Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our Chimney Leak Detection & Repair

What are common signs of a chimney leak?

Common signs include water stains on walls or ceilings near the chimney, damp odors, rusted firebox or damper parts, water or condensation in the firebox, white staining (efflorescence) on chimney exterior, or deteriorated mortar joints. You might also notice dripping sounds during rainfall.

What causes chimney leaks?

Chimney leaks are typically caused by damaged chimney crowns or caps, deteriorated flashing where the chimney meets the roof, cracked masonry, damaged or missing mortar joints, or improper waterproofing. Heavy rain, snow, and freeze-thaw cycles can all contribute to water infiltration over time.

How do you locate the source of a chimney leak?

Our technicians use a systematic approach including visual inspection, moisture meters, and sometimes water testing to pinpoint leak sources. We examine the chimney from top to bottom, including the crown, cap, flashing, masonry, and interior components to identify all potential entry points.

Is waterproofing necessary for all chimneys?

Yes, we recommend waterproofing for all masonry chimneys. Unlike other masonry structures, chimneys are particularly vulnerable to water damage due to their exposure and the way they're constructed. Quality chimney waterproofing solutions are vapor-permeable, allowing the chimney to 'breathe' while repelling water.

How long does chimney waterproofing last?

Professional chimney waterproofing typically lasts between 5-10 years, depending on your climate, exposure to elements, and the quality of the waterproofing material used. Chimney Concepts uses only high-quality, long-lasting waterproofing products designed specifically for chimney application.
