Chimneys take the full force of the weather year-round and the mortar, lead flashing, and rendering that keep them watertight don't last forever. Cracked pointing, failed lead step flashing, and loose pots are among the most frequent causes of damp inside homes. We identify the exact source of any chimney-related leak and fix it permanently.
