Andrew & Sons Chimney was founded by Andrew Kowalski after more than a decade working for regional chimney companies across Fairfield County. Andrew grew frustrated watching homeowners — many of them in Newtown and the surrounding Sandy Hook and Hawleyville neighborhoods — being handed inflated repair quotes and vague verbal assessments with no way to compare or push back. He launched Andrew & Sons on a simple counter-promise: every customer gets a written quote, documented findings, and a final invoice that matches what was agreed. That commitment hasn't changed since day one.
The 'Sons' in our name are real — Andrew's two sons, Marcus and Derek, joined the business after completing their own CSIA-aligned training and apprenticeships. Together the team brings decades of combined field experience covering everything from historic colonial fireplaces to modern gas insert liners in new construction. We invest in ongoing education and updated equipment — including high-definition flue cameras and HEPA vacuum systems — because quality tools lead to accurate diagnoses and cleaner results for Newtown homeowners.
We're a small company by choice. Staying small means Andrew or one of his sons is on nearly every job, not a rotating cast of subcontractors. It means your questions get answered by someone who actually looked at your chimney, not routed through a call center. And it means we can stand behind every piece of work with genuine accountability. When you call (475) 277-8899, you reach people who live and work in this community, care about their reputation in it, and intend to be here for the long haul.
