Cracked crowns, failing mortar, damaged flashing, leaking liners — chimney damage tends to get worse with every Pacific Northwest winter.

The Pacific Northwest's wet winters are hard on masonry. Freeze-thaw cycles crack mortar, rain infiltrates damaged crowns, and flashing failures can lead to water damage inside your walls. Catching these early can save significantly on remediation costs later.

Warning Signs You Need Chimney Repair

White staining on exterior — chimney repair warning sign

What Customers Say

If you are looking for professional and affordable chimney repair services, I highly recommend these guys. We had a leak from our chimney that we needed repaired. We got a lot of INSANE quotes from other companies, but Sean the technician that we worked with gave us a super reasonable price and was really kind as well. He explained everything to us and gave us a price breakdown in the quote so there was full transparency for pricing. They did an awesome job repairing the leak and redoing the flashing. We would use them again!

Great guys! I love the way they approached my project compared to other companies — my chimney was falling apart and leaning very bad, the masonry was crumbling. I wanted a rebuild from the roofline up and Seattle Chimney Services got it done for an amazing price and within my timeframe before selling the house. Highly highly recommended.
