Leak Repair, Suffolk CountyYour Local Chimney Leak Repair Crew in Suffolk County, NY
The South Shore faces water as well as cold, and a low-lying coastal geography means Suffolk chimneys take a lot of wind-driven rain. Leaks usually start where the chimney meets the roof, at a crown that has split or through brick that has gone porous. The ceiling stain inside rarely lines up with the entry point. Our local crew starts on the roof, checks each likely path and fixes the one that is actually letting water in, whether that means new flashing, a rebuilt crown or a cap that keeps rain out of the flue.

Leak Repair for Suffolk County Homes
Many homes and businesses in Babylon Village had major flood and wind damage from Hurricane Sandy in October 2012. After a storm like that, flashing and caps are often loosened even where the house looks fine from the street, and those are the first spots we check for leaks.
Lindenhurst is an incorporated village on the Great South Bay. Chimneys near open water take driven rain on the side facing the bay, and that face is where flashing and mortar joints tend to fail first.
We fix chimney leaks in Babylon, Lindenhurst, Bay Shore, Patchogue and Brentwood.
