Top Rated Chimney Repairs
in Erie, PA

Your chimney is the most common leak point on your roof. It is a massive hole where two different materials — brick and shingles — meet. Because brick expands and contracts at a different rate than your roof, the seal between them is under constant stress. When that seal fails, water doesn't just drip; it pours down your chimney stack and into your walls. At EJ's Roofing, our Erie, PA team are chimney flashing specialists. We don't just "caulk the cracks." We install custom-bent metal counter-flashing that is cut into the brick mortar for a permanent, watertight seal. We also build "crickets" — small peaked structures behind the chimney — to divert Erie's heavy snow and rain away from the stack.

Chimney Repairs FAQs

Common questions about chimney repairs in Erie, PA

Why does my chimney leak when it rains?

The most common cause is failed metal flashing at the base of the chimney. Water can also enter through cracked mortar joints or a failed chimney cap.

What is chimney flashing?

It is the metal (usually aluminum or copper) that creates the bridge between your roof shingles and the brick of your chimney. It consists of step-flashing under the shingles and counter-flashing into the brick.

Can you fix the brick on my chimney?

We specialize in the roof-to-chimney connection (flashing). If your chimney needs major repointing or brick replacement, we can recommend a trusted local mason.

How much does chimney flashing repair cost?

A typical flashing repair ranges from $500 to $1,500 depending on the size of the chimney and whether we need to build a cricket.

Will a chimney leak cause a fire hazard?

Water entering the chimney can damage the liner and cause structural rot. While not an immediate fire hazard, it can compromise the safety and efficiency of your fireplace over time.

What is a chimney cricket?

A cricket is a small, peaked structure built behind a chimney on the high side of the roof. It diverts water and snow around the chimney rather than letting it pool behind it.
