How Do We Repair Your Chimney Leak?

Wondering how to fix a leaky chimney? Commonly, we deal with leaks originating from a variety of places, including the flashing, the crown or chase cover, the chimney cap, and the masonry.

  • Chimney Flashing Repair: Metal chimney flashing seals the chimney base and roofline and keeps water out of this vulnerable area. When flashing fails, many people may think they have a roof leak – when really, they simply need to have their chimney flashing repaired or sealed using FlashSeal.
  • Chimney Crown Repair & Rebuilds: The crown is a cement section that seals off the top of a masonry chimney. Although a good crown will be made of cement and built to send way away from the sides of your chimney, many crowns are poorly built and quickly wear through. If cracks or poor construction have rendered your crown ineffective at keeping moisture out, we can help.
  • Chimney Caps, Rain Pans & Custom Chase Covers: Without caps and covers, water has a direct path into your chimney, which is why we always urge our customers to invest in quality chimney caps and chase covers. Weak metals will wear through fast, but a quality stainless steel or copper cap or chase cover will do the trick.
  • Masonry Waterproofing: Many people don’t realize it, but your masonry is very absorbent and can also allow moisture into your chimney. Both brick and mortar are porous materials – and the more damaged and worn they get over time, the more moisture they’ll allow in. Fortunately, we can help. We’ll repair masonry damage, then waterproof your chimney for years of moisture protection.
