Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Nationwide

Every visit starts with

Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed

Worth knowing

Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

Olympia Chimney makes solid, mid-weight residential flue components, and we’ve been repairing and maintaining them in Catonsville homes for years.

This page is for homeowners in Catonsville, Arbutus, Woodlawn, and the greater Patapsco Valley who own an Olympia Chimney system or chimney components and need straight answers. Call (443) 332-7798 and a live person picks up. It might be Wendell.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

Olympia Chimney builds dependable flue components, but every brand has its weak points. Here’s what we actually see on Catonsville rooftops:

  • Mortar joint washout on Olympia brick chimney crowns. Catonsville sits in a freeze-thaw zone that works mortar hard, especially on older homes near the Patapsco. Olympia chimney systems often outlast their mortar. We repoint with Type N mortar matched to your existing joints, no cosmetic shortcuts.
  • Rust-through on Olympia galvanized chimney sections. Galvanized flue pipe is rated for years, not decades. Maryland humidity plus rain cycling accelerates rust at the seams. We replace rusted Olympia sections with OEM-spec galvanized, and if you’re seeing recurring rust, we’ll tell you whether a stainless upgrade makes better sense.
  • Flashing separation where an Olympia chimney meets the roofline. This is the most common leak point we fix in Catonsville. Roofers nail flashing to the chimney, the chimney settles, the seal breaks. We pull the old flashing, re-seat it, and seal with a polyurethane caulk that holds through Maryland temperature swings.
  • Spalling brick face on older Olympia-installed chimneys. When water gets behind the brick face, freeze cycles pop it off in pieces. You’ll see brick crumbs in the gutter or at the chimney base. We cut out the damaged brick, set in matched replacements, and address the water entry that caused it.
  • Chimney cap and spark arrestor failures. Olympia caps take a beating from rain, snow, and the occasional determined squirrel. A damaged cap lets water pour straight down your flue. We stock cap replacements that fit Olympia flue dimensions, so you’re not waiting on a special order.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Process

  1. 1
    Call and talk to a person. We answer, we ask about your Olympia chimney, and we book a time window that works. No call center, no third-party scheduler.
  2. 2
    We show up and look before we quote. Wendell or one of his crew inspects the chimney, takes camera footage inside the flue, and shows you exactly what’s failing. The quote comes before any work starts, and if the flue doesn’t need major repair, we’ll tell you that plain.
  3. 3
    We make the parts decision with you. For Olympia Chimney components, we use factory-spec parts that fit your exact model. If an aftermarket part does the same job for less, we’ll offer it and explain the trade-off. We never install anything that voids your remaining warranty.
  4. 4
    The repair happens the same day, most cases. Repointing, cap replacement, flashing, and galvanized section swaps usually finish in one visit. Rebuilds take longer, and we’ll set that expectation before we start.
  5. 5
    We test and photograph. After the repair, we re-camera the flue and show you the finished work. You see what we see.
  6. 6
    You get the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it’s not right, one call brings us back, no charge. That’s stamped on every job.
