  • Cracked or Missing Mortar: Gaps between bricks are a major red flag for water entry.
  • Spalling or Flaking Bricks: Deteriorating brick surfaces mean moisture is getting in.
  • Rust Stains: Around the chimney or fireplace opening, often from rusted damper or cap.
  • Water Leaks: Inside your firebox or around the chimney base in your attic, indicating flashing or crown issues.
  • Soot or Debris in Firebox: Can suggest a deteriorating flue liner.
  • Odd Smells: Especially when not in use, signaling creosote buildup or animal presence.
