Bothell's chimneys split by neighborhood. Most of the city, including Canyon Park, North Creek and the Bothell East and Bothell West areas across the Snohomish County line, was built in the 1980s through the 2000s, with a median build year of 1992, and those subdivisions use factory-built fireplaces in framed chases. Repairs there are chase covers, termination caps, refractory panels, rotted chase trim and the flashing where the chase meets the roof. The small historic downtown along Main Street and the older homes around it have brick chimneys, and those need tuckpointing, crown rebuilds, caps and flashing work. We do both, and we'll tell you straight which kind you have.
We don't care which side of the county line you're on; Bothell is about 35 minutes from our Renton office either way, and same-day service is often available. The quote is free, a second-opinion quote on someone else's estimate is free, and we price match plus 10–25% off. Specials: chase covers starting at $299, chase rebuilds starting at $299, crown rebuilds starting at $299. If you're not happy, we're not done.

Bothell Conditions
Why this happens in Bothell
Bothell's subdivisions were largely built out in one stretch, so their chimney parts age together: a generation of galvanized chase covers and caps installed in the 1980s and 90s is typically reaching the end of its life at the same time. Weather sets the pace. Sea-Tac's normals show 40.34 inches of rain a year with roughly 73% of it October through March, and a chase that stays wet for six months rusts its cover and rots its trim. Canyon Park and North Creek sit among tall timber, and chases on the shaded side of a house dry slowly; Pacific Northwest moss spreads fastest October through April on exactly those surfaces.
The brick chimneys downtown face the region's freeze-thaw pattern instead, with winter lows averaging about 37°F and around 60 days a year touching 32°F, which brick industry guidance links to cracked crowns and spalled brick. Both types typically show their first symptoms in the wettest month, November, at 6.31 inches.
How It Works
Our chimney repair process
Free quote visit
We inspect the chimney top to bottom, photograph what we find, and hand you a written quote. If you have another company's quote, we review it with you.
Diagnose the entry point
We identify which component is actually letting water, smoke, or heat through, instead of replacing parts on guesswork.
Repair in the right order
Top components come first so the structure dries out, then masonry, then the firebox.
Same-day work when possible
Many crown, cap, cover, and flashing repairs are done on the first visit. Masonry and chase rebuilds are scheduled for a dry window.
Walk-through and guarantee
We show you photos of the finished work. If you are not happy, we are not done, and we re-do it at no charge.

Chimney Repair in Bothell — FAQ
Does it matter that my Bothell house is in Snohomish County, not King?
Not to us. We serve all of Bothell, including the North Creek and Bothell East and West areas on the Snohomish side, from our Renton office. The drive is about 35 minutes either way, same-day service is often available, and pricing is the same: free quote, price match plus 10–25% off. Call 206-453-2045 and tell us what's wrong.
The builder of our Canyon Park home is long gone. Can you repair the original fireplace?
Yes. Factory-built fireplaces from the 1980s and 90s are still serviceable: we replace rusted chase covers and caps, cracked refractory panels, damaged chase siding and trim, and failed flashing. If a part for a specific unit is no longer made, we tell you the options before any work starts. The quote is free.
How soon can you do chimney repair in Bothell?
We confirm a time by phone or text after you request a quote; same-day service is often available for urgent problems in Bothell and the rest of King County.
