How we handle chimney flashing repair in Edgewood
What our pros check and why, on flashing jobs across Edgewood.
Counter flashing on a stucco-faced chimney
Plenty of chimneys are finished in stucco over block rather than exposed brick, which means there are no visible mortar joints to set counter flashing into. The detail has to account for the stucco layer, how it sheds water and where the metal can actually be anchored.
We look at how the existing counter flashing was attached and whether water is getting behind the stucco above it. Then we propose a detail suited to that finish, which may mean cutting a groove for the metal or a surface-mounted piece with a proper seal. The method is explained in writing before any cutting.
Who handles which layer at the chimney
Chimney flashing sits between two trades. The roofer owns the roof covering and often the base and step pieces woven into it. The chimney side owns the masonry, the mortar joints that hold counter flashing and everything above the roofline.
Leaks often live in the gap between those two responsibilities. When both trades are involved, we write down which layer each one handles, in what order, and who seals the final laps. Clear boundaries keep your repair from ending up as two partial fixes with one open seam between them.
Testing a suspect face with water
When the source is unclear, a controlled water test can separate one path from another. Water is run over a small area, starting low on the roof and working upward, while someone watches the attic or the ceiling for the first sign of a drip.
It takes patience, since each area needs time to show or stay dry. We use this method where the visible evidence does not isolate the junction, and we tell you beforehand what the test can and cannot confirm.
Cleaning up after flashing work
Flashing jobs produce old metal, sealant scraps, mortar dust and sometimes broken shingles or tile. Nails and metal offcuts can end up in gutters and in the yard below, and roofing granules wash loose whenever shingles are lifted.
We clean the roof, the gutters and the ground around the work area and sweep for stray nails before leaving. Old material is hauled away unless you ask to keep it. Cleanup is part of the scope, not an extra.

Chimney flashing questions from Edgewood
Answers from our specialists in Edgewood, with no sales pressure.
What metal do you use for chimney flashing?
It depends on the roof covering and the chimney face. We commonly work with aluminum, coated steel, stainless and copper, and the Florida code requires the metal to be corrosion resistant. The metal and its thickness are written into your estimate.
Do you stand behind the flashing work?
Yes. Flashing we install comes with our workmanship warranty and our 100% satisfaction guarantee, and if anything is off, our crew returns to correct it.
