Why the attic is part of a repair visit

Up in the attic, a chimney shows its history. Stained rafters beside the stack record old leaks. Insulation packed against the brick, framing set tight to it, or missing fireblocking where the chimney passes a ceiling are things no one sees from the yard.

We go up with a light on every Ponte Vedra Beach visit where the attic can be reached safely. What we find there can change the repair list, and it is written down with the rest, with the location described well enough for you to find it yourself. If it is hot or cramped up there, we keep the visit short and say what we could not reach. Call (904) 920-5495 with your Ponte Vedra Beach address, and we will find the part that failed.

Ponte Vedra Beach sits about 13 miles from Jacksonville, measured directly. Ponte Vedra Beach lies within St. Johns County.

Local Conditions

Storm season on the coast in Ponte Vedra Beach

Hurricane season covers June 1 through November 30. Chimneys along the coastline in Ponte Vedra Beach take onshore wind before it has crossed any land, and loose top courses, a lifted flashing edge or a cap held by one screw give first.

Before and after the season we check those three parts on your chimney and fasten or relay whatever has worked loose.

Reading a stair-step crack

A crack that climbs through the mortar joints in steps, around the bricks rather than through them, is masonry following its weakest path. It can mean the footing settled at one corner, that the chimney was built with too few ties to the house, or simply that the mortar shrank long ago.

Width tells part of the story. We measure it at a few marked points, and where a crack is wider at the top than at the bottom, the chimney is probably rotating away from the house. That pattern turns a repointing job into a question about the footing, and the two lead to very different repairs.

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.

Chase covers on factory-built chimneys

On a factory-built fireplace, the flue is a listed metal chimney inside a framed chase, and the chase is topped with a sheet-metal cover. A cover that sits flat collects water, and a thin galvanized cover can rust through, letting water run down inside the chase onto the framing and the fireplace unit.

A sound replacement is made to measure, with a slope or cross-breaks so water runs off, a drip edge that clears the siding, and a collar and storm collar that fit the chimney pipe. The pipe itself stays the maker's listed part, so any work on it follows that maker's installation manual.

FAQ

Chimney repair questions from Ponte Vedra Beach

Can you repair just one part of my chimney?

Yes, when one part is what failed. The estimate lists each finding separately, so you can approve the crown and leave the repointing, or the other way round. If two items have to be done together to work, we say so.

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.
