What's included

What's included in metal chimney repair

Every metal chimney repair job includes a full inspection, the repair itself, and a draft test before we leave. Here's what's covered in a standard visit, and what we quote separately if the scope grows.

01

Camera inspection of the flue

We run a camera inspection system down the full length of the flue to check for cracked, separated, or rusted liner sections. You get the photos and a plain explanation of what we found.

02

Cap and storm collar service

The cap and storm collar are the most common failure points on a metal chimney. We replace damaged caps and reseal or replace storm collars with new hardware matched to your system.

03

Flashing repair or replacement

Failed flashing is where most leaks start. We pull the old flashing, install new material, and seal it correctly against the roof so water can't track under it.

04

Liner section replacement

When individual stainless steel liner sections have cracked or separated, we replace them and re-secure the joints. This is often far cheaper than a full metal chimney replacement in Randolph Town.

05

Draft and smoke test

Before we leave, we run a draft test to confirm the flue pulls correctly and there's no smoke backup. If the draft is off, we find out on our time, not yours.

06

Photo documentation

You get photos of the flue, cap, flashing, and anything we repaired. It's useful for insurance, for resale, and for knowing exactly what's on your roof.

Service overview

What metal chimney repair in Randolph Town actually involves

Metal chimney repair in Randolph Town is the diagnosis and correction of a factory-built or stainless steel chimney system, covering the cap, storm collar, flashing, liner sections, and the joints where water gets in. We start with a camera inspection system to see inside the flue, then check the cap, chase cover, and roof flashing for rust-through and failed sealant. From there it's a matter of replacing what's failed, resealing what's sound, and confirming the whole system meets NFPA 211 clearances before we leave.

Most of the calls we run in Randolph Town come from three things: rust at the cap and storm collar, water tracking down a failed chimney flashing, and liner sections that have cracked or separated after years of heating cycles. If you've been searching for metal chimney repair near me in Randolph Town Massachusetts and getting nothing but roofers who don't touch flues, that's the gap we fill. We also quote metal chimney replacement cost Randolph Town homeowners can plan around before we start.

Leaks stopped at the sourceWe don't caulk over a rusted storm collar and call it done. We pull the cap, inspect the chase cover, and reseal or replace the flashing with new material. That's how a chimney leak stops for good instead of coming back with the next nor'easter.
Code-correct clearancesFactory-built metal chimneys live or die by their clearance to combustibles. We verify every joint and penetration against NFPA 211 and the IRC chimney code, then document what we found. If a previous install cut a corner, you'll know before it becomes a fire risk.
Same-day repair optionsCap replacements, storm collar reseals, and flashing repairs are usually done in one visit. If you need same day metal chimney repair Randolph Town, call before noon and we'll do everything we can to get a tech on your roof that afternoon.

The service timeline

How our metal chimney repair process runs

The process flexes to the condition, but these checkpoints keep decisions clear.

01

Call and schedule

You call (844) 803-2151 or book online. We ask what you're seeing, water stains, smoke backup, rust flakes in the firebox, and set a window. Most Randolph Town jobs get a same-week slot, and we text you when the tech is on the way.

Stage 1
02

Roof and flue inspection

The tech lays drop cloths inside, then goes up top. We run a camera inspection system down the flue, check the chimney cap, storm collar, flashing, and chase cover, and photograph anything that's failed. Takes about 45 minutes on a typical ranch or colonial.

Stage 2
03

Written findings and price

You get the photos, a plain-English explanation of what's wrong, and a fixed price for the repair. If replacement makes more sense, we quote that too so you can compare. No surprises added later.

Stage 3
04

The repair itself

Cap and flashing repairs run one to two hours. Liner section replacements take three to five hours. We use stainless steel liner components from DuraVent or Selkirk, new flashing, and chimney cap hardware matched to your existing system.

Stage 4
05

Test and walkthrough

Before we pack up, we run a smoke or draft test to confirm the flue pulls correctly, check every joint we touched, and walk you through what we did. You get the photos and a workmanship warranty on the repair.

