Our approach to chimney leaks in Clarcona
The points below shape the repair we recommend in Clarcona, and each one shows up in your estimate.
A leak that keeps coming back
If your chimney has been patched more than once and still leaks, the repairs have probably been treating the stain instead of the source. Tell us what was done before and when the leak returned. At your Clarcona home we look at the earlier repairs, then check the paths they did not address. The estimate explains why the new repair targets a different part, so you are not paying for the same patch twice. Recurring leaks often come from more than one path, and we check for that before quoting a single fix.
When a sealer is the wrong answer
It is tempting to hope one coat of sealer will stop every chimney leak. It will not close an open crack, replace missing flashing, cap an open flue or reshape a flat crown. If someone has already sprayed your Clarcona chimney and it still leaks, that is a strong hint the water is coming through an opening rather than through the brick. We find that opening and fix it directly. We can also tell you whether the old sealer needs removing first, since some products keep new mortar from bonding.
Soft roof decking around the chimney
A leak that has run for a long time can soften the plywood deck around the chimney. When a spot feels spongy underfoot or the attic shows dark, delaminating wood, the deck needs attention before new flashing goes on. At your Clarcona home we note the extent of the soft decking and list its repair separately, since it may call for a roofer. Leaving soft decking under new flashing puts the new work at risk, which is why we raise it early.

Can you close off a chimney we never use?
