Timing chimney work around a new roof
When a roof is being replaced, the chimney is exposed in a way it will not be again for years. That is the moment to reflash it, check the crown and repoint the joints along the roof line. We can plan that sequence with your roofer: they strip the roof, we do the chimney work, and they roof back up to the new flashing.
Every item in the Brooklyn re-roof plan is marked with the trade it belongs to, so nothing is left out or done twice. Without a re-roof, we still coordinate when a flashing repair needs tile or shingle lifted. Something loose, cracked or leaking up there? The Brooklyn inspection is free at (904) 920-5495.
Brooklyn lies inland, over six miles from the coast. About 6 miles, as the crow flies, separate Brooklyn from Jacksonville.

How It Works
How our chimney repair pros work in Brooklyn
-
Whole chimney checked, firebox to cap
Every part of the chimney is checked on a free visit, and each defect is named by the job it breaks.
-
Repairs ranked by urgency
Heat and smoke faults come first, then water, then movement, then wear, each with its own price.
-
Failed part fixed with named materials
We bring the mortar, concrete and metal listed on your estimate, so what goes on the chimney is what you approved.
-
Work shown, site cleaned
We clean up, show you each repair and note anything worth watching at the yearly check.
Local Conditions
Hurricane season reaches Brooklyn too
Six months of hurricane season, June through November, bring wind that does not stop at the shoreline. Inland chimneys lose caps, lift flashing and loosen their top courses in the same storms.
After a storm passes Brooklyn, take a minute to look at the top of the chimney from the yard, and phone us about anything that moved.

Cutting out a single damaged brick
A brick that has lost its face can be replaced on its own when the bricks around it are sound. The mortar around it is cut out, the damaged unit broken out in pieces so its neighbors are not disturbed, and the cavity cleaned.
The new brick is buttered with mortar on its top, bottom and ends, slid in, and the joints packed and tooled. The hard part is the match: size, color and texture. A salvaged brick or a close modern match is chosen before the day, and you hear in advance how close the match is likely to be, so a lighter patch on an old face is not a surprise.
Temporary patches, and how the estimate treats them
Sometimes a temporary fix is the right first step: a strip of flashing tucked under a lifted edge before a storm, sealant on a crown crack until the recast can be scheduled, a tarp over an open flue. Those measures are listed as temporary, with how long they are expected to hold and what replaces them.
A patch is not dressed up as a repair. That distinction matters later, when you sell the house or look back at the chimney's records, because a document that says repaired should mean the part was actually fixed, and a document that says temporary tells the next person exactly what is still open.
What a yearly check catches while it is still small
The yearly inspection that NFPA 211 calls for is where small defects are found while they are still small: a hairline crack in a crown, a flashing edge starting to lift, a joint going sandy at the roof line. Each is a short repair on its own.
Left for a few years, the crack lets water into the top courses, the flashing lets it into the attic, and the joint lets the brick faces go. A repair visit is a good moment to set up that yearly check, so the chimney is looked at on a schedule rather than after the next stain appears.

FAQ
Before you book a chimney repair
Can the repairs be done in stages?
Yes. The estimate can be split into stages, beginning with safety and water entry, then damaged masonry, then wear items. Each stage leaves the chimney better than before, and items that must be done together stay together.
Will you work with my roofer?
Yes. Flashing and chimney work fit best into a re-roof schedule, and we can sequence our part with the roofer's. The estimate names which items belong to each trade.
