A rough Lantana smoke shelf is masonry work, not a flue sweep. Free inspection, then a written scope.
Parging a Lantana smoke chamber
Lantana's eastern waterfront, including Hypoluxo Island, sits between the Intracoastal and the Atlantic just across the Ocean Avenue bridge, so salt-laden air there accelerates corrosion of metal chimney caps, dampers, and flashing on the town's aging block homes.

This page is for cracked, stepped, or unparged smoke-chamber masonry above a Ocean Breeze firebox — the throat and smoke shelf, not a wood-flue sweep. Materials and exclusions are written for the system found at that address, then you decide whether to authorize work.
