Keeping your roof and yard in one piece

Worried about the mess? A rebuild does create debris, and our pros plan for it. Roof coverings and boards protect the shingles or tiles around the chimney, and debris comes down in bags or a chute rather than over the edge.

Tarps cover the ground, plants and anything below. Every evening the site is cleaned up and the chimney is covered before our pros leave. When the job's done, gutters are checked for grit and everything is hauled away. It's all part of the price, so there's nothing extra to arrange. Reserve a clean, careful rebuild in Orange Heights by phoning (352) 675-6366.

Orange Heights is set inland from Florida's sea coasts. About 13 miles, measured point to point, lie between Orange Heights and the Gainesville reference point.

Local Conditions

Vines and roots in an old chimney

Vines that climbed a chimney in Orange Heights for years can leave roots deep in the joints, and they speed up the mortar failure that leads to a rebuild. Our pros clear the growth before the rebuild and repoint the lower section where roots have loosened joints, so the new top sits on sound masonry. Clearing the growth first also shows how deep the damage runs.

Our Process

Four stages of a rebuild

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.

How far a chimney can step out

A chimney that steps outward from a wall needs support appropriate to that design. Corbeling has limits, and the supporting wall or foundation matters as well as the projecting brickwork. Movement or uncertain support calls for assessment before the upper section is rebuilt.

A rebuilt corbeled section stays inside those limits. On older chimneys that stepped out further, the rebuild is an opportunity to bring the shape back within the code, and the quote explains what changes. Where the old shape can't be kept inside the rules, you'll see the new profile drawn on the quote before work starts.

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.

What the building department may ask for

Rebuilding a chimney counts as construction, so Florida's permit rules apply, and your county or city building office decides the specifics, reviews the plans where it asks for them, and inspects the work.

Before approving the estimate, establish who is responsible for the application, which inspection stages are expected and which charges are included. A smaller repair may be treated differently from a rebuild. The responsible department's requirements should guide the work sequence and any expected waiting time.

FAQs

Rebuild questions worth asking

Will the rebuilt part match the rest?

Our pros reuse sound bricks from the section coming down and match new ones for size, color and texture. You'll see a sample against the chimney before the new courses go up.

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.
