Tracing and fixing chimney leaks in Lake Davis/Greenwood
A closer look at the work, from our family-owned crew serving Lake Davis/Greenwood.
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 Lake Davis/Greenwood 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.
Flaking brick faces and chimney leaks
Brick faces that flake or break away expose the softer inside of the brick, which drinks water readily. Spalling tends to spread once it starts, and each damaged brick becomes another way in for rain. We check which courses of your Lake Davis/Greenwood chimney are affected and explain whether individual bricks can be replaced or whether the top section needs rebuilding before the leak can be stopped. Replacement brick is chosen to match the size and color as closely as possible.
Tar and roofing cement smeared over the flashing
Thick roofing cement smeared over flashing is usually a sign of a quick fix. It may stop a leak for a season, then crack as it dries and let water back in, while hiding the real condition of the metal underneath. On a chimney in Lake Davis/Greenwood covered in patches, we explain what the patches are hiding and whether the flashing below can be salvaged or needs replacing. Removing the tar lets us see whether the metal underneath is sound or rusted through.
