Chimney Rebuild Above Roofline in Kerrville, TX
Above the roofline is where a masonry stack fails first — it takes weather on all four sides with no house behind it holding heat. When the brick above the flashing line is spalling, the joints have washed out, and repointing would only be fresh mortar in a failing wall, the top comes down to sound masonry and gets rebuilt from there. We take it down course by course, salvage brick where the face is still good, and lay back up on the existing base with matched brick and the correct mortar type, then set new step and counter-flashing and pour a new crown as part of the same work. Price moves with stack height, brick match, and roof access — a steep composition roof is not a walkable one. Serving Kerrville (2 ZIP codes, 24k residents) and surrounding neighborhoods with same-week scheduling.
