Should I Fix My Flaking Ceiling Around the Chimney Myself or Call a Pro?

Asked By CuriousCactus88 On

I've noticed that the ceiling around my brick chimney is flaking, and some pieces are actually falling down. I'm wondering if this is a bigger issue that requires a professional's help, or if it's something minor that I can simply patch up myself.

It sounds like you might be dealing with water intrusion, most likely from issues with your chimney flashing. It’s better to get that sorted out before you think about repairing the drywall. Ignoring it could lead to more damage in the long run!
