Chimney Repair & Weatherproofing

A cap is missing, damaged, loose, or no longer keeps rain and wildlife out.

The crown is cracked, spalled, or holding water around the flue opening.

A metal chase cover is rusting, leaking, or separating around a factory-built chimney.

Water marks or roof leakage appear where the chimney meets the roof.

Mortar joints are open, crumbly, or allowing moisture into the masonry.

Individual bricks are cracked, loose, or deteriorating at the chimney exterior.

A masonry chimney needs a moisture-management review after repairs or recurring water entry.

Deterioration is limited to part of the masonry stack, crown, or upper courses.

The stack has broad structural deterioration or cannot be repaired safely in isolated sections.
