What goes into a leak repair in Corner Lake
What our pros check and why, on leak repairs across Corner Lake.
When the water comes from inside the flue
Not every drip is rain. Burning fuel combines hydrogen with oxygen to form water vapor, and in a flue that runs cool or is much larger than the appliance needs, that vapor can condense and run down the walls. The result can look just like a leak. When your Corner Lake chimney drips on dry days or mostly while an appliance runs, we check the flue size and lining before blaming the roof. In that case the answer is usually a properly sized liner rather than a roof repair.
Old fastener holes in the brick
Antenna brackets, satellite mounts and old straps were often bolted directly into chimney brick. When they were removed, the holes often stayed open. Each one can let water into the masonry. We check your Corner Lake chimney for old hardware and empty holes, remove anything no longer needed and seal the openings as part of the leak repair. If a mount is still in use, we can suggest a spot that keeps the chimney sealed. Sealed holes are checked again during a water test if one is run.
A rusted chase cover on a framed chimney
Framed chimneys are closed at the top by a metal chase cover, and a rusted one is a frequent source of water near a factory-built fireplace. Pinholes open where rain has sat on the metal, and water then drips inside the chase. For a chase in Corner Lake, we check the cover for rust, dents and loose edges and explain whether a new cover, measured to the chase, is the right fix. A new cover is made to the outside size of the chase with a raised collar and a drip edge, so water leaves every side.

What people in Corner Lake ask about chimney leaks
Short answers from our chimney team in Corner Lake. Call for anything not covered here.
What can I do until you arrive?
Catch the water, move rugs and furniture away and stay off the roof. If water is near lights or outlets, switch off that circuit if you can do so safely.
Will you need to rebuild my chimney?
Rarely. Most leaks come from a specific part that can be repaired. A rebuild of the top is recommended only when the brick is too loose or damaged to hold new flashing or a new crown.
