Boiler Flues, Stucco Chimneys& Marble StepsFor Tuckahoe, Bronxville, Eastchester, Crestwood and Scarsdale

Tuckahoe's name is tied to marble: quarries along what is now Marbledale Road shipped stone to New York City in the 1800s. Today the village and its neighbors are a mix of pre-war co-op buildings near the Metro-North stations and stucco-and-timber houses on the curving streets of Bronxville and Lawrence Park. We service the chimneys that heat them and repair the brick, stone and marble around their entrances, from a shop on the road named for those quarries. Calls are taken 24/7.

Co-ops, condos & apartment buildings

Boiler chimneys for multi-family buildings

The brick apartment buildings around Tuckahoe, Bronxville and Crestwood stations mostly date from the 1920s and '30s. Their tall chimneys vent central boilers, many converted from oil to gas. That change can leave an old flue the wrong size or eaten away by condensation.

SUPER

Start with the super

We meet the superintendent in the boiler room and get roof access arranged through the managing agent.

SCAN

Camera the flue

Video from the breeching to the roof shows cracked tile, debris and any condensation damage.

BOARD

A proposal the board can vote on

Findings, photos and options in a document you can circulate before the meeting.

RELINE

Line it, sized right

Stainless liners matched to the boiler's output, with notice to residents before work starts.

Stucco-covered chimneys

Hidden water

Hairline cracks let rain behind the stucco, where it freezes and pops it off the brick in sheets.

Proper layers

Scratch, brown and finish coats rebuilt rather than a single skim that cracks by spring.

Texture matched

Float, dash or troweled finish copied from your house so the patch disappears once painted.

Village rules respected

Some streets fall under design review. We supply photos and specs when your village asks.

Common questions

Asked by Tuckahoe neighbors

Something else? Dispatch is at (914) 335-8635 at any hour.

Is someone really there overnight?

Yes, a live dispatcher handles calls through the night and on holidays. A building with no heat because of a blocked boiler flue, chunks of stucco on the sidewalk or rain pouring past the chimney get a crew lined up. With smoke, the smell of gas or a beeping CO detector, step outside and call 911 first.

Our building switched from oil to gas. Does the chimney need a liner?

Often yes. Gas exhaust is cooler and wetter than oil, and an oversized old flue lets it condense and eat the mortar. We size a liner to the new boiler.

Can you work with our managing agent and board?

Yes. We coordinate access through the agent and super, and provide written proposals and certificates of insurance for the board.

Why does stucco keep falling off our chimney?

Water is getting behind it, usually through cracks, a failed crown or missing flashing. We fix the entry point and rebuild the coats properly.

Can a cracked marble step be repaired?

Small chips and cracks can be pinned and filled to match. Badly broken treads are replaced with marble or bluestone cut to size.

Do you handle bluestone and brick too?

Yes, along with brownstone and granite sills found on older Westchester homes.

Where do you work?

Tuckahoe, Bronxville, Eastchester, Crestwood, Scarsdale, Mount Vernon, Pelham, New Rochelle, Yonkers, Hartsdale, White Plains and Larchmont.

Marble, bluestone & brick

Entrances in a marble town

Older homes and apartment lobbies around here often have marble or bluestone steps, sills and thresholds. Marble is soft, so de-icers, settling and a century of foot traffic wear it down, crack it and loosen it.

Loose or rocking treads

Lifted, re-bedded and leveled so the step stops moving underfoot.

Cracked sills

Window and door sills pinned and patched or replaced to keep water out of the wall.

Salt-safe advice

Which de-icers etch marble and which don't, so the repair lasts more than one winter.

Lobby entries

Apartment entrances repaired in sections so residents always have a way in.
