Chimney & Crown Repair in Covington
Covington's rainy winters attack both masonry crowns and the metal chase covers on framed chimneys. A cracked crown or rusted chase cover lets water pour into the structure, rotting framing and staining ceilings near the fireplace. We rebuild crowns, install stainless chase covers and tuckpoint masonry to seal everything tight.
Fixing water intrusion early saves thousands in framing and drywall repairs. We trace the leak, repair the cause, and waterproof the structure so the rain stays outside your home.

Chimney & Crown Repair — your questions
What is a chase cover and why does mine leak?
It's the metal lid on a framed chimney chase. Galvanized covers rust and pool water, which leaks inside. We replace them with rust-proof stainless covers.
Can you fix a cracked chimney crown?
Yes. We rebuild crowns with a proper overhang and drip edge, then waterproof them so Covington rain can't keep cracking them.
I have water stains near my fireplace — is it the chimney?
Often, yes. A failed crown, chase cover or flashing is a common leak source. We find the water path and fix it at the source.
