From Residential to Commercial, we proudly serve all Massachusetts since 1988
Spalling Bricks
Here, the spalling bricks are replaced with high-quality sulfate-resistant mortar, which helps in getting rid of such negative issues. These areas being in coastal areas are prone to the salt present in the coastal winds. This may be beyond the sight of some people which worsens the chimney state over time, thus endangering the life of the chimney tower.
Leaning Chimneys
A leaning chimney is not a laughing matter. If your Boston chimney appears to be leaning, we can help with innovative helical anchors that support the chimney from beneath and provide steady balance, thus making sure that the chimney is in an upright position and is strong.
Crown Cracks
If the cracks in your chimney crowns are letting raccoons inside your chimney, we will seal these cracks found in chimneys to ensure that no more raccoons will be disturbing homeowners in Newton Centre but instead allow the homeowners to enjoy their peace of mind.
Local Insight
Many Charlestown chimneys lack dampers unnecessarily. Did you know that if you are to ask about the incorporation of Damper, or any retrofitting to minimize losses within the chimney section?

Mike did a beautiful job him and his crew. My driveway came out excellent here in Quincy. Michelle Goodwin2025-03-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The crew spent 7 days at our 325 year old home repairing our three chimneys and sealing our stone and brick basement. In addition, they patched some areas in the basement that we weren’t expecting and did some additional work outside to help with water drainage. They also installed chimney caps for us. There was a lot of dust created (it’s a messy job) but the crew cleaned as best they could and better than I expected. Overall, we are happy with the work done.

Sean Kilduff2024-07-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have been thinking about paving the driveway for some time now and decided to take the plunge. After researching, I noticed all the positive reviews and comments about Boston Choice, Mike and his team. I'm not going to lie, when I called, I was hoping would get this guy Mike and sure enough it was him! Mike arrived about an hour after I called to take a look. I explained what I would like done. It is about 1200 sq ft, so on the bigger side. Mike told me what his team could do, and we shook on it. Sure enough, the next day his team was here early with all sorts of equipment. This was just the other day...on the 90+ degree weather/heatwave. They work hard, removed a couple of very stubborn tree stumps and deep, deep roots. It was awesome to watch! Mike and his team finished the driveway that day! But they did have to come back the very next day to add a French drain because of the slope/pitch of driveway. These workers are beasts and got that done in one day as well. Amazing! They also did this spot in the front of the house which was awesome. So, the final product is fantastic. I am extremely happy with how it turned out. What a difference. I cannot say enough good things about this company, Mike and his team. Mike is knowledgeable, hands-on and charismatic. You can tell he's a good guy and takes care of his team. Which is very important to me. Definitely a five-star review!
