Repairs, Preparation and Chimney Waterproofing
Before any product goes on, you hear what a water repellent can and cannot do.
Painted chimneys need a different conversation
Paint sits on the brick as a film. A breathable repellent cannot soak through it, and adding more layers can hold moisture in the masonry underneath. Peeling or bubbling paint on a chimney is often a sign that water is already trapped behind it.
Our specialists look at why the paint is failing before recommending anything. Sometimes the answer is repairs at the top or the roof line and a finish that breathes. We set out the options in writing, with the price for each, so you can choose.
The crown gets its own repair
The top of a masonry chimney takes more water than any brick face. For masonry chimneys, the residential volume of the Florida Building Code asks in section R1003.9.1 for a cap of concrete, metal or stone, edged with a drip and sealed to each flue liner by a caulked bond break.
A repellent on the vertical brick does nothing for a cracked or flat crown, and BIA notes that coatings cannot stop water that gets past an ineffective cap. Our pros check the crown on every waterproofing visit and price any crown repair as a separate line.
Protecting glass, roofing and plants
The chemicals in masonry coatings are strong. The Brick Industry Association warns that they can etch glass, damage paint and kill vegetation, and calls for protecting nearby surfaces from overspray.
Before the first coat, our team covers windows, skylights, painted trim and garden beds near the chimney, and keeps an eye on the wind. That preparation is included in the price we quote for your Temple Terrace home, and the site is cleaned up when the work is done.
What you have when the job is finished
When the chimney is treated, you should know exactly what was done. Our pros go over the repairs made, the product applied, the surfaces covered and any drying time or rain limits for the first days.
Keep that record with your home papers. It helps any future repair, and it tells the next person whether a new product will be compatible. The treatment is covered by our workmanship warranty, and our 100% satisfaction guarantee applies as well.
