Keeping Rain Out Where the Roof Meets the Chimney
Flashing repairs booked within 72 hours of the free inspection are 10% off. Here is how we keep water out at the roof line.
The apron across the downhill face
The face of the chimney that looks down the roof gets a one-piece apron. It lies over the roof covering below, turns up the masonry, and its ends wrap onto the sides so the step flashing above tucks over them. Water coming down both sides of the chimney runs out across the apron and onto the roof.
A bent, rusted or short apron lets water run back under the roof covering right at the front of the chimney, which is a frequent place for a ceiling stain to appear. Replacing the apron is sometimes all a flashing repair needs, and our specialists tell you when that is the case.
The uphill face of the chimney
Everything that runs down the roof above the chimney meets its back face. Water can pile up there in a heavy storm, along with leaves and grit that hold moisture against the metal. The back flashing has to reach well up the roof under the covering and turn up the masonry high enough to stay above that flow.
On a wide chimney, a cricket or saddle splits the water around it. Florida's residential code, in section R903.2.2, requires one on the ridge side once the chimney is wider than 30 inches across the slope. Our pros measure yours, and if a cricket is needed it is quoted as its own job.
Flashing before hurricane season
Atlantic hurricane season, per the National Hurricane Center, spans June 1 to November 30. Wind-driven rain pushes water sideways and upward, which tests every lap and every loose edge in chimney flashing.
A flashing check before the season lets our pros reset lifted counter flashing and reseal laps while the weather still allows the work. It is a small job next to drying out a ceiling after a storm.
Resetting a piece or reflashing the chimney
Some flashing problems are small. A counter flashing strip that pulled out of its joint can be reset and sealed, and a single rusted step piece can be replaced. Other chimneys have metal that is thin and pitted on every side, laps installed backward or repeated patches hiding the edges.
Our pros tell you which situation you have after the free inspection and price the smallest repair that will hold. When a full reflash is the honest answer, you see why, side by side with the limited option.
