Leak Repair, Lehigh CountyChimney Leak Repair From Your Local Crew in Lehigh County, PA
Snow piles up behind Lehigh County chimneys all winter, then melts slowly into any gap it can find, and summer storms drive rain into the mortar joints. The water usually shows up as a stain on the ceiling near the chimney, damp drywall or rust on the damper. We trace it back to the source before quoting, checking flashing, crown, cap and brick in turn. Then we fix the point where water actually gets in, whether that means new step and counter flashing, a rebuilt crown, a cap or repointing.

Leak Repair for Lehigh County Homes
Allentown averages about 43.5 inches of rain a year, with wet days eight to twelve times a month, plus 32.4 inches of snow. That is a lot of water for a chimney to shed, and flashing that has aged with the roof is usually the first thing to let it through.
South Mountain crosses the southern part of Lower Macungie and holds the Ancient Oaks community. Higher ground there means cooler, wetter weather and more wind-driven rain against the chimney, so we pay close attention to the side facing the weather.
We fix chimney leaks in Lower Macungie, Upper Macungie, Allentown, Emmaus and Salisbury Township.
