What rebuild days look like

Wondering what to expect? Our pros set up roof protection and a safe way to get brick down, then take the chimney apart course by course to sound masonry, bagging debris as they go. Nothing goes over the edge of the roof.

The new masonry goes up course by course, with the flue liner set as it rises. Then comes the crown, the cap and the flashing. Each evening the open chimney gets a rain cover and the site gets tidied. At the end, you'll walk around the finished chimney with our specialists. Reserve your chimney rebuild in Starke by calling (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Chimneys that were built short

Built short, or left short when the roof was raised around it, a chimney draws poorly and can drop sparks on the roof.

A rebuilt top has to meet the building code's height rule, so our specialists measure it first. Your quote shows what reaching that height takes and who does that part of the work.

Our Process

Down to sound brick, then back up

  1. Find the sound line

    Course by course, the chimney is checked to see how much has to come down, and that's priced.

  2. Protect and take down

    Roof and yard are protected, and the failed masonry comes down by hand.

  3. Rebuild with liner

    New courses rise with matched brick, with liners set as they go.

  4. Top it off and flash it

    A new crown, cap and flashing finish the chimney, with curing time written out.

When the rebuild goes to the ground

Sometimes the whole chimney has to come down. A failing footing, a chimney leaning from its base, or masonry that's crumbling all the way down leaves no sound section to build on.

A full rebuild means taking the chimney down course by course, checking or replacing the footing, and building the new chimney up with its liner, clearances and fireblocking to the Florida Building Code. It's the biggest job our pros take on, and it's planned carefully with you, from the permit to the protection of your house and yard. You'll see every stage priced. The footing work alone can be a separate stage on the schedule.

Air space and fireblocking in a rebuild

A rebuild must keep the required separation between the chimney and combustible framing. The construction type and applicable exceptions determine the detail. Our pros discuss concealed areas that need closer examination before surrounding finishes are replaced.

Where the chimney passes floors and ceilings, the gap is fireblocked with noncombustible material. On a full rebuild, our pros build those clearances in and fireblock at each level. On a top-section rebuild, they check the attic and roof framing around the chimney and correct anything touching it before the new masonry goes up. Anything touching the masonry is noted with how it will be corrected.

Rebuilding a chimney you won't use

Some homeowners want the chimney kept for its looks but have no plans to light fires. A rebuild still has to make it sound and watertight, since loose masonry and an open top are problems whether it's used or not.

Our specialists can rebuild it with a capped, sealed flue and talk through what it would take to bring it back into use later. The liner choice and some interior work may change if fires aren't planned, and both options are priced. The quote records what was done, which helps if a future owner wants to use the fireplace. Both paths are priced.

FAQs

Chimney rebuilds, briefly answered

Does the whole chimney have to come down?

Not necessarily. The damage can stop at the roofline, with the lower chimney still sound. Our specialists check course by course to find sound masonry, and that line sets the scope.

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 Starke at (352) 675-6366.
