Professional Chimney Flashing Replacement & Installation

Seal the most vulnerable intersection of your roofline with our professional chimney flashing replacement and installation service. As the primary transition point between vertical masonry and sloped roofing, the chimney base is statistically the most frequent site of moisture barrier failure. Our expert team specializes in the technical weaving of metal layers designed to redirect runoff around the chimney stack.

By utilizing durable materials like heavy-gauge copper, lead, and aluminum, we provide a permanent solution for the mystery leaks that frequently saturate attic insulation and rot the structural headers surrounding your fireplace.

Chimney Flashing Replacement & Installation

Invest in a watertight seal that accounts for the natural movement of your home. We combine traditional metal-smithing with advanced masonry integration to ensure your flashing remains secure through extreme temperature shifts. Whether you are addressing a crumbling mortar joint or upgrading your roof-to-wall transitions, our specialized services provide the reinforced defense and surgical precision your property requires to stay dry and structurally sound.

Precision Step and Counter Flashing Integration

We utilize a multi-layered approach to ensure absolute water rejection. Step flashing is woven into individual shingle courses, while a secondary counter flashing is embedded directly into the chimney’s mortar joints (the reglet). This creates a redundant, shingle-style shield that prevents water from being forced behind the metal during wind-driven rain.

Custom Solder-Joint Copper Fabrication

For the highest standard of durability, we provide custom-bent copper flashing with hand-soldered seams. Unlike aluminum systems that rely on temporary caulks, a soldered copper kit creates a molecularly sealed, one-piece barrier that matches the 75-year lifespan of premium roofing materials.

Structural Cricket and Saddle Construction

For wider chimneys that act as dams for roof water, we install custom crickets (or saddles). These small, peaked structures are built behind the chimney to divert heavy runoff toward the sides, preventing the water pooling and ice accumulation that lead to catastrophic roofing failure.

Worried About Water Stains Near Your Fireplace or Hidden Attic Rot?

A leak at the chimney base rarely stays at the chimney; it travels down the rafters and manifests as ceiling stains in your living room. We understand that a quick fix with roofing cement is only a temporary band-aid; our professional chimney flashing replacement provides the permanent, engineered solution your home needs.

  • FAQ

People Also Ask

What exactly is counter flashing and why is it necessary?

Counter flashing is the metal that is cut into the chimney’s mortar joints and hangs over the step flashing. It acts as a primary umbrella. Without it, water running down the bricks can get behind the step flashing and enter your attic. Proper counter flashing is let into the masonry, not just caulked to the surface.

Most flashing fails because it was either surface-mounted with caulk (which dries and cracks) or because it couldn’t handle the different expansion rates of wood and brick. If your original installer used thin-gauge aluminum or failed to use step flashing, the system was likely destined for a leak within 10 to 15 years.

Yes. We perform surgical flashing replacements quite often. We carefully remove the surrounding shingles, install the new metal components and masonry reglets, and then re-integrate the shingles. It is a highly effective way to stop an active leak without the cost of a full roof replacement.

Copper is the gold standard because it is soft enough to be perfectly formed around masonry but durable enough to last 75+ years. It also allows for soldered joints, meaning we can create a single, continuous piece of metal that has zero gaps for water to enter.

A cricket is a small, V-shaped structure built on the uphill side of a chimney. If your chimney is wider than 30 inches, a cricket is usually required by building code. It prevents water from pooling behind the chimney, which is a major cause of winter ice dams and wood rot.

No. Roofing cement is a temporary patch. Because brick and wood expand at different rates, the tar will eventually crack and pull away, often trapping moisture against the wood and accelerating rot. A professional replacement using metal flashing is the only permanent technical solution.

Most residential chimney flashing projects are completed in 4 to 8 hours. The process includes grinding out old mortar joints, fabricating the custom metal on-site, and ensuring the new shingles and flashing are perfectly integrated for a watertight finish.

Not when done correctly. We use specialized diamond-blade saws to make thin, precise cuts into the mortar joints for the counter flashing. This reglet method is the industry standard and does not compromise the structural integrity of your masonry; it simply provides a secure anchor point for the waterproof barrier.
