Chimney rebuild work at homes in Boulevard Park Isles
New brick for the courses that stay
In a partial rebuild, the new brick sits directly above the old, so the match matters. Size is as important as color, since a brick that is taller or longer shows in every joint line.
We look for new brick close to yours and bring samples to compare against the retained courses. Where no close match exists, we explain the options, including reusing sound original bricks on the most visible faces. The estimate names the brick chosen and where it will go.
Maintenance visits after a rebuild
A rebuilt chimney still benefits from a look now and then. A maintenance visit checks the crown, the cap, the flashing and the joints of the new courses, along with the masonry below the removal line.
Small things, such as a sealant joint at the flashing or debris on the crown, are easier to deal with early. You decide how often a visit suits your chimney. Any work found is priced separately, and there is no plan to join. Looking at the chimney from the ground after strong winds is a useful habit between visits.
When masonry repair will do
Not every damaged chimney needs rebuilding. Where the damage is limited to certain joints or units, and the stack has not moved, chimney masonry repair can fix it in place.
We explain which case you have. If the evidence points to a local repair, we price that instead of a rebuild. If you would like both options priced, we can set them side by side with the reasons for each, so you can compare scope and expected life. Choosing the smaller repair now does not rule out a rebuild later if the chimney needs it.
Rusted ties and metal in the old stack
Metal ties, anchors and old fixings inside chimney masonry can rust over time. Rusting steel swells, can crack the brick around it and loses its hold on the house.
When a rebuild removes that masonry, the old metal comes out with it. New ties go in as the courses rise, in a corrosion-resistant metal suited to the job. Where rust stains or cracks point to rusting metal below the planned line, we explain what that means for the rebuild. We note any rusted metal we remove, so you can see what was found.
Priced steps of a partial rebuild
- Counterflashing set into new joints
- Top height checked against the code
- Cover over the open chimney each evening
- Fireplace opening sealed during removal
Partial and full rebuild questions
Will a rebuild change how my fireplace draws?
It should not make it worse. The rebuilt flue is kept to a size that suits the fireplace, and the top follows the code's height rule. If draft was a problem before, we explain what the rebuild can and cannot change.
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.
Do you need to go into the attic for a rebuild?
Sometimes. If removal goes below the roof line, the attic side shows the masonry, the framing clearances and the fireblocking. We tell you in advance if attic access is part of the plan.
