Righteous Chimney & Masonry provides chimney sweeping, inspections, relining, repair, and brick masonry across Parma, OH. From the brick ranches off Ridge Road to the colonials near State Road, we keep Parma chimneys safe and masonry solid.
Parma is the largest suburb in Cuyahoga County, and its housing stock is a chimney contractor's bread and butter: thousands of brick ranches, bungalows, and colonials built in the post-war boom of the 1950s and '60s. Most have masonry chimneys that are now 60 to 70 years old — old enough that crowns are cracking, mortar joints are opening up, and clay flue liners are starting to fail.
We work all over Parma — the neighborhoods around Ridgewood and Ridge Road, the homes near State Road and Snow Road, and out toward Parma Heights. The most common calls here are annual sweeps on well-used wood-burning fireplaces, Level 2 inspections when a home changes hands, and crown and tuck pointing repairs on chimneys that have taken decades of freeze-thaw.
Parma's brick exteriors are as much a part of our work as the chimneys. Spalling brick, crumbling mortar, and settling front steps are everyday jobs on these mid-century homes. Whatever the issue, we quote it in writing before we start and stand behind the work.

A 1958 brick ranch near State Road had a cracked chimney crown letting water down into the flue. We rebuilt the crown, swept and inspected the flue, sealed two hairline cracks in the brick, and waterproofed the stack — all in a single visit before the heating season.

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.
Most Parma homes were built in the 1950s and '60s, which means their masonry chimneys are now 60–70 years old. At that age, cracked crowns, open mortar joints, and deteriorating clay flue liners are common. An inspection tells you exactly where yours stands.
Yes. Clay tile liners are standard in mid-century Parma homes. We sweep them, inspect each tile for cracks and gaps with a camera when needed, and recommend relining only if the liner is actually compromised.
Absolutely. We tuck point and rebuild brick on porches, steps, and exterior walls throughout Parma — the same freeze-thaw damage that cracks chimneys shows up in the brick all over these mid-century homes.
