Chimney service in Kendall from a family team

Waterproofing a chimney is the last step in keeping water out, not the opening move. A water repellent can slow the amount of rain that soaks into brick. It cannot close a crack, fill a failed joint or replace missing flashing. Our family team waterproofs chimneys in Kendall only after the parts that let water in have been repaired.

We handle those repairs too, from crowns and caps to flashing and masonry. The product matters as much as the timing. Masonry guidance on clear coatings favours repellents that let the wall breathe. Moisture already inside the brick can then leave as vapour. A film-forming sealer that traps that moisture can make spalling worse. The repellent we use is applied according to its data sheet, to clean, dry and sound masonry.

Tell us where the water shows up inside. Mention whether the brick face stays dark long after rain and whether white deposits appear on the outside. Those clues point to where water gets in and whether the masonry is soaking it up. The free inspection looks at the crown, cap, flashing and brick together. We explain which of them need work before a repellent makes sense.

The free written estimate separates the repairs from the treatment, with upfront pricing on each. Commit to a service before 72 hours have gone by after your free inspection, and we take 10% off it. Where the job calls for a hose test, it confirms that the repairs hold before the repellent goes on. Debris is cleared from the roof and ground and taken away.

You receive a written record and our workmanship warranty. A maintenance visit can check the treatment later and tell you whether the brick is still shedding water the way it should.
