A client contacted The Roof Whisperer to replace his roof. During our detailed assessment, we found that the top of the chimney also needed repair. Many homeowners skip roof assessments to save money, but this creates a bigger risk. Salespeople may overlook or hide issues, and many roofing companies avoid chimney repairs altogether. Some simply cover up the problem or fail to show it to the homeowner.

At The Roof Whisperer, our policy of care and pride means we never ignore roof or chimney issues. Once we removed the roof material and wide counter flashing, it became clear that the bricks behind the flashing were damaged and crumbling. Chimney tuck-pointing does not require advanced skills, but it does require time, care, and a willingness to do the job right. This type of additional work is always added to the final invoice, but charges are clearly explained in every quote we send.

Our technician Klevis carefully restored the chimney by repairing mortar joints and the top section. Using a 5 ½-inch blade grinder and Type N mortar mix, he refilled the joints with precision. After the mortar dried, we installed new chimney flashing and waterproofed the chimney top with Alsan flashing.

The end result: a restored chimney, strong roof, and a happy client. This project highlights why hiring a company that values detail, honesty, and full-service roofing is so important. At The Roof Whisperer, we take the time to address every issue to protect your home for years to come.
