Choosing replacement brick for a chimney

The flue behind the brick being replaced

Replacing a unit in a chimney is not the same as replacing one in a garden wall. Behind the outer brick is the flue, and some chimneys have little space between the two. The work is planned so the liner is not disturbed.

If the damage reaches deep into the wall or the liner shows through, we stop and explain. Any flue repair is a separate item with its own method. Keeping the two apart on the estimate shows clearly which part of the chimney each repair addresses.

Vines on a chimney and the brick beneath

Vines growing up a chimney can hold moisture against the brick and push into weak joints. The brick industry's maintenance note says to cut vines away from the wall, since pulling them off can damage the brickwork.

If vines cover damaged areas, they are cut back and the remaining growth is left to dry before it is brushed off. We can then see the brick underneath properly. Replacement units are set once the surface is clear, and we explain whether the growth has affected the joints.

Spalling brick repair for homes in Boulevard Park Isles

Spalling brick repair for homes in Boulevard Park Isles follows a set order. We look for the water that damaged the brick, map the units that need replacing, match the new brick and mortar, then replace each unit carefully. You see all of that before work begins.

When we finish, the damaged units are gone, the new brick sits in full, tooled joints and the debris has been hauled away. You keep a written record of every brick replaced, and any other repair is explained as its own item.

Spalling on a chimney that is no longer used

A chimney that is no longer used still stands in the weather. Its brick can spall, its crown can crack and water can reach ceilings and walls inside, whether or not anyone lights a fire.

Damage on an unused chimney also tends to go unnoticed for longer. A free inspection shows whether any bricks need replacing and what is letting water in. We explain the options plainly, including when monitoring is reasonable for now. Waiting too long can turn a few bricks into many.

Answers about chimney brick replacement

How do you match new brick to an older chimney?

We compare size, color, texture and the range of shades in the wall, and we can set out a sample to judge the match. Finding a close brick can take some searching. New brick may look fresher at first.

Does the fireplace need to stay unused during brick replacement?

Sometimes, while mortar around the new units cures and while any opening near the flue is closed up. Where the new bricks sit decides how long, and we give you a clear point to resume fires.

Can one cracked brick wait, or should it be replaced now?

A single hairline crack in an otherwise firm brick may be watched. A crack through the face, a loose unit or a face that is coming away should be replaced, because water can keep entering there. We explain which applies.
