Leaning Chimney Repair
Homeowners are rightfully concerned when they realize that their chimney is leaning and separating away from the home. This indicates a serious foundational or structural hazard that needs to be addressed right away. There can be a number of reasons for a chimney to lean. Common causes are shifting soil, poor foundation construction, and inadequate water drainage. If the ground beneath your chimney is inadequate and causes the chimney to lean, it is likely that the entire home may be bearing more weight on the soil than it can properly hold. Warning signs that you should not ignore include cracks in the chimney, spaces or gaps between the home and the chimney, and obvious visible leaning either toward or away from the house. When a foundation needs to be repaired, a leaning chimney is a red flag. Read More ⇒

At Anglin’s Foundation & Masonry Repairs our motto is, “We fix it for life the first time.” These days it is hard to find a guarantee on most things. Whether it’s your expensive cell phone, car repair, or a brand new pair of shoes – most things just aren’t guaranteed like they used to be.

For the last 85 years we have guaranteed the service and work that we provide our customers, and we have no intention of taking that guarantee away. Our reputation rests upon the quality of work that we provide, and we refuse to provide anything less than the very best.
Here at Anglin’s Foundation & Masonry Repairs we offer a wide variety of services to customers in the greater Atlanta area. We repair leaning and falling chimneys, cracked basement walls, compromised foundations, front steps that are separating from the home, back porches and decks that are not stable, falling retaining walls, and many more residential and commercial issues. With our years of experience we know that plumb, straight, and level are the essential necessities for all structures. It is unfortunate, but many builders do not take the time to thoroughly stabilize the foundation of a home or its surrounding structures. That, on top of the temperamental soil of the south, is a dangerous combination that can compromise the integrity of an entire home.

Chimney Repairs
Leaning chimneys are a very common problem in residential areas. Many people do not want to take the time or spend the money to have the issue of a leaning chimney corrected, but not doing so can cause extreme damage to the home and can also cause death of loved ones and pets. At Anglin’s Foundation & Masonry Repairs, we offer expert restoration in order to properly align chimneys to the house and eliminate threats of the chimney falling.
Chimneys typically lean one of two ways: Away from the house or Over/On Top of the house or roof. Both of these issues need immediate repair as they can cause serious trouble for the homeowner and residents inside. A chimney that is leaning away from the house will eventually lose its support and crash down into the yard or neighbor’s yard. It can crash at any time without warning, and anything that is below or within close proximity will be injured or killed. For parents, this can be a huge eye-opener and let them understand the extreme importance of having this issue corrected as soon as possible.
A chimney that is leaning over or on top of a roof indicates that there is a serious structural problem. This issue should also be addressed as soon as possible because a chimney that falls into a house can cause serious injury or death. A falling chimney can kill people or pets and destroy a home permanently.
