Top-Rated Chimney Installation in Manchester, CT — Built to Last
A properly installed chimney isn’t just a home feature — it’s a cornerstone of safety, comfort, and performance. At GMT Home Services, our Manchester chimney specialists combine hands-on local experience with high-grade materials to ensure every chimney we build is watertight, efficient, and built to withstand years of heavy rainfall and winter freeze.
Why Chimney Installation Matters for Manchester Homes
In Manchester’s damp, cool climate, a well-installed chimney plays a vital role in home safety and energy efficiency. Poor installations can lead to leaks, smoke backdrafts, and even carbon monoxide exposure. Our certified installers ensure every chimney is designed to perform safely and efficiently — no shortcuts, no guesswork.
Proper chimney installation ensures:
- Safe venting of smoke and carbon monoxide
- Strong waterproofing to handle Manchester’s heavy rain
- Long-lasting masonry that resists cracking and spalling
When installed right, your chimney protects your family, your investment, and your peace of mind.
Designed for Manchester’s Wet Weather
Manchester’s reputation for rain makes waterproofing a top priority. Our chimney installations include watertight flashing, durable crowns, and stainless-steel caps designed to keep rain and debris out. We use only moisture-resistant mortar and sealants that protect against leaks, mold, and frost damage — because prevention always costs less than repair.
Our Step-by-Step Chimney Installation Process
Step 1: On-Site Consultation & Assessment
Every home is unique. We start with a free inspection to evaluate your roof structure, appliance type, and venting needs, ensuring your new chimney meets both safety codes and Manchester building regulations.
Step 2: Chimney Cap & Weatherproofing Setup
We install high-quality chimney caps and crowns to block rain, snow, and nesting animals while maintaining proper airflow. Custom flashing and sealant ensure your roofline stays leak-free.
Step 3: Chimney Liner Installation
Safety begins with the liner. Depending on your system, we offer stainless steel, cast-in-place, or clay tile liners — all designed to prevent heat and gas leaks while improving efficiency.
Step 4: Full Chimney Construction or Rebuild
From modern designs to heritage restorations, our masons handle every build with precision. We match brick and mortar tones for aesthetic consistency while reinforcing the structure for decades of durability.
Step 5: Final Testing & Clean-Up
Once complete, our team conducts full draft and smoke tests, inspects airflow, and ensures code compliance. We leave your property spotless and ready for use — no mess, no stress.
Built for Safety, Efficiency, and Longevity
A GMT-installed chimney doesn’t just meet code — it exceeds expectations. By combining reinforced masonry, weatherproof sealing, and proper flue sizing, we create chimneys that burn cleaner, last longer, and require minimal maintenance. That means lower heating costs and fewer repairs over time.

What Our Manchester Neighbour Are Saying About Our Services
EXCELLENT Based on 356 reviews Posted on Daniel JacobTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. GMT Chimney Services did an outstanding job installing a new liner in my chimney. Their price was nearly half of what other companies quoted, and the work was excellent. My chimney wasn’t drafting correctly, which caused my water heater to break. After the liner was installed, the issue was completely resolved. Highly recommend for their fantastic work!Posted on Gary SandersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding service with Joe he was very helpful and I would recommend gmt and JoePosted on Kevin HealyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Joe work on a gas fireplace in our new home. He was prompt, polite, and a pleasure to deal with. I would absolutely use this company again and felt he went above and beyond to assist usPosted on josh aTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 3.5 stars Not the worst not the best experience.. the guys that came and did inspection were great and knowledgeable, the guys that came and did the liner were also great.. Juan that came to check out my fireplace and put on the caps was excellent.. the guys that came and did the pointing, and outside work did ok work but didnt communicate with us... never rang doorbells or gave us calls, not good communication.... this comapny expect you to be home almost at all times says they will work with you in times so, scheduled a day to come work and needed someone to be home wife took day off and they tried to tell us no one was home didn't even knock or ring door bell... just left tried to tell us no one was home and that they rang door bell and knocked.. we have cameras and ring door bell and wife took day off.. one week goes by no calls nothing gave us 30 min notice called abut 9a.m to show up around 930... again the workers were all pretty good but the communication between them the lady in the office and home owners should be better.. she Called and asked for payment job wasn't complete.. caps were not install.. Juan came out again was great did what he had to do and bill was paid.. I'd love to use them again for a cleaning because the work was ok and some of the guys doing the work. But they need to realize that people work for a living and cant be home at all times and some of the workers and the office need to be able to communicate with the home owners and possibly each other a bit better.. the pricing was average better then some others and work was overall ok.. if your someone that can be home often this company will be perfect for youPosted on MariaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Nice workPosted on Ravi GopieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joe came to check my fireplace since I wanted to make sure I was good for the season before lighting it. He did a wonderful job of explaining that the fireplace was safe to use this year and advised me of when to contact them for a cleaning. He checked the firebox, and explained what was happening in the flue. I will certainly be calling GMT again for my future cleanings because of this interaction. Joe was friendly and warm, and did a great job explaining how to use the fireplace.Posted on אילן חרוביTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service!
