Common Chimney Problems That Require Repairs

Without proper construction and maintenance, chimneys are one of the first masonry structures to deteriorate in a home. Exposure to weather, especially Toronto’s freeze-thaw cycles, can weaken brick and mortar over time.

Additionally, fireplace repair may be needed due to:

Chimney fires, which can damage the brickwork or liner
Lightning strikes, which can cause cracks or structural weakening
Natural settling of the home, leading to shifts in the chimney
Condensation damage, affecting bricks and lining over time

Signs Your Chimney Needs Repair

Look out for these warning signs that indicate you may need chimney services:

Mortar deteriorating or falling out from between bricks
Bricks bulging, cracking, or spalling (faces popping off)
Discoloration, such as white stains or dark patches
Chimney crown repair needed due to cracks or missing cement
Chimney flashing repair required if there are leaks around the chimney base
Broken or cracked chimney tiles (round or square terracotta tubes)
A leaning chimney, indicating possible structural issues
Water stains or damage inside the home, which may indicate a need for chimney leak repair

If you notice any of these issues, contact us for a free consultation and estimate.

Chimney Leak Repair & Chimney Crown Repair

A damaged or deteriorating chimney can lead to water infiltration, causing interior and structural damage. Our team specializes in chimney leak repair to prevent costly issues before they escalate.

The chimney crown, the cement slab at the top, is a critical part of keeping moisture out. Over time, cracks in the crown can allow water to seep into the brickwork, leading to further deterioration. Our chimney crown repair services restore the crown to ensure long-term protection.

If water is leaking into your home, it may be due to damaged flashing. Our chimney flashing repair services address any weak points to create a strong seal between your chimney and roof.

Chimney Cap Repair & Replacement

A chimney cap is essential for keeping out rain, debris, and animals. If your cap is damaged or missing, it can lead to moisture problems and blockages in your chimney.

Our chimney cap repair and replacement services ensure that your chimney is fully protected. Whether you need a new cap installed or repairs to an existing one, we provide durable, high-quality solutions.

How Much Does Chimney Repair Cost?

Chimney repair cost depends on the extent of damage, the materials required, and the complexity of the repair. Simple fixes like chimney flashing repair or chimney cap repair may be relatively inexpensive, while a full brick chimney repair or chimney rebuild will cost more.

We provide free estimates so you can get an accurate cost assessment before starting any work.

How do I know if my chimney needs repair?

If you notice missing mortar, cracked bricks, water leaks, or a leaning chimney, it’s best to schedule an inspection. A professional assessment will determine whether a repair or full rebuild is needed.

Common causes include weather exposure, moisture damage, poor construction, chimney fires, lightning strikes, and general wear over time.

Small maintenance tasks, like sealing minor cracks, can sometimes be done by homeowners. However, major masonry chimney repairs, chimney flashing repair, or chimney crown repair require professional expertise to ensure safety and long-term durability.

The chimney repair cost varies depending on the type of damage. Minor repairs might cost a few hundred dollars, while a full chimney rebuild can be more expensive. We offer free estimates so you can understand the costs before committing.

The timeline depends on the type of repair. Simple brick chimney repairs or chimney flashing repair may take a day, while a full chimney rebuild could take several days to complete.
