Signs of a Failing Chimney Foundation
The signs your chimney’s foundation is failing is not always obvious. Here are ways you can tell if your chimney is failing.
Gaps
There are gaps where the chimney meets the exterior wall of your home.
Cracks
Cracks appear in the mortar joints or bricks of the chimney.
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
Filling gaps with caulk or mortar when gaps appear does not resolve the underlying structural issue. If you see any of these, someone in the past may have tried to resolve things this way.

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:
Assessing Chimney Damage
We begin by inspecting your chimney to assess the extent of settlement and damage.
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.
Adjusting Chimney Position
If your chimney has tilted or separated from the house, we may use helical piers to gradually lift it back into position.
Sealing and Water proofing
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.
