Common Problem
Chimney Leaking
Water in the fireplace, stains near the chimney, or a damp smell after rain all point to a chimney leak. The source can be the cap, crown, flashing, masonry, or a combination. We find the actual entry point before recommending repairs.
A leak like this often starts at worn flashing where the chimney meets the roof.
