Where a rebuild starts and where it stops

Rebuilding before a new roof goes on

If a roof replacement is planned, the chimney rebuild should usually come first. The new courses, counterflashing and crown can then be finished before the new covering is laid around the base.

Doing it the other way round means disturbing new roofing to reach the chimney. Tell us the roofer's timing and scope. We agree the order with them, so the flashing layers are built in the right sequence and the junction closes once. That also keeps each trade's part of the junction clearly separate.

Access equipment for a rebuild

Rebuilding means working at height for several days with heavy material. Depending on the chimney's height and the roof, that calls for roof staging or scaffolding set against the house.

Access is listed as its own item on the estimate, since it can be a meaningful part of the cost. We plan where equipment stands and how it is protected, and tell you which doors, paths or parking areas will be affected while it is up. Staging stays in place only as long as the work needs it and comes down before the final cleanup.

A family team for a large project

A rebuild is one of the larger jobs a chimney can need, and it helps to deal with people who explain things plainly. We are a family-owned and locally owned company, and the person who assesses your chimney talks you through the findings.

Ask why a rebuild is suggested, where it would start and what the alternatives are. Ask what could change once removal begins. Those conversations are part of how we work. You should understand the whole plan before any brick comes down.

A closer flue check once the rebuild is done

A rebuild changes the chimney system. NFPA 211, the national standard for chimneys, fireplaces and vents, treats a change like that as a reason for a closer look.

Before the fireplace goes back into use, we look down the flue from the new top, not only at the rebuilt section. The aim is to confirm it is clear of debris and the lining joins are sound. We explain what we find, including anything below the rebuild that needs its own decision.

Your chimney rebuild questions

What happens if it rains during the rebuild?

Open work stays covered, and fresh mortar is protected from heavy rain. Steps that need dry weather move to a suitable day, and the scope and price stay the same.

What paperwork do I get after the rebuild?

A written record of the work that shows where the rebuild started, what was used for the lining, crown and flashing. Keep it with your house papers.

What stops water getting into the new top?

The new crown is sloped with a drip edge, separated from the flue lining by a bond break, and the joints are tooled to shed rain. New counterflashing is set into the courses at the roof line.
