Chimney Repair
Our chimney repair services address cracks, leaks, and structural damage to ensure safety and efficiency. We install stainless steel liners, repair mortar, and replace caps while adhering to NFPA and CSIA standards. Technicians use advanced diagnostics to identify hidden issues and provide lasting solutions for gas, oil, and wood-burning systems.
Roofing Installation
We offer full roofing replacements and installations using durable materials like asphalt shingles and metal roofing. Our team ensures proper drainage, ice dam prevention, and seamless integration with existing structures. All work meets local building codes and includes comprehensive inspections to prevent future leaks.
Gutter Cleaning
Regular gutter maintenance prevents water damage through debris removal and drainage system adjustments. We install guards and repair sagging sections to maintain optimal function. Our technicians inspect downspouts and repitch systems to direct water safely away from foundations.
Masonry Repairs
We repair and install brick, stone, and concrete structures including patios, retaining walls, and foundations. Our masons use tuckpointing and waterproofing techniques to restore integrity while enhancing curb appeal with durable, aesthetically pleasing materials.
Chimney Liners
We install stainless steel and Furan Flex liners to improve chimney efficiency and safety. This prevents carbon monoxide leaks and ensures proper venting for heating systems. Each installation includes a detailed inspection and compliance with IRC and NFPA standards.

We woke up Friday to no neat. PSEG came and checked and said it was our chimney. A-1 did our liner installation ten years before, so I called and spoke with Isabel. She took my information and said she would have a crew out ASAP. The team from A-1 was there within and hour and cleaned and inspected our chimney and I had heat within 30 minutes. They were very professional and polite. I will now call annually to have my chimney inspected and cleaned so this does not happen again. Everyone at A-1 was so great to work with that it was a pleasure working with them.

Used them to seal our fireplace with "smoketite" ceramic insulation as it was beginning to wear out inside. They were very responsive to all my requests and came quickly so we safely resume our winter fire lighting ways! Just as important, they didn't leave a trace of dirt behind.

A very good reliable company. While we started out with concerns, due to several cancelled appointments right before an on-coming storm, we were able to contact the company and they followed through immediately. They heard our concerns and provided excellent quality efficient work. I would recommend them to anyone in need of chimney repair.

First of all, they were late to the appointment. They originally came to clean my fireplace, somehow the first place
They went to was my chimney ( furnace) took pictures. Simple fireplace cleaning turned into changing the lining in my furnace chimney.2100$ later. Technicians are very well trained to get money out of you. They know where the big buck is. When they were done, I asked for them to clean the chimney, unfortunately.they forgot their brushes!!!!! 2 months later I get a letter stating I need to get an inspection done and another 84$ charge for permit!!!I was never made

My oil vendor suggested a chimney inspection. I know the liner had been replaced 10 years ago so I though this would be a routine thing. It turns out the replacement had been done with the wrong materials. A-1 was able to provide me with a reasonable price to correct this. Their technicians were here on time, quickly and efficiently completed the job. I thoroughly recommend their services.

What was to be a simple flue cleaning, turned out to be so much more. A previously installed liner was done completely wrong. It was shown to me with pictures, pointing out issues and detailing what was a problem vs. how it should be handled. That was on a Friday evening. Next morning Frank and his crew were back and went to work, each worker knowing what they had to do and going right to it. All the workers were polite, courteous and knowledgeable and the real show stopper; you truly believed they enjoyed their job. We talked, discussed options, joked a bit and 2 1/2 hours later they were gone
