Coastal weather is hard on chimneys. Wind-driven rain, salt air, and freeze-thaw cycles attack mortar joints, crowns, and flashing until leaks and loose brick appear. Steve Smith Masonry repairs and rebuilds chimneys across Newport and Lincoln County, restoring both safety and appearance.
Whether your chimney needs a few joints repointed, a new crown, fresh flashing, or a full rebuild from the roofline up, we diagnose the real problem and fix it to last. We match brick and mortar carefully so a repair blends in rather than standing out.

We identify the source of leaks or damage — crown, flashing, mortar, or brick — before quoting the right fix.
From repointing joints to rebuilding above the roofline, we do only the work your chimney actually needs.
We replace failed flashing and crowns — the most common entry points for water — to stop leaks for good.
We finish with weatherproofing suited to coastal exposure so repairs hold through Oregon winters.
Most chimney leaks aren't the brick — they're failed flashing and crumbling mortar. We replace step and counter flashing, rebuild cracked crowns, and tuckpoint deteriorated joints so water stays out and your chimney stops shedding debris into the firebox.
When damage runs deeper, a partial or full rebuild restores structure and safety. We carefully match existing brick and mortar color, so a rebuilt chimney in Depoe Bay or Waldport looks original — not patched.

Signs like crumbling mortar, spalling brick, a cracked crown, or interior leaks often mean repair; leaning, large cracks, or extensive damage above the roofline may call for a rebuild. We inspect and recommend only what's needed.
Nine times out of ten it's failed flashing or a cracked crown, not the brick itself. We pinpoint the source, replace flashing or rebuild the crown, and seal it so the leak stops.
Yes. Matching brick and mortar color is part of good chimney work. With 25+ years of local experience we blend repairs so they disappear into the original masonry.
