Leak Repair, Northampton CountyChimney Leak Repair by Your Local Crew in Northampton County, PA
Chimney leaks in Northampton County tend to show up after snowmelt or a windy spring storm, as a ceiling stain beside the chimney, damp plaster on the chimney breast or water in the firebox. The cause could be flashing, a cracked crown, a missing cap, open joints or porous brick, and sometimes it is condensation from a heating flue rather than rain. We work out which before we quote. Then we fix the actual entry point and explain what happened, so the stain does not come back next season.

Leak Repair for Northampton County Homes
Easton usually gets about 30 inches of snow a winter, and spring and fall bring stronger winds. Snowmelt and wind-driven rain both test chimney flashing hard, and that is where we start looking when a chimney leaks here.
In the early 1920s, new subdivisions along the trolley lines doubled Palmer Township's population within ten years. Chimneys from that era are now about a century old, and worn flashing and open mortar joints are common leak sources on them.
We fix chimney leaks in Palmer Township, Easton, Forks Township, Hellertown and Nazareth.
