Leak Repair, Westchester CountyChimney Leak Repair in Westchester County, NY From Your Local Crew
A water stain near the chimney in a Westchester house usually means melting snow or driven rain is getting past the flashing, the crown or the brick itself. Inland homes see more snow than the city, and the coast gets strong wind, so leaks here come from both directions. Water that gets into a chimney can run along the masonry and surface a room away. Our local crew traces it from the roof, fixes the actual source and checks the cap so rain is not running straight down the flue as well.

Leak Repair for Westchester County Homes
Brownstones, townhomes and red-brick apartment buildings define the urban southwestern part of New Rochelle. Where a lower roof meets a taller neighbor, the joint at the chimney is a common leak point that needs proper counter-flashing.
Winds in Westchester can be heavy, especially by the coast, and in January coastal areas such as New Rochelle stay a few degrees warmer than inland towns. On the shore, leaks come mostly from driven rain, while inland ones more often start with snow melt against the chimney.
We stop chimney leaks in New Rochelle, Pelham, Mount Vernon, Yonkers and Tarrytown.
