Righteous Chimney & Masonry restores the brick and stone homes of Cleveland Heights, OH — tuck pointing, chimney rebuilds, crown repair, and relining on the Tudors, colonials, and century homes around Cedar-Lee, Coventry, and Fairmount.
Cleveland Heights is one of Greater Cleveland's grandest older suburbs, full of 1910s–1930s Tudors, colonials, and stone homes with substantial masonry chimneys — often two or three per house. These are the kinds of fireplaces and chimneys built to be used, and after a century they need expert restoration to stay safe.
Tudor-style homes around Fairmount and Cedar Fairmount frequently have decorative brick and stone chimneys with intricate detailing — the kind of masonry that requires patience to repair correctly. We rebuild crowns, repoint deteriorated joints, replace cracked clay liners with stainless steel, and match the original brick and stone when sections have to come down and go back up.
The neighborhoods around Cedar-Lee and Coventry are dense with century homes where deferred chimney maintenance is common — the fireplace gets used every winter but the chimney hasn't been inspected in years. We sweep, run a Level 2 camera inspection, and give you a straight answer on what's safe and what needs work. No fear-selling, just an honest report.

A 1925 Tudor near Fairmount had a decorative brick chimney with a failing crown and a cracked clay liner. We rebuilt the crown, relined the flue with stainless steel, and repointed the visible joints with a mortar matched to the original — preserving the home's character while making the fireplace safe to use again.

Another company tried to sell me a full chimney rebuild. Righteous came out, ran a camera inspection, showed me the actual flue, and said all I needed was a sweep and a new cap. Saved me thousands. This is who I'll call from now on.
Two roofers couldn't figure out where the water was coming from. Righteous found it was the chimney crown and flashing, rebuilt the crown, reflashed, and waterproofed it. Dry through the whole winter for the first time in years.
Our brick was crumbling at the joints. They repointed the whole chimney and a section of wall with mortar that actually matches the original. You can't tell where the new work starts. Craftsmanship you don't see much anymore.
Swept the chimney, inspected it, and walked me through everything with photos. Showed up on time, laid down drop cloths, left zero mess. Fair price, no upselling. Exactly how it should be done.
Yes. Many Cleveland Heights Tudors and colonials have detailed decorative masonry chimneys. We repair and rebuild them carefully, matching the original brick, stone, and mortar so the restoration preserves the home's character.
Of course. Older Cleveland Heights homes often have multiple flues for fireplaces and the original furnace. We inspect each one and tell you which are safe to use and which need work — many older flues are unused and can be capped off safely.
It depends on the damage. Minor issues can sometimes be repaired, but cracked or spalling clay tiles in a frequently-used Cleveland Heights fireplace are usually best solved with a stainless-steel liner sized to the appliance. We inspect with a camera first and recommend only what's needed.
