Leak Repair, Montgomery CountyChimney Leak Repair From Your Local Crew in Montgomery County, PA
Chimney leaks in Montgomery County usually show up as a stain on the ceiling near the stack, peeling paint on the chimney wall or water in the firebox after a storm. The source might be the flashing, a cracked crown, an uncapped flue, porous brick or condensation from a heating appliance, and each one needs a different fix. We track the water to where it actually gets in before recommending anything. Then we reflash, rebuild the crown, cap the flue or repoint the brick, and explain what we did and why.

Leak Repair for Montgomery County Homes
Snow and ice tend to linger on north-facing roof slopes in the county, which keeps chimneys on that side wet for longer after each storm. Flashing that stays soaked for days is where many winter leaks begin, so that is the first place we look on those roofs.
Lansdale grew quickly after a railroad line was built through it in the 1850s, and many of the borough's older brick houses date from the decades that followed. On chimneys that old, leaks often come through worn mortar and old flashing at the same time, and we fix both.
We track down chimney leaks in Lansdale, Horsham, Abington, Cheltenham and King of Prussia.
