Chimney Waterproofing & Leak Repair
Find the leak, fix it at the source, and armor the masonry against Utah’s freeze-thaw.
Waterproof & Seal
Stop Water Before It Starts Demolition
Chimney leaks are sneaky. Water enters at a cracked crown, failed flashing or thirsty brick, travels along framing, and shows up as a ceiling stain rooms away — usually during spring snow melt, weeks after the real damage started.
We trace leaks to the actual source instead of guessing. Then we fix what’s broken — flashing repaired, crowns sealed or rebuilt, rusted chase covers replaced — and finish with a vapor-permeable waterproofing treatment that lets masonry breathe while shedding Utah’s freeze-thaw cycles.
It’s unglamorous work that saves glamorous money: a waterproofed chimney can outlast an untreated neighbor by decades, and it costs a fraction of a rebuild. We also check the attic side, where slow leaks stain sheathing long before they show in living spaces. Most waterproofing visits take half a day, and the treatment carries years of protection per application. Pair it with a sound cap and crown, and water simply stops being part of your chimney’s story.

How We Work
Trace. Seal. Armor.
Trace
Water leaves clues — stains, rust, efflorescence. We follow them to the true entry point and photograph it so you see what we see.
Seal
Flashing, crown cracks, joints and chase covers repaired with materials rated for freeze-thaw, not hardware-store caulk.
Armor
A vapor-permeable water repellent soaks in clear — no sheen, no color change — and sheds water for up to a decade.
From the Field
Where Water Gets In — and How We Stop It
