A chimney leaning after a storm
A tilt you did not notice before the storm, or a fresh gap where chimney meets wall, suggests the stack has shifted. A shifting chimney can topple, so the ground on its leaning side is kept clear of people and vehicles.
Do not go up to check. We assess it from the ground and the roof when it is safe to do so, take down anything that could fall and cover what is open. The rebuild is priced separately once the chimney is stable. Chimney leaning at your home in Mayport? Phone (904) 920-5495 at any hour.

How emergency chimney repair runs
-
911 first for fire, smoke or gas
Fire, smoke and gas odors go to 911 or the gas company before any chimney work is discussed.
-
A few questions on the phone
What happened, what you can see and how the roof looks decide who comes and when.
-
Made safe and weather-tight
Loose material comes down, open flues are covered and water is stopped at the chimney.
-
Written note, then the real repair
You get a note of what was done, and the permanent repair is priced in daylight.

A gas smell goes to the utility
Gas odor anywhere indoors means walking out without flipping lights or appliances, then calling the gas company or 911 from the street or a neighbor's. Do not try to find the source yourself.
The gas supply and the appliance are for the utility and a gas contractor to deal with. After they have made the house safe, the chimney or vent the appliance uses may need checking, and that part we can help with. The estimate names who does what, so nothing falls between the trades. A fireplace that has had a gas problem stays off until the utility or a gas contractor says it may run.
Taking down what could fall
Loose bricks or pieces of concrete at the top of a chimney can fall at any time, onto the roof, a walkway or a car. When they cannot be secured in place safely, the loose material is taken down by hand and lowered to the ground.
That leaves the chimney shorter or open at the top until it is rebuilt, so the opening is covered against rain. The rebuild is priced in daylight as its own job. Taking down only what is loose, and no more, keeps the permanent repair as small as the damage allows.
Chase covers torn off in wind
Framed chimney chases around factory-built fireplaces are closed at the top by a metal chase cover. When wind tears it off, rain falls straight into the chase, onto the framing and the metal chimney pipe.
The temporary fix is a secure cover over the chase top, leaving the chimney pipe's own cap in place where it is intact. The permanent fix is a new cover sized to the chase, with a proper slope and drip edge, priced separately. Wet framing inside the chase is noted for inspection once it dries. Where the chase siding has also been damaged, it is covered so rain cannot enter from the side.

Before the crew arrives
Will a tarp hold until the repair?
For a short time. We tell you how long ours should hold, check it if the weather turns and schedule the permanent repair before it wears out.
What if a bird is nesting in the chimney?
We identify it first. Some birds are protected while nesting, and then the answer may be to wait with the fireplace closed off rather than remove the nest.
