What's Included
Flashing Inspection
We examine your chimney flashing for cracks, gaps, rust, and improper installation that could be causing leaks.

Minor issues like cracked sealant or small gaps are repaired to restore the watertight seal around your chimney.
Full Flashing Replacement
When repair isn't enough, we remove old flashing and install new, properly fitted materials.
Counter Flashing and Step Flashing
We install both counter and step flashing to create a layered barrier against water at the chimney-to-roof junction.
Sealant and Waterproofing
After installation, we apply proper sealants to ensure a long-lasting, watertight finish.
How We Fix Chimney Flashing
We inspect the entire chimney-to-roof junction, not just the obvious problem areas. Flashing failures often happen in spots you can't see from the ground. We document what we find, explain the issue, and install new flashing that's properly integrated with your roofing system. The goal is a repair that lasts, not a temporary patch.
Prevent Interior Water Damage: A leaking chimney can cause stained ceilings, damaged drywall, rotting framing, and mold growth. These problems get worse quickly and become expensive to fix. Proper chimney flashing stops the leak at its source and protects your home's interior from ongoing water damage.
We Walk You Through Every Step: Before we start, we'll show you what's wrong with your current flashing and explain exactly what we're going to do. You'll understand the repair before we begin, and we'll follow up after the work is done to make sure everything is holding up. Call us 7 days a week with any questions.
Expertise That Matters Around the Chimney: Chimney flashing is a specialized skill. It requires an understanding of how water moves on a roof and how different materials expand and contract with temperature changes. Our crew has the training and experience to install flashing that performs through Connecticut's hot summers and freezing winters.

How do I know if my chimney flashing is failing?
Signs include water stains on the ceiling near your chimney, dampness in the attic, and visible gaps or rust on the flashing itself. We can inspect it and let you know.
Can flashing be repaired, or does it need to be replaced?
It depends on the extent of the damage. Minor gaps can often be sealed, but corroded or improperly installed flashing usually needs to be replaced.
What causes chimney flashing to fail?
Common causes include age, poor original installation, thermal expansion, and storm damage. Connecticut's freeze-thaw cycles are particularly hard on flashing.
Will fixing the flashing stop my chimney leak?
In most cases, yes. Flashing failure is the leading cause of chimney leaks. If the leak has another source, we'll identify it during our inspection.
Do you work on all types of chimneys?
Yes. We repair and install flashing on brick, stone, and prefabricated chimneys.
What's your warranty on chimney flashing work?
