Water can enter around a cracked crown, damaged flashing, an absent or poorly fitted cap, open mortar joints, or a failing chase cover on a prefab system. The visible stain does not always identify the entry point, so the first step is to look at the components above and around it.

The cap covers the flue opening, the crown sheds water from the top of a masonry chimney, and flashing seals the joint where the chimney meets the roof. Damage in any of those areas can let water in. The right repair depends on where the water is entering and the condition of the surrounding masonry or chase.

The scope depends on the damaged component, chimney height and access, materials, how much masonry is affected, and whether the liner, crown, flashing, cap, or firebox is involved. A technician can look at the property and give you a free estimate for the proposed work.

Soot, creosote, or odor concerns can point toward sweeping, while loose brick, missing mortar, water stains, crown cracks, or a damaged cap can point toward repair. If you are not sure, describe what you see when you call or use the estimate form.
