Jobs we quote most
Waterproofing, chase covers, caps, flashing
Cedar Hills and Vose still have 1950s–60s ranches with original brick. Murrayhill, Sexton Mountain, and South Beaverton add wood-sided prefab chases from the 1980s and 1990s. Both types fail in the rain — just in different places.
Beaverton sits in the Tualatin Valley with more than 40 inches of rain a year. Mature firs keep masonry and chase covers damp, which rusts factory tops and drives moss into mortar joints.
The two quotes we write most here are breathable waterproofing on ranch masonry and custom chase-cover replacements on rusted prefab chimneys.
Beaverton's neighborhoods are a mix of mid-century ranch homes around Cedar Hills and Vose, established split-levels near Greenway, and newer construction in Murrayhill and South Beaverton. Whether your home has an original masonry chimney or a prefabricated metal chase, the wet Tualatin Valley climate puts every chimney to the test. M.Y Chimney Sweeps & Repairs is a locally owned company that treats every Beaverton home like our own — honest work, fair pricing, and the owner on every job.
Why Beaverton Chimneys Need Extra Attention
The Pacific Northwest receives more than 40 inches of rain a year, and Beaverton's tree-shaded lots mean chimneys stay damp long after the rain stops. That constant moisture is the number-one enemy of masonry. Over time it causes:
- Cracked or spalling brick and crumbling mortar joints from repeated freeze-thaw cycles
- Deteriorated chimney crowns that let water seep into the structure
- Rusted or failing flashing where the chimney meets the roof, leading to ceiling stains and leaks
- Moss and organic growth that traps moisture against the masonry
- White, chalky efflorescence — a tell-tale sign water is moving through your brick
Catching these issues early with an annual inspection is far cheaper than waiting for a leak or a leaning chimney. That's why waterproofing and crown repair are two of our most-requested services in Beaverton.
