Staying home during the rebuild

Can you stay in the house while the chimney is rebuilt? Yes. Most of the work happens on the roof and outside, and the fireplace simply stays out of use until the job is finished and cured.

Where work reaches inside, such as at the firebox or the chimney breast, our pros seal the fireplace opening and protect the floor. Outside, they keep a clear, safe zone below the chimney and let you know when to keep people and pets away from it. You'll get a rough schedule on the quote. Reserve a chimney rebuild at your home in Waldo 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 Waldo, 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.

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.

Masonry between neighboring flues

Multiple flues need an arrangement that meets the applicable separation requirements. The number of appliances and the way they connect can affect the required detail and any exception. The rebuild scope should establish that configuration before masonry between the flues is replaced.

On a rebuild, our pros lay those partitions as the walls rise, fully mortared, with each liner set in its own space. It's one of the details that matters most on chimneys shared by a fireplace and a furnace or water heater, since exhaust crossing into the wrong flue can reach a living space. The layout of the flues is shown on your quote.

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.

Covering the chimney every evening

A chimney under rebuild is open to the sky. Rain falling into it overnight soaks fresh mortar, washes it from the joints and runs down into the firebox and the house.

Our specialists cover the open top and any partly built courses with a waterproof sheet whenever work stops for the day, weighted or tied so wind can't lift it. The covers come off the next morning and go back on whenever work stops. It's routine on every rebuild, and it's included in the price, so rain doesn't set the job back. Mortar that stays dry overnight cures properly the next day.

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.

Is a new liner part of the rebuild?

Where the liner is cracked or missing, yes, and it gets its own price. Clay tile can be set as the walls rise, or a stainless liner listed for your appliance can be fitted.
