What goes into a flashing job in Maitland
Before you approve flashing work in Maitland, these points are worth knowing.
Where sealant does belong in a flashing job
Sealant has a real role in chimney flashing. It closes the joint where counter flashing enters the masonry, seals seams between pieces and fills the hidden side of bends. What it should not do is stand in for missing metal or bridge an open gap by itself.
The product matters too. A roof sealant has to suit the metal, the masonry and the heat and sunlight it will face. We name the product in your written scope and apply it only where the flashing design calls for it, so a later roofer or chimney crew can see exactly what was used and where.
When a new roof came just before the leak
Leaks that begin soon after a roofing job often point to the junction. Old flashing may have been reused, bent during tear-off or simply covered with fresh sealant instead of replaced.
Share the roofer's paperwork if you have it, because it shows what was supposed to be replaced. We still check the current condition, since paperwork shows what was planned rather than what was finished. If the problem traces to the roofing work, we describe what we found so you can raise it with the roofer, and we quote our own part separately.
Masonry water repellent does not replace flashing
A water repellent on the brick reduces how much rain the masonry absorbs. It does not seal the seam where the chimney meets the roof, and it does nothing for loose or rusted metal.
If the brick above the roofline is soaking up water, a breathable repellent may help alongside the flashing repair. We recommend it only when the masonry shows signs of absorbing water, and we list it separately so the flashing work stands on its own.
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.

What people in Maitland ask about chimney flashing
Still deciding? These answers help, and the inspection in Maitland is free.
Can you repair the flashing on just one side?
Sometimes. If the other faces are sound and the new piece can lap correctly into the old, a one-side repair can work. When a full reflash is worth considering, we price both options in writing.
We have a skylight near the chimney. Could that be the leak?
It could. A skylight carries its own flashing, often from its maker's kit, and the two can share a strip of roof, so water past one can show up beside the other. We check both and tell you which is letting water in, then quote the skylight side in writing or send you to the right trade.
