Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Nationwide

Every visit starts with

Level 1 sweep and inspection to the NFPA 211 annual standard - flue, crown, cap, and flashing checked and photographed

Worth knowing

Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.

How Olympia Chimney Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

Olympia Chimney builds solid stainless steel liners and caps, but Fairfield County’s freeze-thaw cycles and the wet springs along the Still River watershed expose specific weak points we’ve tracked across hundreds of Danbury jobs. Here’s what we see:

  • Olympia 316Ti flexible liner sleeves: The titanium-stabilized alloy resists corrosion, but we’ve found the seam welds on early production runs (roughly 2012-2017) can work loose where the liner flexes around an offset in older Danbury chimneys, especially the 90-degree turns common in Colonial Revival homes near Lake Kenosia. We camera-inspect the full length, mark the seam separation, and install a factory-sleeved splice or full replacement using current-spec Olympia material or DuraFlex equivalent - whichever matches the flue diameter and draft requirements.
  • Olympia Gelco-style cap mesh: The 304 stainless mesh on Olympia’s standard cap line corrodes faster than the frame when leaf litter and squirrel nesting material pack against it, a chronic issue under Danbury’s heavy oak canopy. We replace with upgraded 316L mesh or spec a Gelco cap with wider overhang if the crown is deteriorating underneath.
  • Olympia round clay-to-metal adapter plates: These transition fittings crack at the bolt holes after 8-12 years of thermal cycling, particularly in fireplaces that see weekend-only use. The thermal shock is worse than daily fires. We fabricate a reinforced adapter or source the current Olympia part, depending on flue configuration.
  • Olympia poured refractory smoke chamber systems: When paired with HeatShield parging in retrofits, we’ve seen corner delamination where the Olympia sleeve meets a parged smoke chamber in homes with exterior chimneys on north-facing walls - the coldest exposure in Danbury’s winter. We remove the failed refractory, re-parge with HeatShield to current spec, and reinstall with an expansion gap detail most crews skip.
  • Olympia chase cover replacements on prefab chimneys: The stamped steel original equipment rusts through at the diverter ridges within 10-15 years, accelerated by Danbury’s road salt aerosol in winter. We measure on-site and fabricate a custom Copperfield chase cover in 24-gauge galvanized or copper, with cross-break diverter and drip edge, sized to the Olympia chase exactly.

Our Olympia Chimney Chimney Repair Process

  1. 1
    Call and schedule: A live person answers, 24/7. We ask what you’re seeing - smoke smell, water stain, crumbling brick, draft problem - and book a Level-2 camera inspection.
  2. 2
    On-site diagnosis: Our technician arrives in uniform, background-checked, with the camera rig and Olympus-specific reference specs. We photograph every defect and show you the footage. “Tell me what you’re seeing, and I’ll tell you what it actually means.”
  3. 3
    Plain-English verdict and pricing: We explain the repair, show you OEM versus quality aftermarket options (DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, or current Olympia parts), and give one upfront price. The number on the estimate is the number on the invoice.
  4. 4
    The repair: Most jobs complete in a single visit. For rebuilds or liner replacements requiring staging, we schedule consecutive days and protect your property throughout.
  5. 5
    Testing and documentation: We run a final camera pass, verify draft and clearance, and leave you with photos, the written verdict, and our 90-Day Done Right Promise - in writing, no arguing.
  6. 6
    Cleanup and follow-up: We haul away debris, sweep the work area, and Russell Haines reviews every job file personally before the invoice goes out.
