Chimney and roof repair handled in order
What to mention when you call about damage
You do not need the right trade term to book a visit. Describe what you saw, where you saw it and when it started. A piece of brick on the patio, a rusty streak on the chimney face or a damp patch beside the fireplace are all useful starting points.
Mention how the fireplace is used and whether anything else vents into the chimney, such as a furnace or water heater. Tell us about recent roof work, earlier chimney repairs and any advice you were given to stop using the fireplace. Those details shape how we plan the visit and what we bring.
A chimney walk-around you can do from the lawn
A lot can be seen without leaving the ground. Walk around the house with binoculars and look at the top of the chimney, the faces of the brick and the metal where the chimney meets the roof. Look for leaning parts, open joints, dark streaks and pieces missing from the edges.
Indoors, check the ceiling and walls beside the chimney for stains and the firebox floor for debris or rust flakes. Write down what you find and where. Please stay off the roof and away from ladders, since loose masonry and wet roofing are real fall hazards.
Roofing work around the chimney in Broward County
In Broward County, roofing work falls under the Florida Building Code's HVHZ provisions, a set of roofing and structural rules the code applies to this county. Those provisions can shape how roof covering and flashing around a chimney are removed and reset.
If a repair touches the roof around your chimney, ask what those provisions require for the flashing and covering on your job. We explain which part we handle and which part a roofer handles. Both are named on the estimate so the junction is closed to the right standard.
Planning chimney and roof steps under the HVHZ rules
Where the HVHZ roofing provisions apply, as they do in Broward County, the order of chimney and roof work matters. Masonry repairs above the junction are usually best finished before the roof covering around the base is reset to those rules.
Tell us whether a roofer is already involved and what they have planned. We agree the sequence with them before either job starts. That way the new covering is not disturbed later to reach a chimney repair that could have come first.

Asked often about chimney damage
Does a chimney I no longer use still need repairs?
If it is damaged, yes. An unused chimney still sheds rain around its top and at the roof junction. Loose masonry or an open joint can let water into the house whether or not a fire is ever lit.
Can you repair a chimney that also vents a furnace or water heater?
Yes, with planning. If the repair would interrupt that vent, the appliance may need a heating or plumbing contractor to disconnect and reconnect it, and we build that step into the schedule.
Can you finish a repair another company started?
We can assess it. We look at what was done, what remains open and whether the earlier work is sound, then price the remaining repair as its own scope for you to approve.
