Water Repellent Sealing

  Get Social Specials!

Protective coatings can reduce the amount of water that is allowed to enter your chimney. Bricks are porous and once they are worn they will allow water to penetrate deep into and even through the chimney. You can reduce this problem by having Northeastern Chimney LLC apply Water Repellent Coating to the exterior of your chimney. The longevity and function of your chimney can be improved by adding this layer of protection.

Water, left unchecked can cause deterioration, corrosion, spalling and efflorescence. These things will result in long-term damage to your chimney and ultimately water can cause complete failure of the chimney. We advise that any middle aged chimneys (15 or more years old) should be treated in order to prolong their useful age. The cost of treatment is far less that treating the problems that can arise if water gets where it doesn't belong.

Our services are available in many of the towns in Central Connecticut that we offer chimney sweep and chimney inspection services in. You will see our trucks throughout the Greater Hartford area, Middlesex County and the Farmington Valley quite often. Towns like Avon, Farmington, West Hartford, Newington, Simsbury, South Windsor, Tolland, Cromwell, Middletown, Rocky Hill, Wethersfield and Manchester account for tens of thousands of satisfied Northeastern Chimney customers.

Water Damage Can Take Many Names - Here are just a few!

white stains on chimney

Efflorescence - The white stains on the outside of a masonry chimney indicate that water has penetrated the brick and salts are pouring out of the chimney.

spalling Spalling - Water entering the brick, saturating it and then freezing and thawing will separate the facing from the bricks and pieces of brick will fall off of the chimney. This is a very serious problem and should be addressed as soon as you notice any problems.
erosion Erosion - Bricks just begin weakening and falling apart along with the mortar that should be holding your chimney together. Again the culprit is moisture, wind and rain combined with harsh temperature changes that occur seasonally.