Stage 5

Tools & methods

Tools and methods we use

Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians, so the job is done accurately the first time.

01

Camera inspection system

Lets us see the full length of the flue without tearing anything apart. We use it on every metal chimney inspection to find cracked or separated liner sections.

02

Chimney brush and rods

Sized to your flue diameter, these remove creosote and debris before any repair work. We follow with a HEPA vacuum to keep the house clean.

03

Grinder with diamond blade

Used when we need to cut or shape masonry around a metal flue penetration, or trim a chase cover to fit a new cap.

04

Masonry drill

For anchoring new flashing, cap hardware, and chase covers into brick or block without cracking the surrounding masonry.

05

Drop cloth and HEPA vacuum

Interior protection on every job. We lay drop cloths before we start and vacuum with a HEPA unit when we're done, so you don't find soot later.

06

Mortar jointer and tuckpointing trowel

For repointing the masonry chase around a metal flue when the mortar joints have failed and water is getting in behind the brick.

Use cases

When Randolph Town homeowners call us

These examples show how the service framework adapts rather than forcing every call through one repair.

metal chimney repair
Rusted cap and storm collar, Randolph HeightsA 1990s ranch with the original metal chimney cap, rusted through at the seams. Water was running down the flue and staining the ceiling in the hallway below. The storm collar had failed and the flashing sealant was cracked and pulling away. → New stainless cap installed, storm collar replaced, and flashing resealed with new material. Water test confirmed no leaks. Total job time was about three hours, and the ceiling stain stopped spreading within a week.

Separated liner sections, Randolph Acres

A wood stove setup where two stainless liner sections had separated at the joint after years of heating cycles. Smoke was backing into the room on every cold start, and the homeowner was worried about carbon monoxide. → Both failed liner sections replaced with new stainless steel liner matched to the stove. Joints re-secured and the full flue camera-inspected. Draft test passed on the first try, and the smoke backup stopped immediately.

Failed flashing leak, Randolph Center

A colonial with water tracking down the chimney chase and showing up as a stain on the second-floor ceiling. Two previous attempts to seal the flashing from the outside hadn't worked. The actual failure was under the flashing, not on top of it. → Old flashing pulled, new flashing installed and sealed correctly against the roof deck, and the chase cover resealed. Water test confirmed the leak was fixed. The ceiling stain was dry within two weeks and didn't return the following spring.

Problems we solve

Metal chimney problems we fix in Randolph Town

Most metal chimney calls come down to water, rust, or draft. Here are the ones we see most often in Randolph Town and what happens if they're left alone.

ISSUE

Water staining on the ceiling near the chimney

We trace the leak to its actual source, usually the flashing or storm collar, and repair it with new material. Then we confirm with a water test before we leave so you know it's actually fixed.

SYMPTOM

Rust flakes in the firebox or on the roof

We inspect the cap, storm collar, and liner for rust-through. Surface rust gets cleaned and resealed. Sections that are compromised get replaced with new stainless steel liner components.

SIGN

Smoke backing into the house when the fire is lit

We run a camera down the flue, check the damper, and find the actual cause. Most draft problems trace back to liner damage or creosote buildup, and both are fixable in one visit.

ALERT

Chimney cap bent or missing after a storm

We install a new stainless or copper cap sized to your flue and reseal the storm collar underneath. Most cap jobs are done in under two hours.

Pricing process

What metal chimney repair costs

$250 - $900 for most repairs; $2,200+ for full metal chimney replacement

Phase 01

Chimney height and roof pitch

A steep roof or a tall chimney adds setup time and safety rigging, which raises labor. A single-story ranch with a gentle pitch is the fastest, cheapest scenario.

Phase 02

Scope of the failure

A cap and storm collar job is a fraction of the cost of a multi-section liner replacement. We quote based on what's actually failed, not a flat rate.

Phase 03

Parts and materials

Stainless caps and liner sections cost more than aluminum, but they last far longer. We quote both options when it makes sense so you can decide.
