When Rebuilding is Necessary
Some chimney damage is too severe for repair. Years of water infiltration, significant structural movement, earthquake damage, or extensive deterioration may require partial or complete rebuilding. While more extensive than repair, rebuilding creates a safe, lasting chimney that will serve your home for decades.
Partial Chimney Rebuild
The most common rebuild is from the roofline up. This is the portion of chimney most exposed to weather and often deteriorates first while the chimney below the roofline remains sound. We carefully dismantle the damaged section and rebuild with new materials, matching the original appearance.
- Remove damaged portion above roofline
- Inspect remaining structure for soundness
- Rebuild with matching brick or stone
- Install new crown and flashing
- Add proper cap for protection
Complete Chimney Rebuild
When the entire chimney structure is compromised, complete rebuilding from the foundation is necessary. This is a significant project that restores your chimney to like-new condition with modern materials and construction methods. We can match the original appearance or update the design if desired.
Matching Original Materials
We understand the importance of maintaining your home's appearance. Our masons can source matching brick, stone, and mortar colors to ensure the rebuilt chimney blends seamlessly with your home. For historic homes, we use traditional materials and techniques appropriate to the period.
