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 Inglis by calling (352) 675-6366.
Inglis is on our Levy County list of places we serve. When the 2020 Census counted Inglis, it found 1,476 residents.

Local Conditions
A rebuild close to the coast in Inglis
Being this close to the coast, a chimney top in Inglis can see some salt. It's lighter than on the shore, but it's worth building against when the chimney is being rebuilt anyway. Our specialists use stainless flashing and cap hardware and keep crown reinforcement well inside the concrete, so the new top holds up for years. The upgrade costs little on a job this size.
Our Process
Down to sound brick, then back up
-
Find the sound line
Course by course, the chimney is checked to see how much has to come down, and that's priced.
-
Protect and take down
Roof and yard are protected, and the failed masonry comes down by hand.
-
Rebuild with liner
New courses rise with matched brick, with liners set as they go.
-
Top it off and flash it
A new crown, cap and flashing finish the chimney, with curing time written out.

Topping the rebuild with a proper crown
Every rebuild our pros finish gets a crown built the way the Florida Building Code describes for masonry chimneys: concrete, metal or stone across the top, pitched so water runs off, finished with a drip at the edge, and with a caulked joint where each flue liner passes through.
It's formed to overhang the new brick so water drips clear of the chimney face, and it's reinforced and cured properly. A flat mortar top like the one that may have helped the old chimney fail isn't an option. The crown is part of the rebuild price. A cap sized to the flue goes on right after.
How long before the first fire
Fresh masonry and a fresh crown need days to cure before they're heated from inside. Fresh mortar gains strength over days, and heating it early can crack joints and the crown before they've set.
Our pros give you the waiting time for your rebuild spelled out, based on the materials used. Once it's cured, start with a modest fire and the damper wide open to check the chimney draws cleanly. They'll tell you what to watch for, such as smoke rolling back into the room, and to call if anything seems off. The curing time is the one wait on a rebuild worth taking seriously.
Rebuilding in step with a new roof
Rebuild work and a new roof go best together. The roofers need the chimney sound and its crown finished before they flash around it, and our pros need the roof open to rebuild at the roofline.
Our pros schedule the rebuild so the masonry and crown are done, and the counter flashing set into the new brick, when the roofers reach the chimney. The base and step flashing go in with the new roofing. The quote splits the work clearly, and our specialists talk with your roofer so nothing is missed between the two jobs. That conversation happens before either job starts.

FAQs
Chimney rebuilds, briefly answered
Do I need a permit for a chimney rebuild?
Generally yes, since the Florida Building Code requires one for this kind of work; your local building department sets the details and inspects. The quote says who pulls the permit and whether the fee is included.
What paperwork comes with a rebuild?
Your quote records what came down, what went back up and the materials used, and our workmanship warranty covers the rebuilt section. Keep it with your house papers, since it's useful if you sell. Ask about a rebuild in Inglis at (352) 675-6366.
