Chimney leak repair explained for Roosevelt Park homeowners
Here is how our local team works through a chimney leak at your Roosevelt Park home.
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 Roosevelt Park 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.
A stain on the wall beside the chimney breast
A damp or discolored patch on the wall next to the chimney breast often means water is running down the outside of the masonry inside the house, usually from the roof junction above. It can also come from a crack in the brick that lets water pass through the wall. When a chimney in Roosevelt Park shows this symptom, we inspect the flashing and the upper brick first, then the attic, to see which path matches the stain. Paint that bubbles on that wall, or plaster that sounds hollow, helps show how far the water has spread.
A gap at the storm collar
Where a metal chimney pipe comes up through the chase cover, a storm collar turns water away from that joint. One manufacturer's instructions call for the collar to be sealed where it meets the pipe. When the collar slips or the seal cracks at your Roosevelt Park home, rain runs straight down the outside of the pipe and inside the chase. Resealing or replacing the collar is a small repair with a large effect. We also check that the pipe is not caulked solid to the chase top collar, which one maker's manual advises against.

Yes. We inspect the chimney, find the likely entry point and give you a written estimate for the repair at no charge. You decide whether to go ahead.
