I can't express how happy I am with Patrick & his crew. I had a very tired leaning chimney, they repointed it & it straightened out & looks flawless. The grout lines r very attractive & no mess left behind on my new roof. So glad I had MRW! I highly recommend!

Chimney repair, rebuilding & repointing
Leaning, crumbling or leaking chimneys are the most common call we get. We repoint, rebuild, re-flash and cap them so they stop letting water into the house.
What we do
Chimneys
- Chimney repointing and rebuilds
- Crown repair and replacement, crown seals
- Flashing repairs
- Chimney caps for rain, animal and spark protection
- Chimney liners and flue liner repair
- Damper repairs and spark arrestors
- Firebox repairs
- Chimney inspection
- Tuckpointing and masonry repairs
When a liner is needed
Faulty or damaged flue tiles, holes or scaling in the flue passageway, a flue that is too large for the fireplace’s output, a high-efficiency or condensing furnace, or no existing liner at all.
Why the damper and cap matter
They block water seepage that causes black mold and that wet, burnt-wood smell, stop bricks absorbing water that expands in winter, and keep animals and insects out of the flue.

What customers said about this kind of job.
Patrick and his crew did an outstanding job repointing my 100 year old fieldstone chimney. Exactly how I wanted it, it looks better than new. He has all good reviews for a reason.
Patrick was great to work with. Our chimney had several failed bricks and water was leaking in behind the flashing. Patrick's crew replaced the failed bricks, pointed the entire chimney and installed new flashing. They were very nice to talk to and they did a great job cleaning up every day.
I contacted MRW and Patrick to refurbish my 95 year old chimney and am so glad I did. He was friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. As I’ve never been up on my roof and really have no knowledge about what’s what, it was reassuring to have someone who could not only take care of it, but educate me as well.
I’ve had both roofers and chimney sweeps tell me its a “beautiful chimney” and me and my nice old house are very happy with it!
Patrick and his crew came to fix our leaking chimney, they did an awesome job at a great price. Communication and repair were prompt and quick. They left scaffolding up to make sure the chimney was no longer leaking. We are so happy to have found an awesome mason and would highly recommend using them as they did a quality job.
Patrick and his crew did an outstanding and thorough job with the repointing of exterior brick on our 90 year old house. We needed one entire small chimney repointed, and part of a large chimney, plus an adjoining wall and small bits around the house. They did a thorough job of deep grinding the joints, applying new mortar, and acid washing, and also did a great job of putting up scaffolding and protecting our slate roof. Patrick even repaired a roof slate that had slipped out of place near one of the chimneys. I really appreciated that they worked their way around the house and were very thorough in fixing all the spots that needed it. Excellent cleanup after the job, too. Very professional work and clear communication - would definitely hire them again!
Patrick was quick to respond, reasonably priced, communicative, and got us on the schedule right away. He did a great job fixing our chimney and completed everything quickly. Highly recommend!
Chimney repointing was completed in one day at a fair price. Work was efficient and went beyond expectations. Friendly crew and easy to correspond with.
Patrick and his crew repointed our gorgeous old fieldstone chimney. It was a tricky project, but they didn’t stop until they had everything perfect. We were so thankful, because we had been worried about it for years and had dreaded finally taking action. On top of that, they went above and beyond and did some extra work for us at no cost. So thrilled with the outcome!
I had chimney repair and painting
It was done promptly and carefully for the estimated price
I am completely satisfied with the work and friendly staff
Our house needed chimney work because the original contractor's mason did a slipshod job 8 years ago. Patrick and the crew and MRW were very professional, timely, clean, polite, and the price was right. Hingham.
Did a great job of repointing my chimney. We’re very professional in the way everything was set up, and they cleaned up every day. Would definitely recommend them.
