Canton Leaning Chimney Repair
A leaning or tilting chimney in Canton isn’t just a cosmetic concern — it’s a serious structural hazard that can put your family, home, and property at risk. At Anglin’s Foundation & Masonry Repairs, we’ve been trusted for over 95 years to safely straighten, stabilize, and restore leaning chimneys throughout Metro Atlanta. With thousands of successful projects completed, we’re the go-to experts for chimney repair in Canton.
Why Chimneys Lean in Canton
Much like the rest of Georgia, Canton homes are often built on clay-rich soils that expand and contract with changes in moisture. Over time, this soil movement can cause the concrete footing beneath your chimney to shift, sink, or settle unevenly. Since a chimney is a rigid, heavy masonry structure, footing issues often lead to tilting, cracking, or separation from your home.
Common warning signs of a leaning chimney include:
- A visible gap between the chimney and home
- Cracks forming at the chimney’s base
- Loose or falling bricks and mortar
- A visibly tilted chimney, leaning several inches or more
If ignored, a leaning chimney can eventually collapse, leading to costly damage and potential safety hazards.
Our Chimney Repair Process
At Anglin’s, every leaning chimney repair starts with a no-obligation inspection to uncover both the tilt and its root cause. We stabilize the footing with piers or reinforced concrete, then carefully lift the chimney back into proper alignment. Our masons repair cracks, restore mortar, and, if needed, secure the structure with anchors. To protect against future issues, we may also recommend drainage improvements or waterproofing. Most repairs are completed without disturbing your landscaping, leaving your home safer and your property intact.

Mike Arnold2025-07-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an out building that sank a good 6” on one side. Anglin’s crew responded and quickly demonstrated to me that they knew what they were doing. They installed 4 piers and Iggy took the hydraulic controls and gently lifted to foundation back to level with no cracks in the concrete floor. Could not be more pleased.

Anglin Foundation and Brick Repair is an excellent, experienced and reliable company. I have used them on two separate occasions 8 years apart. They do a professional and honest assessment of the work that is needed and deliver on what is promised. The crew today, led by Junior, was on time, polite, and focused. They left the front corner of the house where the pier needed to be dug and placed spotless when there were done! Frankly incredible. ralphm2025-06-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Junior & crew did an excellent job. Work was done thoroughly and timely.
