Water leaks can cause serious damage to your chimney and home. We offer specialized waterproofing and leak repair services to prevent deterioration and extend the life of your chimney.

Chimney Rain Leak Repairs in Dallas and the DFW Metroplex

If you’ve noticed water stains around your fireplace, damp odors, or visible signs of moisture in your chimney, you may be dealing with a rain leak. Water intrusion is one of the most destructive forces your chimney can face—and without timely repairs, it can compromise your fireplace system and even damage your home’s structure.

At The Chimney Sweep, we specialize in identifying the source of chimney leaks and delivering long-lasting, cost-effective repairs that protect your chimney for years to come.

How Rain Leaks Damage Your Chimney

Texas weather brings everything from summer storms to heavy spring rains, making your chimney especially vulnerable to water intrusion. Here’s what happens when moisture gets in:

Cracked or deteriorated mortar joints allow water to seep between bricks, weakening the structure.
Damaged or improperly sized flue liners can allow moisture to collect inside the chimney system.
Missing or damaged chimney caps let rain fall directly into the flue.
Lack of waterproofing or flashing causes water to pool around the chimney base, potentially affecting your roof or attic.

Left untreated, chimney leaks can lead to mold growth, rusted fireplace components, structural deterioration, and expensive repairs.

Proven Leak Solutions from The Chimney Sweep

We offer multiple solutions for rain leaks—each tailored to the condition and design of your chimney. These services often mirror the methods we use to fix smoke issues, as both problems frequently stem from structural or airflow deficiencies.

Tuck Pointing Repairs

Cracked and eroded mortar joints are one of the most common causes of chimney leaks. Our tuck pointing service removes the old, damaged mortar and replaces it with fresh, water-resistant mortar that seals the joints, restores structural integrity, and blocks water entry. Tuck pointing is a durable fix for both smoke problems and water leaks.

Chimney Relining

A compromised chimney liner not only affects ventilation but can also trap and retain moisture, leading to leaks. Our chimney relining service replaces old or cracked liners with high-quality, weather-resistant materials that protect your flue from water damage and improve fireplace efficiency.

Chimney Cap Installation

Every chimney needs a properly fitted chimney cap. A missing or damaged cap allows rainwater to fall straight down the flue. Installing or upgrading your cap prevents water entry, blocks animal nests and debris, and helps reduce downdrafts. This small component makes a huge difference in leak prevention.

Preventative Maintenance and Inspections

The best way to avoid expensive chimney damage is through proactive maintenance. Our team recommends regular chimney cleaning and annual safety inspections to catch potential leak sources early and ensure your chimney stays protected against rain and weather year-round.

These guys are awesome, and I highly recommend them. I’ve known the owner for years, and I can tell you that this is not just a “business” to him. He truly cares that the job is done correctly so that hopefully people don’t have devastating incidents down the road. Serving his long career as a firefighter and then chief, he’s seen firsthand the losses suffered from things we might sometimes take for granted such as chimney buildup or lint in dryer vents.
