From Water Stain to Dry Chimney in Lake Magdalene
We are a local family business, and we stay with a leak until the chimney stays dry.
Water that is not rain at all
Burning fuel makes water. As the U.S. Energy Information Administration explains, hydrogen in the fuel combines with oxygen to form water vapor. In a flue that is cool or too large, the vapor can turn back into water and trickle down the chimney's inner walls.
Condensation leaves streaks and damp spots that look like a rain leak, but they follow the heating appliance's use rather than the weather. Our pros check that possibility before they start repairing a roof line that is sound.
Clues in the attic
If the chimney passes through an attic you can reach safely, look at the framing and decking around it after rain. Dark stains, damp wood or a drip line on the rafters show which side the water is coming from. Note whether the wet area is on the uphill side, the downhill side or right against the masonry, since each points somewhere different.
Share what you find when you arrange the visit. Our pros in Lake Magdalene match it to what they see outside, which can shorten the search.
Two leaks can look like one
A chimney can take on water at the crown and the flashing at the same time. Fixing one reduces the leak, the stain keeps growing and it looks as if the repair failed.
Our pros check every path during the inspection and tell you which ones are active. You get a separate price for each repair, and you can take them on together or one at a time. Where two paths feed one stain, a controlled water test on each part in turn shows how much each one contributes.
A cracked flue tile near the top
The top flue tile takes sun, rain and the heat of every fire. When it cracks, water can get between the tile and the masonry and run down inside the chimney.
Our pros look at the top tile and its joint with the crown during the leak inspection. A cracked top tile is repaired or replaced as a separate line, and anything deeper in the flue is explained before any lining work is proposed.
