The family chimney company for North Bay Village

Rebuilding a chimney is a decision our family team in North Bay Village helps you make only when repair has stopped being the sensible choice. We are locally owned, and a rebuild is the largest chimney job we quote, so we explain it slowly and in writing. The free inspection looks at how far the damage runs, whether courses near the top have loosened or shifted and whether the chimney leans.

A few loose bricks can usually be reset. A section that moves when pressed, or has lost its mortar through its full depth, may not hold another repair. The Brick Industry Association's guidance on residential chimneys covers how the masonry, the flue liner and the top should work together. A rebuilt section is built to the current Florida Building Code.

That means a proper flue liner, a sloped top with a drip edge and the height the code requires above the roof. That can change how the finished chimney looks, and we show you before you decide. Your written estimate names how far down the rebuild goes, what brick or finish will be used and how the roof around it is protected.

Rebuild work, or any other job on the estimate, comes to 10% off when you sign off on it inside 72 hours of your free inspection. A rebuild takes more than a day, and we cover the open chimney before leaving each evening until it is finished. Tell us about roof coverings that need care, landscaping below the chimney and where materials can be set down.

If a roofer will need to repair the roof around the new section, we explain the order of work and who does what. Our work in North Bay Village also covers crowns, caps, flashing, liners, sweeping and fireplace service for wood, gas and electric units. Debris is hauled away as the job goes, and the finished chimney comes with our workmanship warranty and a written record naming each material used.
