Water is the number one enemy of any chimney. Green Home Services finds and fixes chimney leaks across San Antonio and Austin, repairing brick and mortar and waterproofing your masonry to stop damage at the source.
A leaking chimney can stem from a cracked crown, failed flashing, a missing cap, or porous, damaged masonry. We inspect the crown, flashing, cap, and brickwork to pinpoint exactly where water is getting in, then fix the cause, repairing spalled brick, re-pointing mortar, and applying a breathable waterproof sealant that repels water while letting the chimney dry.
Water is the single most destructive force a chimney faces. It enters through cracked crowns, failed flashing, missing caps, and porous brick, then works its way into the masonry, where the freeze-and-thaw cycle steadily breaks it apart. Left unaddressed, a chimney leak spalls brick, erodes mortar, rusts internal components, stains ceilings and walls, and can even lead to structural damage and interior water problems. Because the damage compounds over time, resolving a leak early saves significant money and preserves the chimney. Professional leak resolution means finding the true source, whether crown, flashing, cap, or masonry, repairing the brick and mortar, and waterproofing the structure so it sheds water instead of absorbing it.
