Expert Chimney Repair in Rockville, Gaithersburg, Olney & Washington Metro

With over 15 years of hands-on experience, ARHT HOME SOLUTIONS inspects thousands of chimneys and has identified the most reliable warning signs homeowners see, such as water stains, crumbling mortar, loose or spalling bricks, persistent smoke backdrafts, and visible cracks in the chimney crown. Our licensed and certified technicians perform Level 1–3 inspections using video-scopes and moisture meters, and we’ve handled scenarios ranging from hairline mortar deterioration to structurally compromised chimneys. ARHT is fully insured, BBB-accredited, and offers a workmanship warranty and transparent estimates so you’ll know whether targeted repairs or a full rebuild is the safest, code-compliant choice.

ARHT HOME SOLUTIONS offers a full spectrum of chimney services backed by more than a decade of field experience, including chimney crown replacement, tuckpointing, flashing repair, relining (flexible and cast-in-place), cap and damper replacement, masonry rebuilds, and waterproofing. Our licensed technicians use professional-grade equipment, industry-standard materials, and follow CSIA-recommended methods; we’ve repaired water infiltration, creosote damage, and deteriorated flues for hundreds of homeowners. ARHT is insured, provides clear written estimates, and stands behind work with a workmanship warranty and high customer ratings to demonstrate trust and authority.

In our experience, chimney repair costs vary widely depending on scope—minor tuckpointing or crown repair is markedly less than full flue relining or partial rebuilds—so ARHT HOME SOLUTIONS provides transparent, itemized estimates after an on-site inspection. With over 15 years in the field, we document problem areas with photos, describe required materials and labor, and offer financing options on eligible projects. ARHT is fully insured, licensed, and BBB-accredited, and we back pricing with a written scope and workmanship warranty so homeowners know exactly what they’re paying for before any work begins.

Based on ARHT HOME SOLUTIONS’ field experience serving homeowners for more than a decade, we recommend an annual inspection and cleaning for active wood-burning systems, and at least a Level 1 inspection every year for gas or rarely used fireplaces. ARHT technicians are CSIA-trained and use video-scope inspections and HEPA-grade vacuums when sweeping; we’ve seen creosote buildup, animal nests, and moisture issues caught early through yearly checks. Our inspections include a written report, camera photos, and prioritized repair recommendations—backed by our warranty and strong customer reviews—to keep systems safe and code-compliant.

A chimney liner protects masonry, improves draft, and contains combustion byproducts; ARHT HOME SOLUTIONS’ licensed technicians have relined hundreds of chimneys using flexible stainless steel liners and cast-in-place systems depending on condition. From our experience, signs you need relining include cracked flue tiles, poor draft, and visible creosote buildup. ARHT performs camera inspections to evaluate flue integrity, explains options with photos, and installs industry-approved liners with manufacturer-backed materials. We’re fully insured, provide written warranties on labor and materials, and remain current with code requirements to ensure safe, durable results.
