Inside a Chimney Flashing Repair in Lutz
Every flashing job we do in Lutz is built in layers, lapped downhill and backed by our workmanship warranty.
Flashing on concrete and clay tile roofs
Tile roofs are flashed differently from shingle roofs. Section R905.3.8 of the Florida residential code calls for flashing and counterflashing where tile meets a vertical surface to follow the tile manufacturer's instructions and the FRSA/TRI installation manual for concrete and clay tile in high-wind areas, along with the code chapter itself.
Those details use pans, channels and formed metal that sit under and between the tiles. Our pros identify the tile profile first and plan the flashing around it, because a shingle-style repair on a tile roof leaves water paths the tile was never meant to cover.
Brick at the roof line
The courses just above the roof can stay wet longer than the rest of the chimney, especially where flashing has been leaking behind them. Spalled faces, crumbling corners and cracked units at that line make it hard to seat new counter flashing securely.
Our specialists check those courses when the old flashing comes off and price any brick replacement on its own line. Fixing the base first gives the new metal something solid to hold, and your estimate shows both steps before you decide.
Flashing where a framed chase meets the roof
A framed chase is a wood-framed box with siding, and where it rises through a roof slope it meets the roof like a short wall. Its sides are flashed the way a sidewall is, with step flashing or a continuous L under the siding, as section R905.2.8.3 allows on shingle roofs.
Siding run tight onto the shingles, or trim nailed through the flashing, can let water into the framing. Our specialists check the chase walls, the trim and the flashing together and tell you if siding has to come off to reach the problem.
Checking flashing during yearly service
A yearly inspection is what NFPA 211, the national chimney and venting standard, calls for. Flashing belongs in that look, because a lifted edge or a failing bead of sealant is far easier to fix before it lets water in.
When our pros sweep or inspect your chimney in Lutz, they check the flashing from the roof and mention anything worth watching. Small fixes can sometimes be handled on the same visit.
