We know what it’s like to have a major issue in your home and not know where to start.
As chimneys get older, big problems can start to occur:
And the Indiana Freeze/Thaw cycle accelerates all of this aging process
That’s why, over the last 14 years, we’ve helped over 6,000 families with their chimneys. Our lead technicians are CSIA-, NFI-, or NCSG- certified; our owner has served on the National Chimney Sweep Guild board; we leave our jobs cleaner than when we arrived; we have over 300 Google reviews; and we invest in programs to help our local community and veterans. We can help you too.

We’re Home to Indiana’s First Certified Journeyman Chimney Technician
Smalling Masonry is proud to announce that our very own Caleb Burgess has become Indiana’s first Certified Journeyman Chimney Technician!
As the first company in Indiana to implement this program, we are leading the way in training the next generation of highly skilled chimney professionals.
This new apprenticeship program was designed by the National Chimney Sweep Guild (NCSG), approved by the U.S. Department of Labor, and highlights the importance of always staying educated and invested in this industry’s ever-evolving changes and developments. The course is a two-year process that combines hands-on training, classroom development, and virtual instruction to ensure sweeps are up-to-date on industry advancements.
Caleb is the first Smalling Masonry team member to gain this credential, but certainly not the last, as we have more apprentices already in training. Thanks for letting us serve you – we can’t wait to continue to prove our commitment to keeping Indianapolis homes the best they can be.

I used Smalling Masonry to inspect and make needed repairs on the chimney and refacing the interior fireplace with stone plus installing an electric fireplace insert. We moved away from the wood-burning fireplace. From start to finish the service is what you’d expect when trusting a contractor to do work on your home. Jacob was so helpful and patient with me during the estimate process, even when I made changes. The install took the 3 days they estimated, with much fewer hours on day 2 & 3! I can’t say enough good things about the Lead Tech (Carl) and Crew (Quint). Great teamwork, punctual, professional, great communication about the job progress, and a clean worksite. Thank you Smalling Masonry.

Save Money & Skip the Line With an Annual Maintenance Plan
With our maintenance plans, we will proactively schedule a check-up each year. This includes an inspection and, if needed, a sweeping. According to the NFPA, every fireplace should be inspected annually to ensure that your system is functioning properly and is suitable for your families use.
We will look for any gaps or cracks that could leak fumes or gases into the home or anything that would be an increased fire risk. We will also check the structure of your chimney and look for any potential points of moisture entry. If your system happens to be new or new products have been used for repair, then our maintenance will also ensure your system is in full compliance with manufacturer warranties.
Additional benefits of our maintenance plans include:
- 15% discount off our regular sweep/inspection price
- Locked-in low annual price
- No price increase on your sweep/inspection
- Appointment reminders two weeks in advance
