Local Conditions
Chimney problems we see in Kent
Kent's valley floor and its two hills sit in the same weather as Sea-Tac, a few miles northwest, where the annual normal is 40.34 inches with about 73% of it falling October through March. Winter minimums average around 37°F while roughly 60 days a year touch freezing, so saturated brick thaws and refreezes repeatedly, the cycling the Brick Industry Association ties to cracking and spalling. East Hill's mature trees shade many roofs, where moss spreads fastest October through April.
Kent's median home was built in 1985. The 1960s–80s ramblers and split-levels on East Hill and West Hill typically have masonry chimneys, while the 1990s-and-later plats typically have factory-built fireplaces in framed chases. On split-levels the chimney often rises through a low-slope roof section where flashing does a lot of work, so leaks here are frequently a flashing problem rather than a brick problem.
- Flashing leaks on split-level roofs: flashing repair or flashing replacement
- Cracked crowns on East Hill ramblers: crown rebuild
- Rusted chase covers in post-1990 plats: chase cover replacement
- Creosote in wood fireplaces: chimney sweep
- Smoky or smelly flues unused for years: chimney cleaning

Kent chimney service FAQ
How soon can you get to East Hill in Kent?
East Hill is about 15 to 20 minutes from our Renton office. Same-day service is often available, and leak calls in the rainy months get priority. We confirm a window when you call and show up with what we need for a free quote on the spot.
My split-level in Kent leaks around the chimney when it rains hard. Is it the brick?
Often it is the flashing, not the brick. Split-level roofs put the chimney at a roof transition where step and counter flashing fail. We find the actual entry point before quoting, then repair or replace the flashing, and only suggest masonry work if the brick is the cause.
Do you service the newer homes near Lake Meridian and Covington?
Yes. Those 1990s-and-later homes typically have factory-built chimneys in framed chases. We replace rusted chase covers starting at $299, repair rotted chase tops and siding, and rebuild the whole chase starting at $299 when the framing is too far gone to save.
What does a Kent chimney sweep cost?
Our sweep and inspection special starts at $299 for a standard wood-burning fireplace. If the flue turns out to be heavily blocked or neglected, that is a cleaning rather than a sweep and we will quote it separately and for free before doing any work.
Will you match a quote from another Kent chimney company?
Yes. Bring the written quote, we give you a free second-opinion quote, match it and take 10–25% off. If the other scope is more than your chimney needs, we tell you that too. If you're not happy with our work, we're not done.
