Hello
We have this problem with water coming threw the brick half way down chimney face brick on the outside portion of chimney on a finished sun porch and at inside ceiling.
We just had the chimney redone from the roof line up.The mason thought it was coming threw the flues, we have 3. 1 is for the furnace, 1 for the fireplace and 1 for the beehive stove on the sun porch. I caped off the 2 we are not using (Fireplace & Beehive ) but we still get it, so I have ruled out not coming down the pipes. I have just put on the DEFY heavy duty water sealer repellent to the entire chimney above roof to see if that fixes it. I have picture showing the problem areas, below the ceiling and in the attic. Any help would be a step in the right direction. I will need to find out how to post the pictures and will post link for the visuals this afternoon.
Thanks
