Andrew & Sons Chimney started the way most good family businesses do — out of necessity and a refusal to cut corners. Andrew grew up watching North Shore homeowners get overwhelmed by confusing chimney repair estimates and fly-by-night contractors who disappeared after taking a deposit. He trained as a CSIA-certified chimney sweep, spent years working for larger companies learning every system and material type in the region, and eventually launched his own operation right here in Lynn. The business is built on a straightforward promise: treat every customer the way you'd want your own family treated. That means honest inspections, fair pricing, and work that's done right the first time.
Our team serves Lynn and the surrounding North Shore communities from Swampscott to Salem to Peabody, and we've developed a deep familiarity with the housing stock in this area. Lynn has an extraordinary variety of home styles — Federal-period brick colonials on the high streets, post-war Cape Cods in the neighborhoods near Lynn Woods, and triple-deckers throughout the city's residential blocks. Each style presents its own chimney challenges, from aging clay flue tiles in 19th-century homes to improperly modified prefab units in remodeled condos. We've seen it all, and that experience means faster, more accurate diagnoses for you. We're not guessing — we're pattern-matching against hundreds of local chimneys we've worked on.
We're particularly proud of the relationship we've built with first-time homeowners in Lynn. Buying your first home is one of the biggest decisions of your life, and arriving at the closing table not knowing whether your fireplace is safe or a liability is stressful. We work closely with buyers, real estate agents, and home inspectors to provide Level 2 chimney inspections that give everyone at the table clear, documented information. Beyond that first inspection, we aim to be your go-to resource for chimney questions for as long as you own the home. Call (857) 770-0587 any time — if we can answer your question over the phone and save you a service call, we will. That's the Andrew & Sons way.
