Fast, reliable chimney leak repairs that protect your West Roxbury home from costly water damage and structural issues.
Water damage doesn’t announce itself with fanfare. It starts as a small drip, maybe a stain on the ceiling near your fireplace, and before you know it, you’re dealing with rotted wood, mold growth, and repair bills that make your stomach drop.
That’s the reality for West Roxbury homeowners whose chimneys develop leaks. Your 1940s-era home wasn’t built to handle today’s weather patterns, and those freeze-thaw cycles we get every winter are brutal on aging masonry.
When we fix your chimney leak properly, you stop worrying about water finding its way into your walls, your basement, or anywhere else it doesn’t belong. You get back to enjoying your fireplace instead of stressing about what’s happening behind the scenes.
We’ve been solving chimney problems for West Roxbury homeowners for over 30 years. We understand how Boston winters affect these older homes, and we know exactly what it takes to make repairs that actually last.
We’re not the guys who show up, patch the obvious problem, and disappear. We dig deeper to find the real cause of your leak, whether that’s damaged flashing, a cracked crown, or deteriorating mortar joints that have been letting water in for months.
Our team knows West Roxbury’s housing stock inside and out. We’ve worked on colonials, Cape Cods, and everything in between, so we understand the unique challenges your home faces and how to address them properly.
First, we do a thorough inspection to find where water is actually getting in. That sounds obvious, but you’d be surprised how often the visible damage isn’t where the leak started. Water travels, and it’s good at hiding.
We check your chimney cap, crown, flashing, and mortar joints. We look at the interior and exterior, and we use the right tools to see what’s happening inside your chimney system. No guesswork.
Once we know what’s wrong, we explain exactly what needs to be fixed and why. You’ll understand what caused the problem and what we’re doing to prevent it from happening again. Then we make the repairs using materials that can handle West Roxbury’s weather, not the cheap stuff that’ll fail in two years.

Our chimney leak repairs address every potential entry point for water. We repair or replace damaged flashing where your chimney meets the roof, fix cracked crowns that let water pool and freeze, and repoint mortar joints that have deteriorated over decades of Boston weather.
We also install or repair chimney caps that keep rain and snow out of your flue, and we apply professional-grade waterproofing that lets your chimney breathe while keeping moisture out. This isn’t the hardware store spray-on stuff that washes away after one winter.
West Roxbury’s housing stock presents unique challenges. Many homes in the area were built in the 1940s and 50s, when construction standards were different. We understand how these older chimneys were built and what they need to perform reliably in today’s climate. Our repairs work with your home’s existing structure, not against it.
