Your Local Miramar Chimney & Fireplace Team

One family-owned team for everything your chimney and fireplace need in Miramar.

Chimney Brothers Co is a family-owned team serving Miramar and the surrounding Broward County communities. Whether you have a traditional masonry chimney in one of the established neighborhoods on the eastern side of the city or a factory-built prefab unit in one of the newer developments toward the western edge, we handle the full range of work: chimney repair, sweeping and cleaning, inspections, leak and flashing repair, chimney caps, crown repair, tuckpointing and masonry, full rebuilds, and fireplace repair, service, and installation.

Miramar sits inland in southern Broward County, and that location shapes what we see on local rooftops. Long, humid summers and frequent afternoon thunderstorms put steady pressure on every joint, cap, and flashing detail on a chimney. Water is the number one enemy here, not cold weather, so much of our work centers on keeping moisture out and catching small problems before a season of storms turns them into bigger ones.

We give straightforward, upfront pricing and a free estimate before any work begins, so you know exactly what you are paying for and why. As a local Florida team, we take the time to explain what we find and what we would do about it, and we stand behind every job we complete.

Chimney & Fireplace Service Built for Miramar Homes

Miramar runs a long way from east to west, and the housing tells two different stories. The older eastern side, closer to the original part of the city around Miramar Parkway and State Road 7, tends to have masonry chimneys that have weathered decades of South Florida humidity. Out west, past Flamingo Road and I-75, the planned communities such as Silver Lakes, Sunset Lakes, Vizcaya, and Monarch Lakes lean heavily toward newer homes with prefab, factory-built fireplaces. Each type ages differently and needs a different eye, which is why we never apply a one-size-fits-all approach to a Miramar service call.

Because Miramar is an inland city with no coastline of its own, the wear we see comes more from rain and humidity than from the salt air that hammers homes closer to the beach in eastern Broward. The combination of intense summer humidity and near-daily wet-season thunderstorms works its way into masonry crowns, mortar joints, and flashing seams. On the older brick chimneys east of the turnpike we frequently find spalling, cracked crowns, and worn mortar that needs tuckpointing. On the newer prefab units common across the western Miramar communities, the chase covers, caps, and flashing details are usually where water sneaks in first.

Miramar families use their fireplaces differently than folks farther north, often only on the handful of genuinely cool evenings the season brings between December and February. That makes a quiet, sitting chimney an easy thing to forget, and an open or damaged cap an open invitation for moisture, debris, and animals through the long warm months. We help Miramar homeowners stay ahead of that with inspections and cleanings timed for the way fireplaces actually get used here, so the chimney is ready when one of those rare cool nights finally arrives.

If you notice water stains on the wall or ceiling near the fireplace, a musty or damp smell after a Miramar thunderstorm, white staining or flaking brick on the chimney exterior, crumbling mortar, a rusted or missing cap, or debris falling into the firebox, those are signs that moisture or wear has already taken hold. The sooner it is looked at, the smaller the fix. Call Chimney Brothers Co at (645) 224-9996 for a free estimate and same-day service when it is available.

Chimney & Fireplace FAQs for Miramar Homeowners

Do I really need chimney service in Miramar if it almost never gets cold?

Yes, and it is one of the most common things Miramar homeowners overlook. The risk here is not heavy winter use, it is moisture. Our humid summers and frequent thunderstorms work on a chimney year-round, whether you light a fire or not. A cracked crown, worn mortar, or a missing cap lets water into the structure during the long wet season, and that slow damage shows up as stains, spalling brick, and deterioration. A periodic inspection and cleaning protects the chimney during the many months it sits unused, so it is ready on the rare cool night you do want a fire.

My home in western Miramar has a prefab fireplace, not brick. Can you still help?

Absolutely. Many of the newer homes in communities like Silver Lakes, Sunset Lakes, Vizcaya, and Monarch Lakes have factory-built, prefab fireplaces, and we service them regularly. With prefab units the most common trouble spots are the chase cover, the cap, and the flashing where the chase meets the roof, since those are where Miramar rainwater tends to find its way in. We inspect, clean, repair, and replace caps and related components on prefab systems, and we also handle fireplace repair, service, and new fireplace installation.

Water is getting in around my chimney after heavy rain. What causes that in Miramar?

Given how often strong storms roll through Miramar in the wet season, leaks are one of the issues we see most. The usual culprits are failed or poorly sealed flashing where the chimney meets the roof, a cracked or worn masonry crown on older brick chimneys, a damaged or missing chimney cap, or, on prefab units, a rusted chase cover. We pinpoint the actual entry point rather than just sealing the surface, then handle the leak and flashing repair, crown repair, or cap replacement needed to keep it out. Catching a leak early in Miramar usually means a much smaller repair than waiting through another storm season.

