Water pouring in around the chimney

Rain running down the chimney breast, dripping from the ceiling beside the stack or pooling in the firebox gets worse every hour the storm lasts. Something at the top has opened up: a cap, the concrete top, the metal where the chimney meets the roof or the masonry itself.

Move furniture and rugs clear, catch what you can and stay off the roof. The line is answered 24/7, and we tell you what to do next and when someone can realistically be there. Water coming in at the chimney in Tallulah-North Shore? Call (904) 920-5495 and ask for our emergency crew.

What an emergency visit covers in Tallulah-North Shore

  • Water pouring in stopped at the chimney
  • Metal chimney pipe secured after storm damage
  • Permanent repairs estimated in daylight
  • Other trades named when they are needed

Safety first, cover, note, repair

  1. 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.

  2. A few questions on the phone

    What happened, what you can see and how the roof looks decide who comes and when.

  3. Made safe and weather-tight

    Loose material comes down, open flues are covered and water is stopped at the chimney.

  4. Written note, then the real repair

    You get a note of what was done, and the permanent repair is priced in daylight.

Water stopped and the flue covered? The lasting repair comes 10% off if you book it in the 72 hours.

Keeping animals out once the flue is clear

Once an animal is out, the flue is checked for nesting material and debris, which can block draft and attract the next visitor. That material is cleared before the fireplace is used.

Then the opening is closed off with a cap and screen sized to the flue tile, so animals cannot get back in while smoke still can get out. Where a cap is missing or damaged, its replacement is priced on the follow-up estimate. The goal is one removal, not a repeat call next season. Any gap an animal used to get in, beside the flue or under the cap, is closed at the same time.

Checking your chimney from the ground

Much can be learned after a storm without climbing anything. Look at the chimney top for a missing, tilted or bent cap, and at the chimney itself for cracks or a lean. Look at the roof around it for bricks, concrete or metal that were not there before.

Indoors, look in the firebox for fallen material and at the ceiling by the chimney for fresh marks. Anything you find is worth telling us on the phone, because it decides what we bring. Stay off the roof until it has been checked. Binoculars help if the chimney is tall or set back from the edge of the roof.

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

  1. Loose masonry taken down and what remains open
  2. Damage not reached safely that night, and when we return
  3. Interior water damage noted for planning
  4. Follow-up visit booked to check temporary covers

Emergency questions from Tallulah-North Shore

Can someone come tonight?

Someone picks up 24/7 and gives you an honest estimate of when a crew can reach you, given the storm and the roof. If first light is the safer time to work, you get clear instructions for the night.

Can I use the fireplace after an emergency visit?

The visit note says so in writing. After a fire, storm damage to the flue or a blockage, nothing is burned until the flue is examined and any repair is finished.

Stop the water and secure the chimney in Tallulah-North Shore

From a tarp tonight to a rebuilt top next week, emergency work in Tallulah-North Shore is written down at every step.
