Call (516) 927-2678

This page is for homeowners in New Rochelle, Larchmont, Pelham, and surrounding areas who have an Olympia Chimney liner, cap, crown, or damper showing wear, and who want a technician who knows the difference between an Olympia 316Ti flex liner and a knockoff before he climbs the ladder. If that sounds like your situation, call (516) 927-2678. A live person answers, 24 hours a day.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Olympia 316Ti Stainless Flex Liners - creosote buildup at the tee connection. The 316Ti alloy handles most New Rochelle burn temperatures well, but the tee body where the liner meets the thimble is a creosote magnet, especially in homes near Long Island Sound where prevailing winds create slight downdraft pressure. We pull the tee, inspect the collar weld for fatigue cracking (a known weak point on pre-2019 production runs), and replace with an Olympia OEM tee or a DuraFlex equivalent if the homeowner prefers. Camera inspection before and after, photos included.
• Olympia Gelco-Compatible Caps - lid separation from the mesh screen. Olympia’s caps that mate with Gelco base rings see screen weld failures after fifteen to twenty years of freeze-thaw cycling. New Rochelle’s coastal humidity accelerates the corrosion at the joint. We don’t just re-weld; we assess whether the base ring is still square and replace the full assembly if it’s warped. Done right - and we stand behind it.
• Olympia Cast-In-Place Crown Forms - hairline cracking at the flue penetration. The cast-in-place system saves labor on new construction, but the thermal expansion differential between the Olympia form and the clay flue tile eventually opens a gap. We’ve repaired dozens of these in Beechmont and Wykagyl neighborhoods where the original builder used this system in the 1990s. We grind out the crack, apply HeatShield CrownSeal in lifts, and match the slope to original spec so water runs off, not in.
• Olympia Top-Sealing Dampers - cable seizure from salt air exposure. The stainless cable on Olympia top-sealing dampers corrodes internally where it passes through the chimney cap guide. Homeowners notice the handle won’t open or the damper plate hangs crooked. We replace the cable with a marine-grade equivalent, lubricate the guide with high-temp graphite (never WD-40, which gums up), and test the seal with a smoke pencil. Russell Haines has found these seized solid in homes three blocks from the water - the salt fog gets everywhere.
• Olympia HeatShield-Compatible Flue Relining - delamination at the smoke shelf. When an Olympia liner is paired with HeatShield cerfractory resurfacing, the smoke shelf junction is the stress point. Incomplete original application or moisture intrusion from a missing rain cap causes the HeatShield to spall. We camera-inspect to confirm delamination depth, remove loose material with pneumatic tools, and reapply to HeatShield’s specified thickness. No guesswork on coverage; we measure and document.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Process

1. 1
   Call and schedule. A live person answers at (516) 927-2678, any hour. We ask what you’re seeing, what you’re burning, and when you first noticed it. Russell’s phrase: “Tell me what’s burning, and I’ll tell you what’s wrong.”
2. 2
   Level-2 camera inspection on arrival. Our technician documents the full flue, smoke chamber, and exterior with photos you can see on the tablet. Plain-English verdict: what’s wrong, what can wait, and what was never a problem.
3. 3
   Parts decision with you. If Olympia OEM is available and cost-effective, we quote it. If a DuraFlex, HeatShield, or Gelco equivalent meets or exceeds spec at better value, we explain the trade-off. No surprises on the bill - the estimate number is the invoice number.
4. 4
   The repair. Background-checked, uniformed technician; drop cloths; most jobs completed in a single visit. We don’t subcontract your chimney to a stranger.
5. 5
   Post-repair test and documentation. Smoke test or draft test as appropriate; final photos; written 90-Day Done Right Promise with no paperwork to chase down. If it’s not right, we come back. In writing, no arguing.
6. 6
   Cleanup and walkthrough. We show you what was done, where the photos are saved, and what to watch for. Then we make sure the coffee’s still hot before we leave - Russell insists on that part.
