Stately homes deserve careful chimney care
Libertyville has worked hard to preserve its historic character — its downtown earned a national Great American Main Street Award — and that pride shows in its many stately older homes. These homes often have original brick chimneys and clay tile liners that, after decades of Illinois winters, need expert inspection, tuckpointing, crown repair, and sometimes relining. Done right, that work protects both the safety of the fireplace and the value and character of the home. We treat these chimneys with the care they deserve, matching brick and mortar so repairs blend in.
We also serve Libertyville’s newer homes, where gas fireplaces need a yearly cleaning and venting safety check. Whatever your home, you get an honest assessment and upfront pricing.
A town that values its history
Libertyville’s landmarks include the National-Register Brainerd Building — the 1917 original of Libertyville High School — and historic Cook Park with the 1878 Ansel B. Cook House, near the one-time home of Adlai Stevenson. We’re proud to help keep the fireplaces safe in these well-cared-for homes. More at the Village of Libertyville.

Frequently asked questions
Do you work on Libertyville’s historic and stately homes?
Yes, and with care. Older Libertyville homes often have original masonry and clay liners, and we match brick and mortar on repairs so tuckpointing and crown work preserve both the safety and the character and value of the home.
Why does my older Libertyville chimney need a liner inspection?
Clay tile liners crack with age and heat cycling, and a cracked liner can let heat or combustion gases reach your home. A Level 2 camera inspection shows the liner’s true condition, and we recommend relining only if it’s genuinely needed.
Can chimney repairs protect my home’s value?
Absolutely. In a market like Libertyville, a sound, safe chimney is part of the home’s value, and visible masonry damage or a failed liner can become an issue at sale. Caught early, tuckpointing and crown repair protect both safety and resale value.
Do you also service gas fireplaces in Libertyville?
Yes. Along with masonry and liner work on older homes, we service gas fireplaces throughout Libertyville, including the yearly cleaning and venting check that keeps them safe from carbon monoxide problems.
