What Goes Into Waterproofing a Chimney

Once the free inspection is done, approving the work inside 72 hours takes 10% off. Here is how our specialists make brick shed rain.

When the chimney already carries a coating

A new repellent has to reach the brick to work. Brick Industry Association guidance notes that a penetrating coating usually will not work over an existing film-forming coating, and that an old coating may need removal or may have to wear off first.

If the history of your chimney is unknown, our pros look for the signs of an earlier product and test how the surface takes water. You get an honest read on what can be done now for your Lithia home and what has to wait.

Painted chimneys need a different conversation

Paint sits on the brick as a film. A breathable repellent cannot soak through it, and adding more layers can hold moisture in the masonry underneath. Peeling or bubbling paint on a chimney is often a sign that water is already trapped behind it.

Our specialists look at why the paint is failing before recommending anything. Sometimes the answer is repairs at the top or the roof line and a finish that breathes. We set out the options in writing, with the price for each, so you can choose.

Why our pros lean on siloxane-based repellents

For exterior brick, the Brick Industry Association recommends siloxanes. They bond with the silica in brick and mortar, repel liquid water well and still let vapor through. Silanes are close relatives and are used in some blends.

Film-forming products such as acrylics can look glossy and shed water, but BIA discourages them on exterior brick because they hold moisture in. On chimneys in Lithia, our specialists stay with breathable penetrants and show you the product and its data sheet before we begin.

Choosing between repair, treatment or both

Chimneys differ in what they need. Some need repairs only. Some are sound and ready for a repellent. Many need a little of both, done in the right order.

Our pros put those choices side by side in writing with upfront pricing, so you can decide what fits your home in Lithia. There is no pressure and no hidden fees, and our 100% satisfaction guarantee covers whichever option you choose.

On any service we offer

Repairs, treatment or both, 10% off when booked within 72 hours of the visit.
