Chimney Installation in New Jersey

At First Rate Roofing and Chimney, we specialize in constructing all types of chimneys with precision and care. Our experts ensure that each chimney has a solid concrete footing strong enough to support the structure. All materials used in construction are certified and compliant with local building codes. Throughout the entire process, our team keeps you fully informed, guiding you every step of the way.

Choosing the Right Materials

Selecting the right materials is essential for a durable, safe, and efficient chimney. Our experts assist you in choosing the best options for your home or commercial property. Because chimneys are constantly exposed to extreme heat and smoke, we only use materials that can withstand these demanding conditions.

Our Materials Include:

Flue Liners
We prioritize your family’s safety by using flue liners that meet ASTM C315 specifications. Each liner is carefully inspected for quality to prevent gas or smoke leaks.

Flashing
We use high-quality, corrosion-resistant metal flashing that complies with all local building codes, ensuring a secure seal.

Clay Bricks
Our clay bricks are ASTM-certified for durability and heat resistance, making them ideal for long-lasting chimneys exposed to humidity, rain, and fluctuating temperatures.

Calcium Silicate Bricks
These bricks are naturally resistant to frost and sulfate attacks, providing extra durability for exposed chimneys. They are also easier to work with, allowing precise construction.

Mortar
We use Type N mortar, which is sulfate-resistant and weatherproof. To protect it further, we apply solvent-based dark paint for added durability.

Stainless Steel
We recommend stainless steel for chimney interiors and caps. Stainless steel prevents animal entry, protects against embers, and comes with a full warranty for peace of mind.

Types of Chimneys We Build

We offer a variety of chimney styles to suit your home or commercial structure, allowing you to select the perfect design and material.

Metal Chimneys
Typically double or triple-walled, our metal chimneys are made of premium stainless steel. They can be left exposed for an industrial look or covered with wood or masonry for added aesthetics.

Masonry Chimneys
The most popular choice, masonry chimneys are built with cement, stone, or brick. Our bricks are heat-absorbent, water-resistant, and sulfate-attack proof, ensuring long-lasting performance. They also complement traditional or modern masonry fireplaces.

Pre-Fab Chimneys
A cost-effective, modern option, pre-fabricated chimneys are customizable with your choice of materials and design.

Freestanding Stove Chimneys
We can custom-build freestanding chimneys for stoves, either integrated into masonry structures or pre-fabricated units.
