We Help Your Family Stay Cozy And Warm.

Chimney And Fireplace Service For Homes in The Greater-Indianapolis Area

We know what it’s like to have a major issue in your home and know where to start.

As chimneys get older, big problem can start to occur:

  • Masonry breaks down
  • Flashing leaks
  • Mold grows
  • Freeze/thaw cycles accelerate the aging process
That’s why, over the last 12 years, we’ve helped over 4,000 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 needed Smalling as a result of a chimney fire, not by choice, so we didn’t know what we needed or how we needed it. Choices were few and far between that didn’t require big floor plan changes. They walked us through the process and removed and replaced our old fireplace with a new, unique, heat-efficient, double-sided hybrid wood stove/fireplace that happened to fit our space with minimal structural change! The project came with more than a couple challenges, but with each one Jake and the guys at Smalling worked through them, completing it beautifully. Bill and Jorge were excellent with installation, knowing pretty much everything about everything and easing our minds all along the way- they are true professionals in their field. We would welcome them back to our home, and we would absolutely recommend Smalling Masonry to others.

We had a new 5 sided masonry chimney cap, some tuck pointing, and weather sealing work on one chimney and crown coating, tuck pointing and other weather sealing work on our other chimney. From Steve who came out to review the project and quote us prices to Storm and Tom who came out and did the work the Smalling Masonry team was great. Steve reviewed some different options and pricing and Storm and Tom were professional and informative throughout the 2 day project. They walked me through the planned work prior and then the completed work. Thanks for a great job!

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.

Over 4,000 families have trusted Smalling Masonry

to service their fireplace because…

  • We Do It All

From start to finish, we can complete your entire fireplace and chimney project. We’ll start with an inspection and sweeping, make our recommendations for further maintenance and repairs, then get your system back in tip-top shape and running right. And if you need installation services, we can handle that too.

  • We Invest in Continuing Education

This is an industry that’s ever-evolving and improving, which is why we take our education seriously, always staying up-to-date and in-the-know. Every one of our lead technicians and consultants are certified in their specialty, and any crew members that aren’t certified are working on the process.

  • We Have a Proven Process

We have specific guidelines and processes that ensure our jobs are done fully, accurately, and completely. This ensures everything runs as smoothly and efficiently as possible during each service, so you can rest easier leaving your home in our hands.

  • We Don’t Leave Until It’s Right

Our company founder, Gary Smalling, is a highly skilled mason who has a passion for restoring, repairing, and maintaining chimneys and fireplace. We know that fireplaces aren’t just about looks. They provide a valuable asset and focal point to your home that brings comfort and joy for years to come.

  • We Offer In-Depth Reports

Our inspections come with complete and itemized reports, each of which includes pictures, details of findings, and any coding requirements. We’ll work with you to explain our findings and answer any questions so that you’re well-informed and know what to expect moving forward.

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 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
