Bricks on the roof or the drive
Brick pieces or broken concrete turning up on shingles, in gutters or across the drive tell you the chimney top is breaking up. More can follow in the next gust, so the area below the chimney is no place for people, pets or cars.
Keep everyone clear and do not climb up to look. Our crew takes down what is loose, covers what is open and writes up the rebuild for later. Pieces falling from the chimney at your house in Middleburg? Call (904) 920-5495, day or night, for an emergency visit.

Emergency calls inland in Middleburg

The approach is the same: make it safe tonight and price the repair in daylight.

What counts as a chimney emergency
A chimney emergency is damage that gets worse by the hour or puts people at risk. A storm driving water indoors, a flue left bare after its cap blew away, loose brick over a path, an animal loose in the house and a chimney whose fire has just been put out all qualify.
Other faults are genuine yet can wait for a normal visit, such as an old dry stain, a fine crack or a fireplace that smokes on still days. Describing the problem on the phone usually sorts it into one group or the other. When it is unclear, we treat it as urgent until we know more.
Pricing the permanent repair
The permanent repair is not guessed at in the dark. Once the weather clears and the chimney can be examined properly, it gets a written estimate of its own, listing each item, the reason it failed, the fix and the price.
Nothing permanent starts without your sign-off, even after an emergency call. That keeps the night visit focused on safety and the lasting work planned with care. The estimate for the permanent repair is free. You can compare it with any other estimate you get, line by line. If the damage turns out smaller in daylight than it looked at night, the estimate reflects that too.
A chimney that has moved
Once a chimney has shifted, leaning out or opening a gap at the wall, it is a falling hazard. The area it would fall toward is kept clear of people and vehicles until it has been assessed.
When it is safe to approach, we check how far it has moved, take down loose material from the top and cover any opening. Whether the chimney can be braced and repaired or has to be taken down and rebuilt is decided in daylight, with the reasons written down. Temporary bracing is used only where it can be fixed safely without adding load to damaged masonry.
Emergency findings in writing
- Whether the fireplace can be used, stated in writing
