What goes into a flashing job in Timber Springs
The details below shape the repair we recommend in Timber Springs, and each one shows up in your written estimate.
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.
Rust at the lower bends
Water lingers longest where flashing turns from the chimney face onto the roof. On painted or galvanized steel, that bend is where rust usually breaks through first, sometimes behind a coat of paint that still looks fine from the driveway.
We probe the bends along each face and at the corners. Surface rust may need only cleaning and coating, while pinholes or thinned metal mean replacement. You learn which applies to each face, so you are not paying to replace good metal or to paint over bad metal.
Painting flashing to match the chimney
Some homeowners want the flashing painted to match the brick, the stucco or the roof. Paint can protect certain steels and make the junction less noticeable from the street, but it must suit the metal and go on a clean, prepared surface.
We tell you which flashing metals take paint well and which are better left bare. If you choose paint, the product and color are recorded in your scope so the finish can be matched later.
Plumbing and roof vents near the chimney
Vent pipes and roof vents close to the chimney have their own boots and flashing. A cracked rubber boot a foot away can make a leak look like it is coming from the chimney junction.
We check any vents within reach of the chimney during the inspection. If a vent boot is the problem, we say so, and you avoid paying for chimney flashing that was never the source. Replacing a cracked boot is a small roofing task, and we tell you who can handle it.
