The Roof Line Around Your Chimney, Explained
The flashing, the crown and the cap are checked together, and you approve the plan before any metal is cut.
Chimneys that pass through a metal roof
Standing seam and other metal roofs use trim and flashing pieces made to fit the panel profile. The chimney side of the joint still needs counter flashing set into the masonry, while the roof side follows the panel maker's details.
Our pros look at how the panels were finished at the chimney and whether the trim has been bent, lifted or sealed over. Where the roof side calls for the panel installer's own parts, we say so and coordinate with the roofer so nobody improvises a patch on your home in Keystone.
Mortar joints that hold the counter flashing
Counter flashing is only as secure as the joint it is set into. Soft, sandy or missing mortar lets the metal loosen and water slip behind it, so those joints are repointed before new counter flashing goes in.
The National Park Service's repointing guidance asks for a mortar weaker and more breathable than the surrounding brick, so the joint gives before the brick does. Our pros choose a mortar that suits your chimney's brick when they rebuild the joints along the flashing line.
Flashing on a stucco chimney
Stucco chimneys need the same two layers of flashing as brick ones, and the counter flashing has to meet the stucco in a way that sheds water off the finish instead of trapping it behind. Cracked stucco just above the flashing can be a sign that water has been getting in there.
Our pros look at how the stucco was finished at the roof line, whether a trim or reglet detail was used and whether cracks run down to the metal. Any stucco patching needed to close the joint is included in the scope, so the finish and the flashing are repaired together.
Finishing the ceiling after the leak stops
A water stain stays after the leak behind it is fixed. Drywall and plaster also need time to dry before painting, or the stain can bleed back through the new coat.
Our team fixes the chimney side first and checks in once the next rains have passed without a new mark. Interior repairs can then go ahead on a dry ceiling, and you avoid repainting over a leak that is still active.
