Our Chimney Repair Services in Silverdale
Mortar Repointing
Silverdale’s 55-60 inches of annual rainfall slowly dissolves the mortar joints in masonry chimneys, especially on homes built during the 1970s-1990s naval expansion. When we repoint a chimney in the 98383 ZIP code, we grind out the deteriorated mortar to proper depth and pack new, properly mixed mortar that matches the original joint profile. Most repointing jobs on a standard Silverdale ranch-style home run $450-$850 and finish in one day. We use professional-grade materials from Copperfield and Famco - no bagged hardware-store mortar that’ll wash out in five years.
Spalling Brick Repair
Spalling - when brick faces flake and pop off from freeze-thaw cycling - is common in Silverdale’s older military-era housing. Water soaks into porous brick, winter temperatures dip below freezing, and the surface layer shears away. We’ve replaced spalled courses on chimneys near Bangor Trident Base where decades of neglected maintenance left the flue exposed to the elements. Individual brick replacement runs $350-$650 for localized damage; if spalling has compromised multiple courses, we’ll show you the photos and give you an honest assessment of repair versus rebuild.
Chimney Waterproofing
Waterproofing a chimney in Silverdale isn’t optional - it’s maintenance. The damp chill here runs eight months or more, and unprotected masonry absorbs it like a sponge. Our waterproofing treatment uses vapor-permeable sealers from professional-grade suppliers that let the chimney breathe while blocking liquid water. A typical Silverdale application runs $400-$700 depending on chimney size and accessibility, and it’s the single best investment you can make to avoid a $1,500+ rebuild down the road. We pay special attention to the military rental inventory near Naval Base Kitsap, where landlords often skip this step between tenants.
Flashing Repair
Flashing is where your chimney meets the roof, and it’s the leak point we find most often in Silverdale homes. The combination of heavy rain and the thermal expansion of older metal flashing creates gaps that channel water straight into your attic and down your fireplace wall. Our technicians replace or repair flashing using materials from Olympia Chimney and Famco, sealed with proper counter-flashing techniques. Most flashing repairs in Silverdale run $300-$600 and stop the leak the same day we finish.

Common Chimney Repair Problems We See in Silverdale Homes
- Creosote-compromised masonry from neglected military rentals. Chimneys in the rental stock near Naval Base Kitsap frequently go 5-10 years without inspection while multiple tenant families burn through damp winters. The creosote buildup doesn’t just create fire hazard - the acidic condensation accelerates mortar deterioration from the inside out.
- Failed chimney crowns from freeze-thaw exposure. Silverdale’s temperature swings above and below freezing, combined with driving rain off the Strait, crack concrete crowns and let water straight into the chimney core. We see this constantly in the 1970s-1990s builds that dominate Silverdale’s housing stock.
- Deteriorated prefabricated fireplace surrounds. Many Silverdale ranches and split-levels were built with metal prefab inserts that have reached end of life. The factory-built chase covers rust through, the refractory panels crack, and homeowners assume the whole unit needs replacement when targeted repair often suffices.
- Water-damaged interior flue liners. Burning wet wood - common in Silverdale where outdoor piles never fully dry - produces cooler, more acidic flue gases. Over years, this degrades clay tile liners and corrodes stainless steel. Our camera inspections catch this before it becomes a carbon monoxide risk.
