Where Chimney Leaks Come From
- Cracked or missing chimney crown
- Missing or damaged chimney cap
- Failed or loose flashing at the roofline
- Porous brick and cracked mortar joints
- Condensation inside an unlined or damaged flue
Don't Wait on a Leak
A leaking chimney rarely fixes itself. Water damages the masonry, rots the framing around the chimney, ruins ceilings and drywall, and can lead to mold. The longer it goes, the bigger the repair.
How We Fix It
We inspect the chimney top to bottom, photograph the problem areas, and show you exactly where the water is coming from. Then we give you a free written estimate to fix the source — not just patch the symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it the roof or the chimney?
Leaks around a chimney are very often the chimney — the crown, cap, flashing or masonry. We check all of them and show you photos so you know for sure.
Can you fix a leak in winter?
Many leak repairs, like caps and flashing, can be done in cold weather. Some masonry work needs warmer temperatures; we'll tell you what can be done now and what should wait.
