How we handle chimney flashing repair in Stoneybrook Hills
Practical points from our chimney flashing crew in Stoneybrook Hills.
Downspouts that empty beside the chimney
An upper-roof downspout that empties onto the roof near a chimney sends a concentrated stream across one flashing face. Even well-made flashing can be overwhelmed when a whole roof section drains onto it.
We look at where upper downspouts discharge and whether that water crosses the chimney junction. Sometimes extending or redirecting the downspout matters as much as the flashing itself. We point it out and leave the gutter work to you or your gutter contractor unless we agree otherwise.
Where the chimney sits on the roof changes the flashing
A chimney that comes through at the ridge has little water above it. One in the middle of a slope faces the full flow from above. One at the eave may meet a wall, a gutter or a soffit instead of open roofing.
Each location calls for a different flashing layout. We look at where your chimney emerges and how much roof drains toward it before recommending the pieces. The back of a mid-slope chimney usually needs the most attention.
A safe way to check your flashing from the yard
A pair of binoculars from the yard or an upstairs window shows a lot. Look for gaps between metal and masonry, rust streaks below the chimney, metal that has lifted and dark patches of tar or sealant around the base.
Write down what you see and on which side. That is useful information when you call, and it helps us bring the right materials to the first visit. We handle the climbing so you never need to.
Leaves and grit behind the chimney
The uphill side of a chimney catches leaves, pine needles and shingle grit that wash down the roof. Wet debris holds water against the back flashing and can clog a cricket valley. It also hides rust and open seams from anyone looking up from the yard.
We clear that debris during the inspection and look at the metal underneath. If debris builds up quickly on your roof, having it cleared now and then helps the back flashing last.

Chimney flashing questions from Stoneybrook Hills
Answers from our specialists in Stoneybrook Hills, with no sales pressure.
Do you repair flashing on tile roofs?
Yes. Tile flashing follows the tile maker's instructions and the FRSA/TRI tile installation manual that the Florida code references. We lift and reset tile by hand and tell you in writing how any breakage is handled.
Why is chimney flashing made in two parts?
Base flashing is fastened to the roof and counter flashing to the chimney, and the lap between them lets each move a little without tearing a seam. BIA Technical Note 19B treats them as separate pieces for that reason. One-piece metal run from the roof into a mortar joint cannot flex, so we replace it with a two-part detail.
