From removal to new crown, a full rebuild
Metal ties between the new stack and the house
Where a chimney runs alongside the house, it is often tied to the structure. The brick industry's chimney guidance describes corrosion-resistant metal ties between a single-width chimney and the building behind it.
When the rebuild reaches levels where ties belong, we check the existing ties and add or replace them as the courses rise. Rusted or missing ties can explain why a chimney pulled away in the first place. The estimate lists the tie work and the metal used, so it is not left out of sight.
The inspection window and the rebuild price
Rebuilds are large projects, and you may want time to weigh one. Should you decide inside the 72 hours that follow your free inspection, whatever service you book in that span, the rebuild included, gets a 10% discount.
The window is counted from your own inspection, not from a calendar date. If you need longer, you can still book the rebuild, just without the discount. The removal line, the materials and the steps stay exactly as written, whichever way you choose. Ask us to confirm the date the window closes if that helps you plan.
Comparing two rebuild quotes
Rebuild quotes can differ widely, so compare them stage by stage. Check where each one starts the removal, how the flue will be lined, what kind of crown is included and who handles the flashing and roof covering.
A lower total may reflect a higher removal line, a mortar wash instead of a formed crown or cleanup left out. Ask how each company handles damage found below the planned line. We are happy to go through our estimate stage by stage with you.
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.
Rebuild items from removal to cap
- Dismantling to sound masonry
- Lining decision for the connected appliance
- Rain cap fitted to the flue
- Clearance to framing at roof and attic
Before you approve a chimney rebuild
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.
Do I need an engineer before the chimney is rebuilt?
Only when the damage suggests a structural cause, such as a stack pulling away from the house, stepped cracking or signs the base has moved. We explain when that assessment should come first.
Can the rebuild be split into stages?
Partly. Loose masonry can be made safe first and the rebuild scheduled later. Once removal starts, though, the section is usually rebuilt in one sequence, so the chimney is not left open.
