[QUOTE="Dihusky, post: 605228, member: 10304"] Your chimney is leaking, but where from? Outside or inside, if outside, whereabouts and where is the water entering the room below? Have you checked the leadwork, if the pointing is coming out water can get behind the the top turnbacks, maybe the lead has oxidised and become porous and or the wedges released from the brick joints, many different locations to check before jumping in and possibly creating more problems.
