Questions
Chimney Repair: common questions
Repoint or rebuild?
If the bricks are solid and only the mortar has failed, repointing is enough. If bricks are loose, flaking or the stack is leaning, rebuilding that section is the lasting fix.
Will the new brick match?
We choose brick and mortar to match the existing chimney as closely as possible.
Can you fix the roof around it too?
Yes. We are a roofing contractor as well, so flashing and shingles around the chimney are part of the same job.
