Chimney Repair & Fireplace Services in Fort Lauderdale, FL

Chimney & Fireplace Work We Handle

From caps and crowns to leaks and masonry — swipe to see more.

Chimney Brothers Co is a family-owned chimney and fireplace company that works throughout Fort Lauderdale and the wider Broward County area. We know that a chimney in this part of South Florida lives a very different life than one in a colder, drier climate. Here the threat to your masonry, cap, and flashing isn't months of hard winter use, it's relentless humidity, salt-laden coastal air, and the wind-driven rain that arrives every hurricane season. Our work is built around the way the Atlantic coast actually treats a chimney.

Whether you have a wood-burning fireplace in an older home off Las Olas, a gas unit in a newer build out toward Plantation or Davie, or an outdoor masonry fireplace on a backyard patio, our services cover the full range of what local homes need: chimney repair, sweep and cleaning, inspection, leak and flashing repair, chimney caps, crown repair, full rebuilds, tuckpointing and masonry, and fireplace repair, service, and installation. We explain what we find in plain language, quote it upfront, and never push work a home doesn't need.

Because we're a local Florida team, we understand the seasonal rhythm of Fort Lauderdale homeownership, where the smart time to handle chimney and flashing work is before the next storm season rather than during it. We offer free estimates so you can understand the condition of your chimney without any pressure, and same-day service is available when a leak or storm issue can't wait.

Chimney & Fireplace Service Across Fort Lauderdale

Fort Lauderdale is a coastal city threaded with canals and waterways, and that geography shapes the chimney problems we see. Homes east of the Intracoastal, in neighborhoods like Las Olas Isles, Rio Vista, Harbor Beach, and Coral Ridge, sit closest to the Atlantic and take the brunt of salt air. Salt is hard on metal, so chimney caps, chase covers, and flashing in these areas tend to corrode and rust faster than they would a few miles inland. We often find caps that have rusted through or flashing that has lifted long before a homeowner expected to replace them.

Move inland toward Tamarac, Plantation, Sunrise, Lauderhill, and Davie, and the salt exposure eases, but the humidity and heavy rain do not. South Florida's moisture works its way into masonry through hairline cracks in the crown or worn mortar joints, and the daily heat-and-downpour cycle of our summers keeps that water moving. Left alone, it leads to spalling brick, a deteriorating crown, and staining inside the firebox. Tuckpointing, crown repair, and masonry sealing are some of the most common jobs we handle for inland Broward homes.

Then there's hurricane season, which runs June through November and defines chimney maintenance here more than anything else. Wind-driven rain doesn't just fall on a chimney, it's pushed sideways into every gap around the cap, crown, and flashing. The older homes near downtown and the historic Sailboat Bend area, along with the many flat-roofed and barrel-tile-roofed properties across the county, each have their own vulnerable points where water finds a way in. We tailor what we do to the home in front of us rather than applying a one-size checklist.
