Getting chimney sealing right on Lake Nona homes
Straight answers about chimney sealing in Lake Nona, from the people who do the work.
Matching a new coat to the old one
On a chimney treated in the past, any new product has to work with what is already in the masonry. Penetrants are typically incompatible with existing film-forming coatings, and mixing chemistries can cause clouding.
This is why we keep product records and ask for yours. If the earlier treatment was a siloxane penetrant, a compatible fresh coat may be straightforward. If no one knows what was used, we test a small area before committing to the whole chimney, and we tell you plainly if the result is not good enough.
Our workmanship warranty and the product's coverage
Two kinds of coverage apply to chimney waterproofing. The product maker covers its product under its own terms and conditions, and our workmanship warranty covers the application we perform, from prep to coverage to cleanup.
We keep those separate on your paperwork so you know who to call about what. If a face we treated was missed or the application was not done the way we agreed, that is ours to fix. Keep the estimate, the product details and the invoice together, and call our local team with any question.
Why chimney waterproofing is not a weekend project
A can of sealer and a garden sprayer look like a simple fix. On a chimney, the job involves roof access, product on your hands and your ladder, a weather window, protection for glass and roofing and the question of whether the masonry is ready at all.
The bigger risk is doing it in the wrong order. Sealing over open joints or a failing coating can make matters worse. Our family-owned crew does this work regularly, and the free inspection tells you whether the chimney needs it before anyone climbs up.
Damp around the chimney in the attic
Damp framing or stains beside the chimney in the attic usually point to water at the roof line. That is most often flashing or the joint between the chimney and the roof, not the brick faces above.
We check the attic side and the roof side together. If the flashing or counterflashing is the problem, it is a flashing repair. If the brick above the roof is soaking up water and feeding it down inside, a repellent may be part of the answer. You get the reasoning, not just a recommendation.

Waterproofing answers for Lake Nona homeowners
If your question is not here, our Lake Nona team is a phone call away.
Will you test the product on my chimney first?
Yes. Brick and mortar vary, so product makers and masonry guidance recommend a test area, and the Brick Industry Association suggests at least ten square feet. We pick a face you can see, let the test cure and look at the finish and the way water behaves on it before treating anything else.
How long does a water repellent last?
Not forever, and there is no fixed schedule. Life depends on the product, the exposure and the brick, and extra coats put on too early can make the masonry less breathable. We suggest watching whether rain still beads on the treated faces, and the product record we leave makes the next coat an easy call.
