When a chimney is past
the point of repair
Some chimneys have gone too far for tuckpointing or a partial rebuild. We handle full reconstruction and new chase or chimney builds from the ground up.
New construction and full reconstruction
A new chase for a wood-framed installation, a masonry chimney for an addition, or a ground-up reconstruction of a stack that's failed structurally. This is where design meets code: height under the 3-2-10 rule, proper clearances, and correctly sized flues for whatever ties in.
We also evaluate appliance tie-ins during a rebuild: whether a new gas stove can safely share an existing liner, or whether it needs its own flue.
What this prevents
- A stack too short to draft properly, which the 3-2-10 rule exists to prevent.
- An unsafe appliance tie-in sharing a flue that was never sized for it.
- Paying for the job twice because the first rebuild was not done to code.
Signs you need this
A chimney separating structurally from the house, a chase that needs replacing during a siding or roofing project, or new construction that needs a chimney or vent system from scratch.
