Chimney Leak Repair
Stopping Water Where It Starts with Trusted Chimney Solutions for the Twin Cities
Nothing threatens a chimney faster or more quietly than water. From subtle drips to major leaks, moisture can quickly undermine your chimney’s structural strength and your home’s comfort. At Chimney Doctors, we specialize in diagnosing and repairing chimney leaks with precision, care, and long-term results you can count on.

Why Is My Chimney Leaking and What Can Be Done About It?
Chimney leaks can be deceptive. What looks like a ceiling stain or a damp firebox might actually trace back to problems at the very top of your chimney. That’s one of the many reasons we recommend a ChimGuard full-coverage chimney cap installation. Common problems include cracked crowns, damaged flashing, missing chimney caps, worn mortar joints, or rusted chase covers. Each of these weak spots gives rain and snow an entry, and once moisture finds a path, the damage spreads fast.
Our team takes a full system approach to chimney leak repair. That means identifying the root cause, not just patching symptoms. Whether it’s sealing gaps in your flashing, rebuilding sections of masonry, or installing protective components, we’ll restore your chimney’s defenses and help prevent future leaks before they start.
What Happens If I Ignore a Chimney Leak?
Left unrepaired, a chimney leak can lead to serious problems: rotting woodwork, mold growth, rusted fireplace parts, deteriorating brickwork, and ruined ceilings or walls. What begins as a small drip can quietly turn into tens of thousands of dollars in home repairs, often without warning.
Even worse, moisture weakens your chimney’s structural integrity. If enough damage occurs, the system could become unsafe to use or could cause bricks to fall, forcing you into a costly rebuild or complete replacement. That’s why early detection and repair are essential.
