What causes chimney leaks?
Several things can cause chimney leaks, but the two major culprits are:
-Leaking Flashing
This is the metal that connects the chimney to the roof. If this becomes loose or damaged, leaking can occur.
-Improper Waterproofing
Your chimney is exposed to all kinds of weather, including rain, snow, sleet, and wind. This of course requires diligent waterproofing to ensure that leaking does not occur.
