New Chimney Construction in Connecticut

ABC Chimney Solutions can build a complete new masonry chimney from the footing or foundation to the top of the system. The project can include the structural base, masonry, flue or liner, crown, flashing, cap and the venting connection needed for the appliance the chimney is designed to serve.

Built for the system it serves

A new chimney is designed around the appliance, fuel, venting requirements, structure and applicable code. ABC Chimney Solutions selects the masonry and venting components for the project instead of copying a generic chimney detail.

Complete project coordination

If the new chimney or connected appliance requires permits or other licensed trades, ABC Chimney Solutions can coordinate those steps for an additional fee or work with the professionals selected by the homeowner.

Structural Inclusions

Also part of Rebuild & Construction

A rebuild becomes worth considering when damage is widespread enough that repeated spot repairs no longer make financial or structural sense. ABC Chimney Solutions compares the cost and long-term value of repairing the existing chimney with rebuilding the damaged section, and sometimes a rebuild is surprisingly close in price to a long list of individual repairs.

Questions & Answers

New Chimney Construction — frequently asked

What homeowners ask ABC Chimney Solutions most often about new chimney construction.

Can you build a chimney where there is no existing chimney?

Yes. ABC Chimney Solutions can build a new masonry chimney from the footing or foundation through the masonry, flue system and top components. Learn more about this service.

Do you build the foundation for a new chimney?

Yes. ABC Chimney Solutions can include the required footing or foundation in a complete new chimney construction project when the design requires it. Learn more about this service.

Can you build the liner, crown, flashing and cap too?

Yes. ABC Chimney Solutions can build the full chimney system, including the appropriate flue or liner, crown, roof flashing and cap based on the project. Learn more about this service.

What does ABC Chimney Solutions mean by built for the system it serves?

A new chimney is designed around the appliance, fuel, venting requirements, structure and applicable code. ABC Chimney Solutions selects the masonry and venting components for the project instead of copying a generic chimney detail. Learn more about this service.

What does ABC Chimney Solutions mean by complete project coordination?

If the new chimney or connected appliance requires permits or other licensed trades, ABC Chimney Solutions can coordinate those steps for an additional fee or work with the professionals selected by the homeowner. Learn more about this service.

Can you build a chimney where there was never one?

Yes. ABC Chimney Solutions builds complete chimneys from the foundation to the cap, designed around the appliance that will actually be connected to it. Learn more about this service.

What decides the chimney's height and size?

The appliance, the fuel, the roof, and the requirements that apply, not appearance. A chimney sized by how it looks is how draft problems are built in from the start. Ask ABC Chimney Solutions about it when you book new chimney construction. Learn more about this service.

Is a masonry chimney always the answer?

No. Where a masonry stack is not practical, a listed chimney system can serve the same appliance, and the choice is made on the building rather than on habit. ABC Chimney Solutions can tell you which applies to your chimney when it looks at new chimney construction. Learn more about this service.

Does a new chimney need a liner?

It needs a flue correctly sized for the appliance, which is designed in from the beginning rather than added afterwards. This is part of what ABC Chimney Solutions checks before quoting new chimney construction. Learn more about this service.

Can you build to match the house?

Yes, and on an older property matching brick, bond and detailing is part of the brief rather than an extra. Ask ABC Chimney Solutions about it when you book new chimney construction. Learn more about this service.

Do you coordinate with the builder?

ABC Chimney Solutions can coordinate qualified trades where a project needs licensed work alongside the masonry, which on new construction is usually the point. Learn more about this service.

When does a chimney need rebuilding rather than repairing?

When the deterioration runs through the masonry rather than sitting on its surface. ABC Chimney Solutions rebuilds where repointing and patching would be repeated every few years, and repairs where sound masonry supports the fix. Learn more about this service.

What is a partial rebuild?

The chimney is taken down to sound masonry and rebuilt from there, usually above the roofline. The cutoff point is set by the condition of the material, not by a standard height. ABC Chimney Solutions can tell you which applies to your chimney when it looks at new chimney construction. Learn more about this service.

How long does a chimney rebuild take?

It depends on the size of the stack, the access, and the weather, because masonry needs conditions that let it cure. ABC Chimney Solutions will set out a realistic sequence before starting rather than a best case. Learn more about this service.

Can a chimney be rebuilt in winter?

Masonry work needs temperatures that allow proper curing, so ABC Chimney Solutions will say when a rebuild should wait. Making a deteriorated stack safe in the meantime is a separate and usually quicker job. Learn more about this service.

How It Works

Four steps from first call to certificate

No surprises and no doorstep pricing — you know what happens at every stage before we start.

  1. Book Your Visit

    Call or send the form. We confirm a slot the same working day, with a real arrival window — not a vague morning or afternoon.

  2. Full Inspection

    Every job opens with a survey down the full length of the flue, so what we quote for is what we have actually seen.

  3. Fixed Written Quote

    A price in writing before any work begins. No day-rate creep, no parts found halfway through, no doorstep upsells.

  4. Done & Explained

    The hearth is left cleaner than we found it, and you are told exactly what was done and what to watch.

What Homeowners Say

Reviews from the towns we work in

Eight of the several thousand chimneys we have swept, lined and rebuilt across Connecticut.

The inspection found a cracked clay liner two other companies had missed. Relined in stainless the following week and the smoke coming back into the room stopped dead.
Sarah MitchellHomeowner · West Hartford, CT
Open fire had not been swept in six years. They pulled out a shocking amount of creosote, sheeted the whole hearth, and left the room spotless.
Michael TurnerHomeowner · New Haven, CT
Damp was coming through the chimney breast for two winters. They traced it to a failed crown, recast it and waterproofed the brickwork — bone dry since.
Elena RossiHomeowner · Stamford, CT
Flashing had lifted and the damper had seized shut. Both repaired in one visit, and they showed me the before and after photos on the roof.

Full stack rebuild above the roofline on a 1920s house. They matched the original brick and mortar so closely the neighbors asked who did our repointing.
Priya RamanHomeowner · Greenwich, CT
Booked the sweep on Monday, done Tuesday. The photographs and written flue report are more thorough than the survey we paid for when we bought the place.
Tom AlvarezHomeowner · Fairfield, CT
Our wood stove never drew properly. They worked out the flue was oversized for the appliance, fitted an insulated liner, and it lights first time now.
Grace OkaforHomeowner · Simsbury, CT
Needed the chimney looked at fast for a house sale. On the roof the next morning, and I had a clear answer and a price the same afternoon.
