Chimney leak repair explained for Fairvilla homeowners
A closer look at the work, from our family-owned crew serving Fairvilla.
A leak that started after roof work
When a chimney starts leaking soon after a new roof, the flashing is the first suspect. Old counterflashing may have been reused, sealed over or left short of the new roof covering. At your Fairvilla home we inspect how the new roofing meets the chimney and write up what we find. If the roof work is still under the roofer's warranty, those notes help you take it back to them. We look for counterflashing that was bent up and pressed back down, or new flashing laid over old rusted metal.
Cracks in a stucco chimney
Stucco sheds most rain, but cracks in it let water reach the structure behind, where it can spread unseen. Hollow spots, bulges and stains below the cracks are signs water has been getting in. At your Fairvilla home we tap and inspect the stucco surface, mark the areas that sound hollow and explain whether patching, a partial repair or a larger stucco repair is the right response. Fine surface cracks are sealed differently from open ones, and the estimate explains which method each area needs.
Watching the first storms after the repair
Old stains can stay visible after a leak is fixed, so the true test is whether fresh water appears. After the repair at your Fairvilla home, check the spot during and after the next few storms. A dry edge that stays inside the pencil line means the water has stopped. If you see new moisture, tell us right away with the timing and location, and we will come back to look. A repair that holds through a few heavy storms has done its job.

Before your chimney leak repair in Fairvilla
If your question is not here, our Fairvilla team is a phone call away.
Do you repair the stain on my ceiling?
Our repair stops the water at the chimney. We note the interior damage on the estimate so you can plan drywall and paint once everything has dried, which avoids doing that work twice.
Do you remove old patches before repairing?
When they hide cracks or would stop new material from bonding, yes. Removal is listed on the estimate so you know why it is needed.
