If you notice water running down the flue or leaks in the attic, these are telltale signs that your chimney may have underlying problems. It’s important not to ignore these signs, as doing so can lead to further damage to your chimney.

While chimneys come in various shapes and sizes, the majority of them, even newer ones, are still constructed using traditional methods with brick and mortar masonry. While advancements have been made in chimney design and safety, the fundamentals of chimney construction have remained largely unchanged over the past few centuries. As a result, the porous nature of the brick and mortar material can lead to water absorption, which gradually degrades the masonry. Protecting your chimney against the elements is crucial to maintaining the integrity of your home.
