From removal to new crown, a full rebuild

A damaged lining found below the rebuild

Removing the top of a chimney gives a clear view of the flue lining below the rebuild line. Sometimes that view shows cracked or missing tiles that could not be seen before.

If that happens, we stop and show you what we found. Repairing or relining the lower flue is a separate decision, with its own price. We explain how it affects the rebuild, since it is simpler to line the whole flue while the top is open than to come back later.

Rot found around the chimney

Removing masonry near the roof can uncover damaged decking, rafters or framing around the chimney, often from a long-standing leak. That damage could not be seen during the inspection.

We stop and show you what was found, and we explain how far the damage seems to go. Framing repair is usually a roofer's or carpenter's job, and we coordinate the timing so the rebuild does not close over rotten wood. The finding is priced or referred as a separate item rather than folded quietly into the masonry.

Masonry coming down and the 24/7 line

If bricks or pieces of crown are falling from the chimney, move people and pets away from that side of the house. Keep them clear of doors and paths beneath it, and do not climb up to look.

Then use our 24/7 emergency line, which exists for chimney problems that cannot wait for a routine booking. We plan safe access and protection for the area below. The urgent work and any later rebuild are discussed and priced before they begin. Keep a note of what fell and where, since it helps us plan the safest access.

Rebuild work at the roof in Broward County

Homes in Broward County sit inside the zone the Florida Building Code calls the HVHZ. Its roofing sections for that zone govern how roof covering and flashing are laid there. A rebuild that reaches the roof line typically disturbs both around the chimney.

Before approving, ask which of those HVHZ rules touch the base flashing and covering on your house. Our estimate splits the junction into the masonry and counterflashing we build and the covering a roofer resets, so both halves are planned to that standard.

What the rebuild scope can include

  • Clearance to framing at roof and attic
  • Fireblocking where the stack passes floors
  • Corrosion-resistant ties where the chimney needs them
  • Cover over the open chimney each evening

Your chimney rebuild questions

Will the rebuilt chimney need to be taller than before?

Only if the old top fell short of the Florida Building Code's height rule for chimneys. We check it against the roof and nearby parts of the house and explain any change before you approve.

Can a chimney that has moved away from the house be rebuilt?

Often, but the reason it moved has to be understood first. We look at the base, the attachment and the crack pattern, and we explain what should be assessed before a rebuild is priced.

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.
