Fast Response to Wind Damage
A homeowner contacted The Roof Whisperer for an emergency chimney repair after strong winds blew off one of the chimney caps. He also asked us to cap and seal the top of both flues, since the chimney was no longer in use. This step would stop water from entering and damaging the home from above.
Our Repair Process
Our roofing expert, Robert, handled the repair quickly and with precision.
-
First, he custom-cut two metal covers and glued them firmly on top of the flue openings.
-
Next, he refastened both chimney caps, securing them against future high winds.
-
Finally, he applied Alsan flashing on the stone cap, which sealed the area around the flues and created a watertight finish.
The Result
Thanks to these steps, the chimney is now safe, sealed, and fully protected. The capped flues stop water infiltration, while the secured chimney caps withstand strong gusts of wind. As a result, the homeowner can enjoy long-term peace of mind.