How much does chimney repair cost in Miramar?

The most common repairs range from around $150 for a cap replacement to $5,000 or more for flue relining, with most single repairs falling in the $300–$1,500 range in Florida. What a specific Miramar job costs comes down to chimney height, roof access and pitch, and the condition of the crown and flashing, so we give a free on-site estimate with upfront pricing before any work begins. See the full cost breakdown.

What chimney and fireplace services do you offer in Miramar?

We cover the full range for both masonry and prefab systems: chimney repair, chimney sweep and cleaning, chimney inspection, leak and flashing repair, chimney caps, crown repair, full chimney rebuilds, tuckpointing and masonry work, and fireplace repair, service, and installation. On Miramar's older eastern-side masonry chimneys we often do tuckpointing, crown repair, and rebuilds, while on the newer prefab fireplaces out west we focus more on caps, chase covers, flashing, and fireplace service. Whatever your home has, we can take a look and recommend the right approach.

Do you offer free estimates?

Yes — every job starts with a free, no-obligation on-site estimate and upfront pricing. No trip charge and no hidden fees.

How long does a typical chimney repair take?

It depends on the work. A sweep or inspection is usually done in one visit; a crown reseal, cap, or flashing repair is often same-day; a partial or full rebuild can take longer. We give you a clear timeframe with your estimate.

Do you work on prefab (factory-built) fireplaces too, or only masonry?

Both. We service traditional masonry chimneys and fireboxes as well as prefabricated, factory-built fireplace systems — including wood-burning and gas units.

My chimney failed a home inspection — can you help before closing?

Yes, that's one of the most common reasons people call us. We assess exactly what was flagged, explain what's actually needed, and give upfront pricing so you can move forward with your sale.

Do you clean up after the work?

Always. We protect the work area, contain soot and debris, and leave your home as clean as we found it — that's part of the job, not an extra.

How do I book or get a quote?

Call (645) 224-9996 or fill out the short form on this page. Same-day service is often available for urgent issues like an active leak.

How tall does a chimney have to be above the roof?

Chimneys shall extend not less than 2 feet higher than any portion of a building within 10 feet, but shall be not less than 3 feet above the highest point where the chimney passes through the roof. That is the exact wording of IRC section R1003.9, adopted verbatim as R1003.9 of the Florida Building Code, Residential. It is commonly called the 3-2-10 rule, and both conditions must be met at once, so whichever produces the greater height controls. The 10-foot measurement is horizontal and includes ridges, dormers, adjacent walls and nearby structures.

How does Florida's humidity affect a chimney?

Every county in Florida carries a warm-humid designation under Table R301.1 of the Florida Building Code, Energy Conservation, and Broward, Collier, Hendry, Lee, Miami-Dade, Monroe and Palm Beach counties are Climate Zone 1A, the hottest and most humid zone in the continental United States, with the rest of the state in Zone 2A. Sustained high humidity keeps masonry damp, feeds mold and mildew inside a cold unused flue, and keeps steel components wet enough to corrode without any rain event. It also means the classic northern failure mode, freeze-thaw spalling, is largely absent here. In Florida the masonry damage mechanism is standing moisture, salt and sulfate attack rather than ice expansion.

Chimney Conditions in Miramar, Broward County

Miramar began in the mid-1950s, when A.L. Mailman built 56 concrete houses with flat roofs; the city incorporated in May 1955. That eastern end, including Historic Miramar, Miramar Isles and Miramar Tropical, is one-story concrete-block ranch and bungalow stock with flat and low-slope roofs. The west is much newer: the citywide median year built is about 1996, and roughly a third of all homes went up between 2000 and 2009 in gated subdivisions with Spanish and Mediterranean styling and concrete tile roofs. About 62 percent of the roughly 46,000 units are detached houses. Flat roofs need counterflashing cut into block or stucco; tile roofs need pan and step details rebuilt properly.

Miramar sits inland in southern Broward, west of the coastline, and low: elevation is about 7 feet, and a 2017 study ranked it fifth nationally for coastal flood exposure, with 93,000 residents inside FEMA's coastal floodplain. Broward averages roughly 63 inches of rain a year, most of it June through September. The county falls inside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so caps, flashing and rooftop components need HVHZ product approval. Wilma in 2005 was the worst storm to hit Broward since 1950.
