Newbury, Mass Job

Back in 2000  Supaflu was a vendor in the Boston Home Show at the Copley Center. It was their that a customer came by and spoke with me about a new chimney that was buily by a local mason. All 8 (eight) fireplaces smoked and didn't draw properly. He asked me to come by and to see if I could help him. Within 2 days we evaluated his fireplaces and the reasoning why they didn't work properly. I told him that we could bring all his fireplace back to a safe working condition. After the work was finished he was completely satisfied with his first chimney he had us come back the next year to restore the other fireplaces.

Spang Builders Job… Ocean Ave Kport

Supaflu was hired to restore a unused / unsafe fireplace. You will notice the two individual ( rectangular ) unlined flues. Each of the these flues handled a fireplace on the first floor and a coal insert. The first floor fireplace / flue wasn’t constructed properly way back in the day. The flue was way undersized and the fireplace smoked and was unusable. We meticulously remove the brick masonry separation walls between the two flues. We had to remove the bricks all the way down to the top of the smoke chamber. The result was a very large flue chase that allowed for us to cast a 11” round Supaflu liner. The result was a structurally sound chimney with a proper sized flue for the proper function and safe use of the fireplace. It’s jobs like this that set us apart from other masons that really no the proper design and functionality of the masonry chimneys.
