The chimney is torn down to the flashing area near the roofline and rebuilt with new brick and mortar. In most instances the firebox, hearth and smoke chamber do not have to be removed. Total rebuilds are necessary when chimney is leaning, no longer used, has severe mortar deterioration or severe spalling.
