Prevent Costly Chimney Damage with Professional Repairs

Is your chimney tilting, leaning, or separating from your home? These are common signs that it’s time for a professional chimney repair. At Atlantic Foundation & Crawl Space Repair, we use industry-leading techniques, including patented helical piers, to restore stability to chimneys that have started to settle. Our experienced technicians provide reliable, long-lasting solutions to prevent further damage and protect your home.

Why Do Chimneys Tilt or Lean?

Unlike your home’s main foundation, chimney foundations are often separate, which can make them vulnerable to settling. When the soil beneath your chimney is not compacted enough or loses stability due to moisture or erosion, it can cause the chimney to tilt or pull away from your home. This type of foundation movement can result in structural problems and safety hazards if left untreated.

Signs of a Failing Chimney Foundation Include:

●  Gaps where the chimney meets the exterior wall of your home.
●  Cracks in the chimney’s mortar joints or bricks.
●  Roof Flashing Issues – Flashing that has separated from the chimney can lead to leaks.
●  Water Damage – Leaks in your attic or water damage around the chimney area.
●  Filled Gaps with Caulk or Mortar – A temporary fix often used when gaps appear but which does not resolve the underlying structural issue.

Our Proven Process for Chimney Repair

At Atlantic Foundation & Crawl Space Repair, we use a precise approach to repair and stabilize chimneys. Our patented helical piers provide the support your chimney needs to prevent it from leaning or tilting in the future. Here’s how it works:

1. Assessing Chimney Damage – We begin by examining your chimney to determine the level of settlement and damage.
2. Installing Helical Piers – Our technicians install helical piers at the base and corners of the chimney by drilling into stable soil layers. This transfer of weight prevents further settling and provides reliable support for your chimney.
3. Adjusting Chimney Position – If your chimney has tilted or separated from the house, we may use the helical piers to gradually lift the chimney back into position.
4. Sealing and Waterproofing – We also recommend sealing or waterproofing areas around the chimney to help keep moisture out and preserve the chimney’s condition.
This patented solution strengthens the chimney foundation, offering a permanent fix to prevent future structural problems.

Why Professional Chimney Repair Matters

Ignoring signs of a damaged or leaning chimney can lead to serious issues over time, including costly repairs and even potential safety risks. A leaning chimney may not just impact your home’s curb appeal but also cause structural strains on nearby walls and foundations.

Professional repair ensures that the job is done right the first time, protecting your investment and eliminating the need for repeated fixes.
