What goes into rebuilding a chimney in Eatonville

Read these before you sign off on a rebuild in Eatonville.

Hollow units must be grouted solid

Some chimneys are built from hollow concrete block. The code permits hollow units only when they are grouted solid, which fills the cores and turns the block into a solid wall.

If a block chimney at your Eatonville home needs rebuilding, our masons grout the cores as the courses go up and keep the flue liner in position as they work. Ungrouted block found in the retained section is noted in the findings, together with what it means for the plan. Grouting takes time, and it is part of the price from the start.

Reused brick or new brick for the rebuild

Relaying the original units gives the closest match, but only sound units are worth reusing, and cleaning old mortar off them takes time. New brick is consistent and readily available, though it may look brighter at first.

For your Eatonville chimney, the estimate sets out which approach is planned and whether a blend of both is sensible. A common approach is to put salvaged units on the most visible face and matched new units where they are least noticed. Either way, every unit that goes into the wall is sound.

New flashing with a rebuilt chimney

Old flashing is shaped to the old chimney. Once the masonry at the roof line is rebuilt, reusing bent, patched or sealant-covered flashing rarely gives a reliable seal against the new courses.

For that reason, a rebuild through the roof on your Eatonville home normally includes new flashing. If only the courses well above the roof are relaid, the existing flashing may stay, and the estimate explains which case applies and why. New flashing is detailed to the roof covering in place, so the two work together from the first rain.

Our workmanship warranty on the rebuilt section

The masonry we lay is backed by our workmanship warranty. It covers the rebuilt courses, the joints we finish and the crown or cap we install as part of the job.

The terms are written into your Eatonville paperwork, including what the warranty covers and how to reach us if something looks wrong. Keep that document with the estimate and the materials list, and you will have everything a future owner or inspector might ask for. If you sell the house, the paperwork shows the buyer exactly what was rebuilt and when.

What Eatonville homeowners ask before a rebuild

Still weighing a rebuild? The inspection in Eatonville costs nothing.

How tall will the chimney be after the rebuild?

The finished top has to meet the code's height rule, 3 feet or more over the roof penetration and 2 feet taller than whatever part of the house is within 10 feet. We measure your Eatonville home and write the planned height into the estimate.

Should I seal the chimney after it is rebuilt?

Not right away. New mortar needs time to cure, and coatings applied too soon can trap moisture. If a water repellent makes sense later, we explain the options and the timing.
