Why Chimney Repair Matters in New Milford
Chimneys in New Milford face constant stress from heavy winter storms and seasonal moisture. Addressing issues early is critical for safety and long-term protection.
What Makes Chimney Repair Essential:
• Prevent Structural Damage: Cracks, loose bricks, and deteriorated mortar weaken the entire stack and surrounding framework.
• Avoid Moisture Problems: Damaged caps, crowns, or flashing allow water inside, leading to mold, rot, stains, and interior deterioration.
• Ensure Fire Safety: Compromised liners or creosote buildup significantly increase the risk of chimney fires.
• Improve Heating Efficiency: A properly repaired chimney drafts better, reduces smoke, and boosts fireplace performance.
• Preserve Home Value: A well-maintained chimney meets safety requirements and protects your property investment.

A Local New Milford Experience
One thing I’ve learned working on chimneys across New Milford—from homes near Candlewood Lake to older properties closer to the town center—is that every chimney tells its own story. I’ve seen minor cracks turn into major leaks after just one rough winter, and I’ve helped families who didn’t even realize their flashing was letting water run behind the wall for months. That’s why we go beyond surface fixes. We take the time to understand how your chimney is behaving, what weather exposure it suffers, and what future problems we can help you prevent before they become costly.

What Our New Milford 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!
