Chimney Pressure Wash, Seal & Custom Cap Installation

For this Portland home, we completed a full chimney exterior refresh that included pressure washing, masonry sealing, flashing inspection, and the installation of a custom chimney cap to protect the system from moisture and weather-related damage.

About this Project

This project focused on restoring and protecting the chimney after years of exposure to Portland’s wet climate. While the chimney structure was still in good condition, surface buildup and moisture exposure made preventative maintenance the right solution to extend its lifespan and improve overall performance.

Pressure Washing the Chimney

We pressure washed the chimney to remove moss, dirt, and biological growth that naturally accumulate in damp environments. Cleaning the masonry not only improves appearance, but also allows us to clearly evaluate the condition of the brick and mortar before sealing.

Sealing the Chimney

After cleaning, we applied a professional masonry sealer designed to repel water while still allowing the chimney to breathe. Sealing helps prevent moisture absorption, reduces freeze-thaw damage, and protects the chimney from long-term deterioration caused by constant rain.

Flashing & Custom Cap Protection

We inspected the chimney flashing to ensure it was properly sealed at the roofline and installed a custom chimney cap to keep rain, debris, and animals out of the flue. Together, these components provide added protection against leaks and help keep the chimney functioning safely and efficiently.
