How our crew repoints a chimney in Colonialtown North
Practical points from our tuckpointing crew serving Colonialtown North.
Spalled brick beside open joints
Bricks whose faces have flaked or popped off often sit next to eroded joints, because both are signs of water in the wall. Repointing the joints does not repair a spalled brick.
When we find spalled units on your Colonialtown North chimney, they are listed for replacement as their own item. The replacement bricks go in first, and the surrounding joints are then repointed together, so the finished face is sound and consistent. Replacement units are matched as closely as practical in color and size, and the estimate says how close we expect to get.
A home inspection note about mortar
Home inspection reports often mention deteriorated or missing mortar on the chimney without saying how much or what the repair involves. That note is a reason for a closer look, and it helps to know the actual scope before closing.
Our free inspection in Colonialtown North turns the note into a written description of the joints, the areas that need repointing and anything else we find. Buyers and sellers both get a clear picture of the work, with a price attached. The written scope also helps when a buyer, seller or agent asks for something more specific than a one-line note.
Crown and cap repairs are listed separately
The crown at the top of a chimney is the roof of the masonry. When it is cracked, water pours into the top courses and wears out the joints there, so repointing below a failed crown only buys time.
If the crown or cap on your Colonialtown North chimney needs work, our estimate lists it as its own item beside the tuckpointing. The Florida Residential Code gives a masonry chimney a cap with a drip edge and a bond break where the flue comes through, and we tell you whether yours has one.
