The Details Behind a Rebuilt Chimney That Lasts
Every rebuilt chimney carries our workmanship warranty and a clear record of what was done.
Finding the line where sound masonry begins
Every rebuild starts with one decision: how far down the chimney has to come. The answer is the point where the brick is sound, the joints are hard and the courses are still tied into one another.
That line is found by inspection, not by picking a convenient course. Sometimes it moves lower once the top courses are off and the brick beneath can be seen properly.
Our estimate marks the proposed line and says what happens if the brick below proves weaker than expected, so a change is agreed with you rather than added quietly.
Rebuilding the section above the roof
The part of the chimney above the roof is usually the first candidate for rebuilding because it has no shelter at all. Taking it down to the roofline, or a few courses below it, often reaches sound masonry.
The rebuilt section then meets the roof at the flashing, which has to be renewed with it. A rebuild that stops above the roofline still needs its flashing checked where old and new brick meet.
Our crew plans roof protection and the flashing tie-in as part of every rebuild above the roofline.
Permits for chimney rebuilding
The Florida Building Code requires anyone who intends to construct, alter, repair or demolish a regulated building or structure to obtain the required permit from the building official first. The code also lists work that is exempt.
Rebuilding a chimney is structural masonry work, so whether and how that rule applies is settled with the building department for your address before the rebuild starts. Where a permit applies, inspections by the building department become part of the schedule as well.
Our crew tells you what applies to your job and builds the timing into the schedule.
Rebuilding a chimney after storm damage
Wind can pull the top off a weak chimney, and a fallen limb can crack a stack. What looks like a few missing bricks can hide loosened courses further down.
The first step is making the chimney safe, removing loose brick and covering the flue opening against rain. The rebuild follows once the damage has been assessed. Pieces that have already fallen are left where they lie until the area is safe to reach.
We set out what was damaged, what must be rebuilt and what can be repaired, in writing.
