Your roofer found something at the chimney

Did a roofer point out cracked brick or loose flashing at the chimney while working on your roof? Good timing. Chimney repairs and roof work go best in the right order, with the masonry fixed before new flashing and roofing go on.

The chimney side is ours: brick, mortar, crown, cap and the flashing where our work meets theirs. Your roofer handles the roof covering. We'll coordinate the order with them, and your quote spells out who does what. Timing it together also saves a second round of ladders on your roof. Talk to our chimney repair specialists before the roofers finish in Micanopy: (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Ground settling under a chimney

A masonry chimney rests on its own footing, and if the ground under it settles unevenly, the chimney can tilt or crack where it meets the house. On a home in Micanopy, a widening gap at the wall is the clue. Our pros measure any gap, check the footing where they can see it, and tell you if the fix is at the base or in the masonry above the roof.

The attic side of a chimney repair

The attic is where a leaking chimney shows itself first, long before a stain reaches the ceiling below. Water marks on the rafters beside the chimney, damp insulation, rusty nails and daylight around the masonry all point to trouble above.

Where there's access, the attic is part of any chimney repair visit. Our specialists look for those signs and for wood touching the masonry, since framing needs an air space from the chimney. What they find in the attic shapes the repair on the roof, and you'll hear about both together. Wet insulation beside a chimney is worth replacing once the leak is fixed, and your quote says who handles it.

When repair turns into partial rebuild

Patching has limits. When the brick above the roofline is loose through several courses, the mortar has lost its grip, or the chimney top has shifted, patching only postpones a bigger job.

At that point, our pros recommend taking the chimney down to sound masonry and rebuilding it from there, which tends to mean just the top section. It's more work than a patch but less than a full rebuild, and it comes with a new crown and cap. You'll see both options priced so you can compare them fairly on cost and on how long each will hold. The choice stays yours.

Vines and plants on the brick

Vines climbing a chimney look nice, but their roots work into mortar joints, hold moisture against the brick and pry loose anything that's already weak. Plants growing from the top of a chimney mean water and soil have collected there.

Our specialists remove growth carefully, since tearing vines off can pull mortar with them. They then check and repoint the joints underneath. If plants are rooting on the crown, the crown needs attention too. The cleanup and the repair are priced as separate lines, so you know what each costs. Trimming the plants back from the brick afterwards keeps the new joints sound.
