Our approach to spalled brick in Tildenville
The details below shape the repair we recommend in Tildenville, and each one shows up in your written estimate.
Mortar for the replacement units
The mortar around new brick should have physical properties similar to the existing mortar so the new and old brickwork perform together. Technical Note 46 adds a warning that a mismatched mortar can spall and crack the brick already in the wall.
We assess the existing joints before choosing a mix for the replacement units. The estimate names the mortar type we intend to use so you can see the choice was made for your chimney. If the original mix is unusual or the brick is old and soft, we explain what that means for the repair.
A cracked crown feeding water into the top courses
Cracks in the crown let water into the masonry below it. That water travels into the upper courses, where it can contribute to spalling and efflorescence.
When we see spalled brick near the top, we check the crown for cracks and open joints around the flue. Crown repair is quoted on its own line. Doing both jobs in one visit keeps roof access to a single trip, but you decide whether to approve them together.
Our workmanship warranty on replaced brick
Our workmanship warranty covers the brick units we set and the joints we point around them. If one of our replacement units works loose or a joint we placed fails, we come back to fix it.
Brick that was not part of the repair, and damage from causes outside our work, fall outside the warranty, which is why the estimate records exactly which units we replaced. Keep that record with your home papers.
What you can check from the ground
From the yard, you can often spot flaking faces, cracked units, white deposits and pieces of brick on the roof or ground. A pair of binoculars gives a closer view of the upper courses without any risk.
Note where the damage is, whether it is near the top, at the roof line or near the ground, and share that when you call. It helps us plan the visit. There is no need to climb up or pull at loose pieces yourself.

What people in Tildenville ask about spalled brick
Still deciding? These answers help, and the inspection in Tildenville is free.
Do you fix the reason the brick failed?
We identify the likely sources, such as a cracked crown, a missing cap, failed flashing, a coating or a sprinkler, and quote their repairs on separate lines. Replacing brick without addressing the water leaves the new units exposed to the same cause.
Can loose brick fall off the chimney?
It can, especially near the top. Keep people and pets clear of the area below visible damage and do not pull at loose pieces. If a brick is hanging over a walkway, call our 24/7 emergency line.
