What Goes Into Waterproofing a Chimney
Waterproofing starts with a free inspection and ends with a written record of the product used.
Spalled brick is replaced, then the rest is protected
Flaking faces and cracks running through a brick mean it has lost its hard outer skin. BIA guidance lists removal and replacement of spalled brick among the repairs to finish before any water repellent is considered.
Our pros replace the damaged units with brick that matches as closely as possible, let the new mortar cure and then treat the chimney as a whole. You get one plan, one written price per step and one team from start to finish.
A shiny chimney is a warning sign
A breathable repellent should leave brick looking natural once it dries. The Brick Industry Association notes that an unwanted gloss or sheen can point to a poorly chosen product or an improper application.
If you already see a glossy film on your chimney, our specialists check what it is before anything else goes on. If you are planning a treatment, ask to see the test area dry. Our pros aim for brick that looks like brick.
Sometimes the repairs are enough
The Brick Industry Association advises waiting several months after repairs before deciding whether a water repellent is needed, because moisture problems are often corrected by the repairs themselves.
Our family-owned team respects that advice. If your chimney in Gibsonton needs repointing or a new crown, we may suggest doing that first and checking the brick after some rain. If it still soaks up water, the treatment makes sense.
One visit or two
Cleaning and treatment alone can often be done in one visit when the weather allows. A chimney that needs repointing waits at least 72 hours for the mortar to cure, and new masonry waits far longer.
Our team tells you which it will be before anything starts in Gibsonton. The repairs, the cleaning and the treatment appear as separate lines with upfront pricing and no hidden fees, so you can see what each visit covers.
On any service we offer
Repairs, treatment or both, 10% off when booked within 72 hours of the visit.
