover are specified by model and cannot be patched with something generic.
This is the whole reason we look first. Quoting masonry work on a factory-built unit, or the reverse, is how people end up paying for the wrong job. We read the firebox and the data plate before saying a number.
Not sure which kind is in your house? That is exactly what the free inspection answers, and you get the written price before anything starts.
Also useful: how we sweep a chimney and everything we repair.
One visit covers the full flue, the firebox and everything on the roof — and you get a written free quote for any repair we find.
Chimney work isn’t one-size-fits-all. A single-storey flue that gets used twice a winter is a different job from a two-storey stack with a season of creosote on it.
So rather than advertise a number that changes the moment we arrive, we look at your actual chimney and give you a free estimate in writing — then you decide.
Most chimney problems start small and cheap. Left alone through a few Georgia winters, they stop being either.
The concrete slab on top takes the weather first. Hairline cracks let water in, and freeze-thaw cycles widen them until the masonry starts coming apart. We reseal before that happens.
A missing or rusted-through cap is an open invitation for rain, leaves, squirrels and birds. A new stainless cap keeps all of it out and lasts for years.
The liner is what keeps heat and combustion gases inside the flue instead of in your walls. If we find cracks or gaps, we'll show you and explain the options plainly.

The things people ask us most before booking.
Completely. An older Brookhaven cottage has a brick chimney where age shows in the liner and the crown. A rebuild next door almost certainly has a steel firebox in a framed chase, which is a listed appliance with model-specific parts. Same street, different trade. We identify yours on the free inspection before quoting.
Look inside the firebox. Brick laid in mortar with a metal damper up in the throat is real masonry. Smooth moulded panels with visible seams and a metal frame around the opening is factory-built. If it is not obvious, that is fine — telling you is part of the free visit, and it costs nothing either way.
It depends on the height of the chimney, the type of flue and how much creosote has built up since the last sweep. That's why we start with a free estimate — we look at your actual chimney and give you a flat written price before any work starts. No trip fee, no surprises.
Once a year if you use your fireplace regularly, and always before the first burn of the season. Even a lightly used chimney should be inspected annually — animals nest in open flues over summer, and crown cracks don't announce themselves.
No. We seal off the fireplace opening and run our vacuum the whole time we work, so the soot goes into our equipment rather than onto your floor. We leave the hearth cleaner than we found it.
We cover all of metro Atlanta and the surrounding suburbs — from Woodstock and Kennesaw in the north to Fayetteville, McDonough and Covington in the south. Enter your address in the form and we'll confirm availability when we call.
