Keith provided excellent service for a chimney liner and cemented the duct from my boiler to the wall.

From that first call to the completion of the job, the many 5 star reviews were right on -- so I'm adding one.
Joe and his assistant arrived early and got right to work, quoting me a very fair price for a full sweep. Little did he know that he would find triple the amount of soot than generally encountered.
Not only did they complete the job with no additional cost (I would have understood an upcharge for the amount of work), but Joe suggested we have the burner serviced as the amount of soot indicated to him a potential failing unit.
These guys did a great job, kept a dirty job from messing up the house -- and made a friend with my dog! They also have a loyal customer moving forward. read less

First off, I was extremely satisfied with their professionalism. I was really pleased with the fact that the owner of the company came with another contractor. Not only did he explain to the maintainence staff the services that we needed but he also explained it to myself and the other administrative staff members (there was a major repair that was needed). I was extremely satisfied with the work they did at my school so I hired them to do a roofing job on my home in addition to rebuilding my chimney. I have referred Ageless Chimney to my friends and family. I strongly feel that anyone would be crazy to hire another company. read less

Not only were they punctual and courteous but they did an amazing job updating the inside and outside of my chimney. Those of you from Levittown know that these houses have been around the block and then some. After coming by to give us an estimate on a chimney cap, they noticed that the top three rows of our chimney was coming apart. With winter coming around the corner, I didn't want to waste any time getting the job done. These guys knew things were getting pretty busy as well and were able to fit us in that day. In a matter of two hours they completely re-did the masonry on our chimney, inserted a stainless steel liner, and installed an new flue and cap.
Their attention to detail while minimizing the impact to a lazy Saturday afternoon was much appreciated by me and my wife. I recommend this family owned business to anyone needing that special attention to their chimney and home. read less

I asked around for recommendations. Friends, neighbors, & other trades that I respected had no one to recommend. I had no recourse but to go online. With much trepidation I got 3 estimates from total strangers. However, apart from the much better price of the work , I felt most comfortable with ageless chimney because they came highly rated from BBB, Angie's list & a number of other rating organizations. I truly made the right decision. Sherwood, one of the owners could not have been nicer. His crew was extremely professional & efficient. He even went so far as to repair something in my boiler room that had nothing to do with the chimney ( at no cost). Great job, price & experience. I would highly recommend them. read less

Got my boiler running cuz it was like 30 degrees out here in New York and was able to get heat that night if it wasn't for these guys I don't know what I would have done thank you guys you're the best highly recommended read less

She scheduled to have someone come out for an estimate a few days after my call. Someone called to confirm the appt a couple of days prior. Charlie and Terry showed up early (could it get any better?!) and my parents felt so comfortable with their ability to complete the work, they had them just take care of it on the spot! Everyone I interacted with on this repair was so pleasant and friendly! Would not hesitate to use them again or to recommend to others. read less

After having some bad experiences (where I was overcharged and underwhelmed by the service), I turned to Yelp and found Ageless.
Sherwood came to my house promptly and was a complete professional - and extremely personable! Their prices were extremely reasonable and the work was done well. Did I also mention they rescued a family of baby birds that took up residence in my chimney?! Ha!
I will absolutely use them again. read less

The owner Bob came over and he has a way of making you feel comfortable. The price was almost what I had expected. Within a few weeks they had all their materials and started their work. They were neat and efficient which is what I am looking for when hiring a contractor. We couldn't be happier with how the stoop came out and it gave our house the curb appeal that it needed. read less

The crew arrived right on time after calling in advance to confirm their arrival. Once they got here, they scoped out the problem (basically an old roof in need of repair) and declined to charge anything--even for their time. I was prepared to spend several hundred dollars to fix the problem. Having been recently scammed by an earlier chimney con artist who asked my parents to shell out more than 1k for essentially no work, we were surprised and grateful for the honesty of these guys. We will call them again if we have any more problems. read less

Found ageless chimney on Yelp. They responded right away. We set a date and two men came. I think it was an owner and a helper. The owner gave an estimate and we hired him. They did the work same day. They were very professional, courteous and very clean. We submitted the claim to our insurance company. They paid everything (except the deductible) and said the price we were charged was a very fair, good price. The whole experience was easy and not stressful at all. Would recommend this company. read less

Your chimney plays an important role in the comfort and aesthetic appeal of your Old Westfield, NY home, and making sure it’s properly maintained is essential. At Ageless Masonry, we specialize in masonry repair, ensuring that your chimney and other masonry structures remain in excellent condition. Here are the top signs you should contact a masonry contractor for brick chimney repair.
Crumbling Mortar and Bricks
One of the most obvious signs that you need a masonry contractor is crumbling mortar or bricks. Over time, the mortar holding your bricks together can deteriorate, leading to gaps and weakened structures. If you notice loose bricks or deteriorating mortar, it’s essential to seek professional masonry services. Repointing of brickwork, also known as repointing, involves replacing the old mortar with new material to restore the chimney’s integrity.
White Staining (Efflorescence)
Efflorescence is a white, powdery residue that appears on bricks due to water evaporation. While it might seem like a minor aesthetic issue, it indicates excess moisture within the masonry. Moisture can cause significant damage over time, leading to the need for extensive brick repair. If you see efflorescence on your chimney, it’s time to call Ageless Masonry for an inspection and necessary repairs.
Spalling Bricks
Spalling occurs when water enters the brick, causing it to flake, peel, or pop out. This problem is particularly common in areas with freeze-thaw cycles, which can exacerbate the damage. Spalling not only affects the appearance of your chimney but also its structural integrity. Our masonry company in Old Westfield, NY can address spalling issues efficiently, ensuring your chimney remains safe and sturdy.
Chimney Leaks
Water leaks are a clear sign that your chimney needs professional attention. Leaks can occur due to damaged flashing, cracked bricks, or deteriorated mortar joints. Ignoring these issues can lead to more severe damage, including mold growth and structural weakening. Ageless Masonry offers comprehensive masonry repair services to fix leaks and prevent future water damage.
Foul Odors
If you notice unpleasant odors coming from your chimney, it could indicate moisture buildup or debris blockage. These odors can be a sign of more significant issues, such as mold or mildew growth within the chimney structure. Our team in Old Westfield, NY can diagnose the cause of the odor and perform the necessary repairs to ensure your chimney is functioning correctly and safely.
If you recognize any of the above-mentioned signs or need other masonry services, don’t hesitate to contact Ageless Masonry. Our team is dedicated to providing superior-quality masonry repair and maintenance in Old Westfield, NY, and all of Suffolk County.
