Project Completed: Chimney Rebuilt in Westchester, NY

American Star Contractor recently completed a chimney rebuilding project for a home in Westchester, NY. The homeowner’s chimney was deteriorating due to years of exposure to the elements, with cracks, mortar damage, and signs of structural instability. We provided a complete rebuild to restore both safety and functionality.

Project Overview
The chimney was severely damaged, with visible cracks and worn-out mortar that posed a potential safety hazard. After evaluating the extent of the damage, we recommended a full rebuild to ensure the chimney would operate safely and efficiently, improving the home’s overall safety and functionality.

Scope of Work

  • Removed the existing damaged chimney structure

  • Rebuilt the chimney with high-quality masonry materials

  • Repointed and resealed the chimney to ensure water resistance

  • Installed new chimney liners to improve venting and reduce risks of fire hazards

  • Ensured proper flue and cap installation for efficient draft and protection

  • Completed a final inspection to ensure all components were securely in place and safe for use

We used durable, high-performance masonry materials that are built to withstand Westchester’s weather conditions. The chimney rebuild included fire-resistant bricks and a new stainless steel chimney liner for enhanced safety and efficiency.
