What Goes Into a Chimney Repair That Lasts
Every repair we make in Davis Islands is explained first and backed by our workmanship warranty.
Caps, screens and the open top of a flue
An open flue takes in rain, leaves and animals. A cap with a screen keeps most of that out, and Florida's code sets a minimum opening for a spark arrestor screen so it does not choke the draft, requiring its net free area to be four or more times the flue outlet's area.
Bent, rusted or undersized caps turn up often during repair visits. Our pros measure each flue before recommending a replacement, and a cap for your Davis Islands chimney booked within 72 hours of the inspection is 10% off.
Repairs where the chimney meets wood framing
Inside the house, a masonry chimney needs space from wood. Florida's residential code requires a 2-inch airspace between the interior parts of a masonry chimney and combustible framing, plus fireblocking with noncombustible material where the chimney passes through floors and ceilings.
When a repair opens walls or ceilings near the chimney, or a leak has damaged framing, those clearances are checked before anything is closed up. We tell you what we found and which trade should handle the finish work in your Davis Islands home.
Materials chosen for the part being repaired
Different parts of a chimney need different materials. Joints get mortar selected under ASTM C270 to suit the brick, the firebox takes refractory mortar, the crown is formed in concrete with a drip edge, and flashing works best in metal that resists corrosion, which is why brick industry guidance does not recommend galvanized flashing.
We tell you which materials are proposed for your chimney and why. Our specialists do not use one product everywhere, and the proposal for your Davis Islands home names each one.
Repairs on a chimney you never use
A chimney you never use still stands in the weather. Rain gets in through a cracked top or loose flashing whether or not there is ever a fire, and water damage inside the walls does not wait for the fireplace to be lit.
Keeping an unused chimney sound usually comes down to a good top, tight flashing and solid joints. Our specialists explain those repairs for Davis Islands homes.
