How We Rebuild Chimney Flashing Layer by Layer
Local flashing pros, upfront pricing and a 100% satisfaction guarantee on every roof line we repair.
Aluminum flashing and fresh mortar
Aluminum flashing is light and easy to bend, and it has one weakness at a masonry chimney. The Brick Industry Association brief on flashing chimneys notes that the alkalis in fresh mortar attack aluminum, so a piece set into a new mortar joint can corrode where it is buried.
Our specialists take that into account when they choose metal for counter flashing that goes into the brick. Where aluminum suits the roof side, the pieces set in mortar may be a different, compatible metal. The choice is explained on your estimate so you know exactly what is going on the roof.
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.
What the attic can tell you
If you can reach the attic safely, look at the framing beside the chimney after a rain. Dark or damp wood, water lines on the rafters or a wet patch of insulation next to the masonry help show where water is coming in.
Tell us what you saw when you arrange the visit, even if it is only a darker patch of wood. Our team combines it with what we find on the roof, and the inspection costs you nothing either way.
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 Plant City, they check the flashing from the roof and mention anything worth watching. Small fixes can sometimes be handled on the same visit.
