Chimney Repair From Local Specialists
Any repair is 10% off when approved no later than 72 hours after your free inspection. Below is how our specialists work on chimneys in Harbour Island.
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 Harbour Island chimney booked within 72 hours of the inspection is 10% off.
Water repellent is the last step, not the first
Clear water repellents have a place on some chimneys, but not as a cover for open joints or a cracked crown. The Brick Industry Association suggests letting several months pass after repair work before choosing a repellent at all, and cautions that coatings which form a film can slow drying and cause trouble while water is still getting in.
We repair first and talk about repellent later, if it is needed at all. That order lets your Harbour Island chimney dry out and means you only pay for a coating when it actually helps.
Chimney and roof repair on the same schedule
A roof replacement is a good time to deal with chimney flashing, because the shingles around the stack are already open. If your roofer is booked, tell us the dates and which surfaces will come off, so the chimney work and the new roof are sequenced instead of patched together later.
We agree with you, and with your roofer if you like, who handles each part of the joint. Our family-owned team works around your schedule in Harbour Island, and nothing is assumed to be part of another contractor's job.
The cleanout door at the base of the chimney
Many masonry chimneys have a cleanout opening near the base of the flue, and Florida's code requires one with a noncombustible cover unless the flue can be cleaned through the fireplace opening. A missing, rusted or loose door lets air, water and pests into the bottom of the chimney.
Replacing the door and repairing the masonry around it is a small job that is easy to add to a larger repair. Our pros check it during the free inspection in Harbour Island.
