La Mesa CA Chimney Masonry Repair
Cracked or spalling bricks and crumbling mortar can lead to water leaks and system-wide chimney damage. Damaged masonry can also cause a chimney to lean or collapse. Our La Mesa chimney repair crew replaces damaged bricks and performs tuckpointing to strengthen mortar joints.
Partial & Complete Rebuilding
Severely damaged chimneys need to be rebuilt by experienced masons who know how to do the job right. We can rebuild parts of your chimney or the entire structure from the ground up.
Chimney Flashing Repair and Replacement
Multi-part flashing material keeps water out of the gap between the roof and the chimney. We can sometimes re-seal dislodged flashing, but if there’s major rust or warping, it’s usually best to just replace it.
Chimney Cap/Chase Top Repair & Installation
Chimney caps on masonry chimneys and chase tops on manufactured chimneys provide protection against rain, tree debris and small animals. If a cap or chase top is damaged or missing, it can lead to all kinds of trouble. We repair and replace these components.
Chimney Crown Repair and Rebuilding
Cracks in the concrete chimney crown will let water run down into the interior areas of the chimney. The result can be damage to the masonry and adjacent parts of your La Mesa home. Our chimney repair services include sealing, repairing and rebuilding chimney crowns.
La Mesa Chimney Liner Repair and Relining
A damaged chimney liner can allow heat, flames and deadly carbon monoxide to escape. We have several methods for repairing damaged liners; in extreme cases, we can install a sturdy new liner.
Smoke Chamber Parging
Rough surfaces in the smoke chamber, located between the flue and the firebox, can cause sluggish drafting and trap flammable creosote. Smoke chamber parging smooths out rough surfaces and keeps smoke, gases and intense heat from escaping through cracks and breaks.
Firebox Rebuilding
A damaged firebox can lead to the release of smoke and carbon monoxide. It may also start a fire in materials just beyond the firebox. Our fireplace masons can repair or rebuild your firebox to bring more safety and beauty to your La Mesa home.
Chimney Inspections
All chimney repair work begins with a proper chimney inspection. Often, there’s more going on than what’s immediately visible, and we want to understand it. After we’ve checked everything out, we’ll report our findings to you and recommend the best way to solve the problem.
