A new chimney installation (or rebuild) may be the right move when the existing chimney is beyond repair, unsafe, or repeatedly leaking.
Not sure if you need a rebuild, repair, or new installation? We’ll inspect and recommend the most practical option.
A properly installed chimney is essential for safely venting smoke, heat, and harmful gases from your fireplace, stove, or heating system. Whether you’re adding a new fireplace, upgrading an outdated system, or building a new home, professional chimney installation is critical to ensuring long-term performance, safety, and code compliance.
Chimney systems must withstand constant exposure to heat, moisture, wind, and temperature changes. Improper installation can lead to poor draft, leaks, structural damage, or dangerous carbon monoxide buildup inside your home. That’s why it’s important to work with experienced professionals who understand the complexities of chimney design and installation.
The chimney installation experts at Done Rite specialize in designing and installing chimney systems that are both durable and efficient. We carefully evaluate your home’s layout, roofing structure, and heating system requirements to ensure your chimney is properly sized, positioned, and vented for optimal performance. From masonry chimneys to factory-built and metal flue systems, we install solutions that meet safety standards and local building codes.
A professionally installed chimney enhances the efficiency of your fireplace or heating appliance while reducing fire risks and moisture intrusion. Proper flashing, sealing, and venting are key components of every installation, and we pay close attention to every detail to ensure a watertight, secure finish that integrates seamlessly with your roof.

Many “chimney problems” are actually roof-to-chimney connection problems. That’s why proper flashing and sealing details are essential during installation.
Leak traced to compromised flashing and missing shingles. Replaced damaged components, sealed transitions, and verified the repair with a controlled water test.
Full roof replacement due to age and granule loss. Removed old materials, repaired decking where needed, upgraded protection at eaves/valleys, and installed a new ventilation-ready system.

Timelines vary depending on whether it’s a partial rebuild or full installation.
Factors that affect schedule:
Full rebuild vs partial rebuild scope
Chimney height and roof access
Weather windows and safety conditions
Roof tie-in work (flashing complexity)
Materials and curing time where applicable
We’ll give you a realistic timeline before work begins.
Permit requirements can vary by municipality and by scope. If a permit is required, we’ll help confirm what your town needs and guide the process.
In some cases, yes—partial rebuilds can be an option when the lower structure is stable. We’ll inspect and recommend the best approach.
If leaks are caused by failing structure or poor roof-to-chimney detailing, proper rebuild and flashing integration can make a major difference.
Caps and crowns are common components of leak prevention and protection. We’ll recommend what’s appropriate for your chimney setup.
Visible cracking, leaning, loose masonry, or recurring moisture damage are common warning signs. An inspection is the best way to confirm the condition.
