Chimney and fireplace company serving North Lauderdale

One phone call reaches a family-owned team that works on the whole fireplace system in North Lauderdale, from the hearth to the top of the chimney. We sweep flues, repair masonry and metal chimney parts, and service wood, gas and electric fireplaces. Because one team sees all of it, you do not need to decide in advance whether the problem belongs to the chimney or to the appliance.

Describe what you noticed and we sort it out at the visit. That visit is a free inspection. We look at the parts that can be reached safely, say which parts stay concealed and explain the findings in plain words. A free written estimate follows, with every item on its own line and its price stated upfront.

Once you have the findings, you have 72 hours from that inspection to approve work at 10% off. A chimney works as one assembly even though it is built from separate parts. The Florida Building Code's chimney chapter sets requirements for the flue lining, for the cap or crown at the top and for the masonry that surrounds them.

When one of those parts fails, the others take the strain. A crack at the top lets water into the brick below, and wet masonry wears faster than dry masonry. That is why we look past the part you called about before recommending anything. The repair you approve should deal with the cause as well as the symptom.

On a job that runs longer than a day, a cover goes over the open chimney before we leave each evening. The debris goes with us rather than staying beside the house. Once the job is done, a written record of what we did is yours to keep, and a workmanship warranty stands behind it.

Keep that record with the house papers. It gives the next visit a starting point, whether that visit is a repair, a sweep or one of our maintenance visits.
