Local Conditions

Trees over the roof and the crown

If trees hang over your roof in Chiefland, leaves and needles gather on the chimney crown and behind the chimney, holding rain against the concrete and the flashing long after a shower passes. Our pros clear the debris, check the crown and back flashing underneath it, and fix the cracks and gaps the trapped water has been working on. A cap with a sloped lid also keeps leaves from settling on top.

Our Process

Tracking a leak down in Chiefland

Stop the water

If it's pouring in, a temporary cover goes over the flue top until the repair day.
Find the entry

Everything is checked from the cap down, with a water test where the source isn't obvious.
Fix it for good

The crown, cap, flashing or joints get the lasting repair, given a written price first.
Check what got wet

Firebox, attic and walls get a final look, and you'll hear who repairs what, and when.

White bloom as the chimney dries

As a wet chimney dries out after a leak repair, white powdery deposits can bloom on the brick, inside and out. That's salt carried to the surface by the water leaving the masonry, and it's a normal part of drying.

A stiff dry brush takes most of it off. If it keeps coming back months after the repair, water is still getting in somewhere, and our pros will come back to look. Cleaning it with harsh acid can damage brick, so it's worth asking before you try anything stronger than a brush and water. Bloom that fades over a few months is the chimney drying, which is what you want to see.

Leaks that begin after a new roof

Leaking that begins after a reroof points to the flashing. Old base pieces reused and bent out of shape, step flashing missing from a few courses, or counter flashing that no longer laps over the new roofing are what our pros look for.

Where the new roofing meets the chimney is where our pros start, and they fix the chimney side, including counter flashing set into the mortar. If the roofing around the chimney needs adjusting, your roofer handles that part, and the quote says so. Working it out together is faster than a back-and-forth between contractors. The sooner it's caught, the less the new roof deck soaks up.

Keeping track of a stain

A pencil line around the edge of a ceiling or wall stain, with the date written beside it, tells you a lot. After the next rain, a stain that has crept past the line means an active leak. One that stays put may be old or drying.

It also helps our specialists. Knowing which storms made it grow, and which didn't, points to the entry, especially for leaks that show only in wind from one direction. Photos of the stain after each storm are just as useful. Bring what you've noted to the inspection, and it'll shorten the search. Note which rooms and which storms, too.

We do. The repair comes with our workmanship warranty, and your quote records what was fixed and where. If that spot lets water in again, call us and our pros will come back to look. Arrange a free leak inspection in Chiefland at (352) 675-6366.
