Finding the Source Before Fixing the Leak
Approve a leak repair within 72 hours of the free inspection and save 10%. Here is how our pros find and fix the source.
A controlled water test
When the entry point is not obvious, a water test can find it. A hose is used on one section at a time, the roof line first, then each wall, then the crown and the cap, while a helper inside calls out the first drip.
Working from the bottom up, as diagnostic procedures such as AAMA 501.2 do, keeps water from an upper section from muddying the result below. Our team schedules the test for a dry day, and the finding goes into your estimate with the repair it points to.
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 West Tampa match it to what they see outside, which can shorten the search.
Putting the repairs in the right order
The order of work matters with a chimney leak. Openings at the top and the roof line come first, masonry repairs next, a breathable water repellent after that if it is still needed, and interior finishing last.
Our team lays out that order in your estimate. Each step is then built on dry, sound work, and nothing gets painted over while water is still coming in. Coatings in particular go on only when the masonry is dry, and a repaired chimney needs time to get there.
Working with your roofer
Some chimney leaks sit where the roof and the chimney meet, and a few need the roof covering lifted. That joint belongs to two trades. The masonry, the counter flashing and anything on the crown or cap are chimney work, while the shingles, tile or underlayment around them belong to the roof.
Our team explains which part of the repair is chimney work and which part your roofer should handle, and we agree on the order before anyone starts. You get one clear plan instead of two crews guessing.
