A rebuild contractor that sets the boundary first
A stack that has moved
Some chimneys tip, twist or pull away from the house. The movement may come from the footing, from a failed attachment to the house or from the top section breaking loose from the masonry below.
A rebuild that simply relays the top on a moving base would not last. We look at where the movement starts and whether it continues below the roof. If the cause lies in the structure, we explain what should be assessed first. The rebuild is then planned around what that assessment finds.
Choosing how the new flue is lined
Every masonry chimney must be lined, and the Florida Building Code ties the lining material to the appliance it serves. A rebuild is the natural time to decide how the new section is lined.
The usual choices are clay flue tiles set as the brick goes up or a listed liner fitted inside the new masonry. The right choice depends on what burns in the fireplace, what else vents into the chimney and the state of the lining below. We explain the options and price the lining as its own line.
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.
A chimney separating from the house
A gap between chimney and house that widens toward the top suggests the stack is moving away from the building. Failed ties, a settling base or a loose upper section can all cause it.
We look at the attachment, the base and the crack pattern before suggesting a rebuild. If the cause is in the footing or the structure, an engineer's assessment may need to come first. A rebuild then restores the upper stack and ties it back to the house properly.
Priced steps of a partial rebuild
- Rain cap fitted to the flue

Your chimney rebuild questions
What happens to the flue lining during a rebuild?
The lining is rebuilt with the masonry, either as new clay flue tiles set as the courses rise or as a listed liner. The choice depends on the appliance connected, and it is priced as its own line.
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.
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.
