Chimney Framing Rebuild
When wood framing around a factory-built chimney is past repair, we tear down to the metal flue and rebuild the entire chase with new framing, sheathing, weather barrier, siding, and chase cover.
What is chimney framing rebuild?
A framing rebuild reconstructs a chimney chase whose wood structure has failed beyond spot repair — typically from long-term water damage. We rebuild the chase framing to code, then restore siding, flashing, and cap so it's weather-tight and sound.
Common signs you need this service
- Extensive rot through multiple framing members
- Chimney chase visibly tilting or unstable
- Previous spot repairs that keep failing
- Daylight or water visible inside the chase
Every chimney framing rebuild includes:
- On-site inspection with photos
- Written quote before any work begins
- Code-compliant materials only
- Drop cloths + HEPA vacuum cleanup
- Same-day photo report + warranty doc

Common questions about chimney framing rebuild.
How often should I have my chimney swept?
The NFPA recommends an annual chimney inspection (Level 1), with sweeping done when buildup reaches 1/8" of creosote. For active wood-burning fireplaces, that's typically once per heating season.
Are your technicians certified?
Our chimney inspectors hold current CSIA (Chimney Safety Institute of America) certifications, verifiable via the CSIA member directory at csia.org. We also have NFI specialists for fireplace installations.
Do you offer emergency service?
Yes — emergency response is available 24/7 (subject to crew availability) for active water leaks, animal trapped in flue, post-fire damage, and storm damage. Same-day in most cases.
Do you provide written quotes before work begins?
Always. We provide a written quote before any work begins, with photos of the issues we found. Final pricing depends on chimney condition and any additional work identified during inspection.
What's the Chimney Care Plan membership?
Chimney Care Plan is our annual maintenance program at $19.99/month ($240/year). Includes: annual Level 1 inspection and sweep ($248 value), priority scheduling, 10% off all repairs, and emergency response priority. Cancel anytime, no contract.
