​
The Anatomy of a Leaky Fireplace​
​
Before we dive into our fireplace leak repair service, let's take a quick look at what causes a leaky fireplace. The most common culprit is a damaged chimney crown, which is the cement or masonry layer that covers the top of your chimney. A damaged crown can allow water to seep into the chimney structure and eventually make its way into your home.
​
Another common cause of fireplace leaks is damaged flashing, which is the metal strip that seals the gap between your chimney and the roof. If the flashing is damaged or improperly installed, water can enter your home through the gap.
​
And of course, there's always the possibility of a crack in your chimney or a damaged chimney liner, both of which can allow water to infiltrate your fireplace and damage your home.
