Chimney flashing details that matter in Clarcona
A closer look at the work, from our family-owned crew serving Clarcona.
When a roof valley runs into the chimney
A chimney placed where two slopes meet in a valley takes water from both directions. The valley metal and the chimney flashing have to overlap in a specific order, and that joint is one of the trickiest on any roof.
We check how the valley ends at the chimney and whether its water is carried past the flashing or under it. This detail may involve both trades, so we write down which part we handle and leave no gap between the two scopes.
When a home inspection flags the flashing
Home inspection reports sometimes say only that the chimney flashing needs further evaluation. That note can mean anything from a small gap to a failed system, and it leaves buyers and sellers guessing.
We look at the flashing and give you a written description of what we found and what the repair involves. Both sides can then decide on a repair or a credit with real information instead of a worst-case guess. If the seller would rather repair than negotiate, the same written scope becomes the work order, and the finished summary goes into the closing file.
When a small flashing repair is enough
Not every leak calls for a full reflash. A single loose counter flashing piece, a failed joint where the metal enters the masonry or a torn corner tab can sometimes be repaired on its own, provided the rest of the flashing is sound.
We tell you honestly when a small repair will do the job. It is written up with what it fixes and what it does not, so you decide with the whole picture and without pressure to buy more than the chimney needs.
A chimney pulling away from the house
When a chimney tilts or separates from the house, the flashing tears because the roof and the chimney are moving apart. Replacing the metal without dealing with that movement will not hold. Warning signs include a widening gap between chimney and siding, stair-step cracks in the mortar and flashing torn along one side only.
If we see signs of movement, we tell you and recommend a structural assessment before any flashing work. We would rather you spend nothing on flashing now than pay for metal that will tear again.

Before your flashing job in Clarcona
Questions we hear on flashing visits in Clarcona, answered plainly.
Can you work around my solar panels?
Often, yes. We check the clearance around the chimney during the inspection. If panels need to be moved for access, we tell you up front so the solar installer can be scheduled.
Could our downspout be part of the problem?
It can. When an upper roof drains onto the roof beside the chimney, one flashing face takes the whole stream, and even good flashing can be overwhelmed. We check where upper downspouts empty. Moving or extending one is gutter work, which we point out and leave to you or your gutter contractor unless we agree otherwise.
