Miami Springs is an unusual and characterful town founded by aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss, known for its Pueblo Revival and Mission-style architecture — adobe-look homes with a Southwestern flavor rarely seen in South Florida. That distinctive older housing stock means genuine masonry chimneys and fireplaces on homes with real architectural character.
The historic masonry is the focus of the work here. These older homes have chimneys that have weathered decades of humidity, and the stucco-and-masonry construction needs appropriate, careful repair. Near the airport and inland from the immediate coast, salt is less of a factor than humidity, seasonal rain, and the ordinary aging of older masonry — mortar erosion, crown wear, and caps that have rusted over time.

Questions from Miami Springs homeowners
Our Miami Springs home has that Pueblo-style architecture — anything special about the chimney?
The distinctive stucco-and-masonry construction of these homes needs repair methods and mortar matched to it, rather than a generic modern approach that can harm older masonry. Otherwise the concerns are the usual ones for an older chimney — worn mortar, a weathered crown, an aging cap. We repair sympathetically so the work fits the character of these unique homes.
Not sure what your chimney needs? That’s normal — most people call describing a symptom, not a diagnosis. Tell us what you’re seeing, smelling or hearing, and we’ll help you figure out the next step. Call anytime, 24/7 at 561-652-9489.
