Water Damage & Leak Detection for Chimneys

Moisture intrusion is a leading cause of chimney deterioration. We identify compromised flashing, cracked crowns, missing caps, and other vulnerabilities that allow water to damage masonry. Early detection helps property owners avoid expensive repairs.

Full-Service Moisture Assessment

We provide actionable reports and recommendations including sealing, flashing repairs, and crown restoration to prevent ongoing water damage.

Preserve Your Chimney with Moisture Intrusion Inspections

Chimneys exposed to the elements require regular inspection to prevent water damage. We evaluate mortar joints, bricks, flashing, and the flue liner for signs of leaks and saturation damage.

Solutions to Protect Your Chimney

We recommend effective repairs such as waterproofing applications, masonry restoration, and improved drainage systems to extend the life of your chimney.
