Chimney work built for Forest Hills homes
Forest Hills is one of Tampa's older established neighborhoods, with much of its housing dating to the 1950s and 60s. The chimneys here are genuine masonry, and at sixty-plus years they're well into the age where the crown, mortar, and liner need real attention.
The work is preservation-minded: keep the original brick sound and watertight, evaluate aging liners, and address the water damage that decades of Florida rain leave behind.
A Forest Hills chimney is typically older masonry that's done long service. Crowns crack, mortar opens, and clay liners reach the point where they need a camera evaluation — all standard for the era, all repairable.
Common Forest Hills chimney concerns
Sixty-year-old crowns and mortar
Long past first service life, with decades of water intrusion behind them.
Aging clay liners
Original tile liners of this era need a camera check before the fireplace is used.
Spalling brick
Water that's soaked into old masonry pops the brick face; caught early it's a spot repair, not a rebuild.
