Your chimney has started to lean

Noticed a gap opening between the chimney and the house, or a lean you can see from the street? A tilt that starts above the roofline points to failed masonry at the top. One that runs from the ground up points to the footing.

Both get checked, so you'll know which you have. A lean at the top means rebuilding that section; a failing footing means a bigger job, taking the chimney down and rebuilding it on a proper base. Either way, it's one to deal with soon, and you'll see the plan and price spelled out. Reserve a look at the leaning chimney in Hague by calling (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Storm damage to the top courses

A strong storm can reach well inland and take the top courses off a chimney in Hague, especially one whose mortar was already weak. Falling limbs can do the same. Our pros cover the damaged top to keep rain out, then build back up from solid brick with a new crown, cap and flashing, each with a written price. If rain is on the way, the cover goes on the same day.

Rebuilding only the top section

On many failing chimneys, the damage stops near the roofline. The part above the roof takes wind, rain and sun on every side, while the part below is sheltered by the house.

A top-section rebuild takes the exposed part down to sound masonry, sometimes just below the roof deck or at the roofline, and rebuilds it with fresh mortar and matched brick. It comes with a new crown, cap and flashing. It's a fraction of the work of a full rebuild and it deals with the part that actually failed. Our pros confirm the lower section is sound before recommending it.

Choosing the mortar for new masonry

Mortar for a rebuild is chosen with the same care as for repointing. ASTM C270 defines the mortar types, and the Brick Industry Association advises choosing the weakest type that still meets the job's needs, since a softer mortar lets the wall move and breathe without cracking the brick.

For an exposed chimney top, that points to one of the general-purpose types rather than the strongest available. Our specialists match the choice to your brick, especially when old brick is being reused, and the type is named on your quote. Reused brick, in particular, needs a mortar no harder than itself, or the old faces will crack.

Joints tooled to keep water out

How the joints are finished changes how the new chimney handles rain. The Brick Industry Association's guidance on water penetration favors concave, V and similar tooled joints, which compact the mortar surface and shed water.

Our pros tool every joint of the rebuilt section at the right moment, when the mortar is firm enough to hold the shape. Raked or struck joints that leave a ledge for water aren't used on chimney tops. Where the lower chimney has a particular joint style, the new work is tooled to match it as closely as a water-shedding profile allows. Well-tooled joints are one of the reasons a rebuilt top outlasts the one it replaced.

FAQs

Chimney rebuilds, briefly answered

Could a repair be enough instead?

Sometimes. Our pros price the best repair next to the rebuild and tell you how long each is likely to hold. Talk to us about your options in Hague at (352) 675-6366.

What happens to the old brick and debris?

Sound bricks may be cleaned and reused. Everything else comes down in bags or a chute and is hauled away. The roof, gutters and yard are cleaned at the end.
