"My home has a chimney that was unsafe to use (cracked masonry liner). I dreaded the time and cost of a tear down and replacement. I contacted "Shamrock Chimney" and scheduled an appointment with their lead technician "Tony". He suggested a less costly and safer alternative (steel liner and a resealing of the outer brickwork. The work was performed over a two-day period. I am fully satisfied with the results. One thing I really apricate is the communication during the project. The "front office" would let me know by either phone or email when the project would start, and then Tony and would give me updates. All and all the whole process went smoothly. Also, this was my first time with "Angi", I hope to use their services again in the future."

"To keep it brief they put in the piers under the foundation , great. they have an engineer bless what they did. Meantime my flashing which was supposed to be foxed was had problems which they partially addressed when I had them back but they ignore me and are always outta town when I call with problems (since they now have my money, it sems to me). They told me I needed only very little on the iinside of the chimnety but they don't do that kind of work. Turns out , best case is $800 on the inside but the chimney guys will not guarantee the work until I address the excessive sway (2 inches) in my chimney. Bedrock looked at it and they say...there is n excessive sway. Though they acknowledge that we may need some straps to be installed between the mortar totabilize the chimney, they don't get back to me to address anything. They say each time they will call in a few days and I wait a month and then I call them and get the same thing. So their big selling point that they will fix the problem even if it costs more than the estimate ....don't believe it because they just tell you that everything is great and you should be satisfied. Same with my low spot in my kitchen. When what they did , did not address the problem i complained about , it came out that they understood my concern as some other problem that also existed but that my problem was not structural. Unfortunataely their analysis of my problem was not so indepth before they were commisioned to do the work. Then they spent a day doing makeshift after thoughts to adress it and finally told me it's just the sub par way my floor was installed at construction. I should have been told that before they accepted that add on of thejob. Actually, I ight consider hiring them again if they weren't blowing me off about my disatisfaction with the job I spent $9200 for overall. As it stands I am hiring someone else to finish what they refuse to address. If they read this and handle up I will consider retracting this. Also , they worked on my hearth but the motar doesn't match and I had to tell the laborer they had do the masonry to push a brick in that he was gonna leave sticking waty out. Same guy that doesn't know how t do the flashing that they reassured me at the begining that they would fix. "

Not all cracks in brick indicate foundation problems. For instance, small hairline cracks can occur as a new construction settles. However, larger cracks are often a sign of a more severe issue. Indicators of a potential foundation problem include long horizontal cracks, "stair-step" cracks, vertical cracks that appear indoors, or any crack that widens at the top. Other signs of structural damage to look for are uneven floors and doors or windows that stick. These issues could be caused by problems with the soil beneath the home or an overgrown tree.
Yes, it is essential to prime or seal a brick fireplace before painting. Brick is a porous and highly absorbent material, so without a primer, paint can seep into the surface, resulting in uneven coverage and allowing the natural brick color to show through. To avoid this, apply one or two coats of a masonry primer. The primer will seal the brick and provide a smooth, uniform layer for the paint to adhere to. Ensure the primer is completely dry before applying the topcoat of paint.
It is possible, albeit a lot slower, to break up a rock using water. You would do this by freezing and thawing the water. You could create some initial holes or cracks in the rock, then pour water into the cracks or holes and allow them to freeze (so it's best to do this in winter or in colder climates). Since water expands when it freezes, this puts pressure on the inside of the rock and causes it to crack. You could continue to pour more water in and let it freeze to continue to break up the rock.
Modern brick homes have a brick facade over standard framing and sheathing, so the brick offers minimal added structural stability. A home with traditional brick construction is more durable than a stick-built home, as the double-layer brick walls and rebar resist higher lateral wind loads and support heavier loads up top, as well.
For most brick cleaning jobs, including fireplace bricks, use a masonry sponge and a gentle cleaner. A simple solution of equal parts water and vinegar, or a few drops of dish soap in a bowl of water, can effectively remove grime. For tougher stains, you can use a dedicated masonry or fireplace cleaner. It is crucial to wet the bricks thoroughly with water before applying any cleaning solution to prevent the brick from absorbing it, and to rinse the surface completely afterward. Harsher cleaners containing bleach or ammonia should only be used as a last resort, and they should never be mixed together.
