Flashing repair explained for Randal Park homeowners
Our team in Randal Park walks every homeowner through points like these.
When a chimney is wide enough to need a cricket
A cricket, which some roofers call a saddle, is a little ridged roof framed on the uphill side of the chimney so water parts around it. Section R903.2.2 of the Florida Building Code, Residential, calls for a cricket or saddle on the ridge side of any chimney more than 30 inches wide, measured perpendicular to the slope.
We measure the chimney and tell you whether it falls under that rule. Building or rebuilding a cricket is its own job with its own framing and roofing, so when one is missing or failing we write it up on a separate line, next to the flashing repair it connects to.
Opening a joint for new counter flashing
New counter flashing on brick needs a clean slot to sit in. That slot is usually an existing mortar joint, raked out to the depth the metal needs, or a groove cut into the masonry where the joints do not line up with the roof.
Cutting makes dust, so we protect the roof and the ground below and clean up afterward. The slot is then closed with mortar or a masonry sealant around the metal, depending on the detail. We explain which method we propose and why before any saw touches the chimney.
Restoring the shingles around new flashing
When shingles come up for flashing work, some may crack or tear, especially older ones that have gone brittle. Matching replacements are not always available, and a patch of new shingles beside a weathered roof can stand out.
Before starting, we tell you how many shingles we expect to disturb and what happens if they cannot be reused. You decide how much appearance matters before the work begins, not after the roof is already open. Keeping a few spare shingles from the original roof, if you have any in the garage, makes matching far easier.
Patch metal slipped over old flashing
A common quick fix is a new piece of metal slipped over or under the old flashing and sealed at the edges. It can stop a drip for a while, but it adds another set of seams and hides what is happening underneath.
We remove patch pieces during a full repair to see the original metal and the roof beneath. If a patch has actually been working, we tell you, and we can discuss whether a smaller repair makes sense.
