What goes into a leak repair in Sky Lake

Parts of the job our leak specialists explain to homeowners in Sky Lake before any repair.

Leaks in a chimney you never use

A fireplace that is never lit still has a chimney standing in the rain. Unused flues are often uncapped, their dampers left rusting and their crowns forgotten, so they can leak for years unnoticed. If the fireplace at your Sky Lake home is decorative or retired, the leak repair may be as simple as capping and sealing the top properly. We explain that option alongside a full repair. If you might use the fireplace again someday, we explain how to close it so it can be reopened later.

A cap that no longer keeps rain out

Caps rust, bend and work loose. A lid pushed off center, holes rusted through the top or a cap sized for a different flue can all let rain reach the opening it was meant to cover. Up on the roof in Sky Lake, we check the lid, the mounting and the fit, then explain whether a repair or a new cap is the better value. Replacement caps are quoted with the size and metal named. Stainless steel and copper are both common choices, and we explain the difference in plain terms.

Base flashing where the roof meets the brick

Base flashing is the metal that turns up the chimney face from the roof surface. Brick Industry Association guidance shows it rising at least four inches up the chimney and running along the roof beneath the roofing material. When the base flashing is short, torn or rusted through at your Sky Lake home, water gets behind it at the first heavy rain. We inspect each face and corner and explain what needs replacing. Base flashing tucked correctly under the roofing can sometimes stay, with only the counterflashing replaced.

Chimney leak questions from Sky Lake

Still deciding? These answers help, and the leak inspection in Sky Lake is free.

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.

Can you fix a leak in a framed chimney chase?

Yes. Leaks in framed chimneys often start at a rusted chase cover or a loose storm collar. We inspect both, along with the chase siding, and quote each part separately.
