Flashing repair explained for Wadeview Park homeowners

Straight answers about flashing work in Wadeview Park, from the people who do it.

Satellite dishes and antenna straps on the chimney

Mounting a dish or antenna to a chimney puts fastener holes in the masonry and sometimes through the flashing. Straps wrapped around the chimney can also trap debris and hold water against the brick near the roofline.

If a mount is no longer used, removing it and filling the holes properly usually belongs in the flashing job. If it is still in service, we work around it and note any holes near the flashing that need sealing.

When a roof valley runs into the chimney

A chimney placed where two slopes meet in a valley takes water from both directions. The valley metal and the chimney flashing have to overlap in a specific order, and that joint is one of the trickiest on any roof.

We check how the valley ends at the chimney and whether its water is carried past the flashing or under it. This detail may involve both trades, so we write down which part we handle and leave no gap between the two scopes.

When opening the roof reveals more

Some damage becomes visible only once the old flashing comes off. Rusted metal under tar, soft decking or loose brick at the base can change what the repair needs. A course of brick that crumbles when the old counter flashing comes out is a typical example.

When that happens, we pause, show you what we found and explain the options before continuing. Any change is written and approved first. The price you agreed to stays the price you pay unless you choose to add something.

Temporary protection before the repair

When a leak is active and the repair has to wait for dry weather or materials, temporary protection can limit the damage. That may mean a secured cover over the junction or refastening a lifted piece of metal.

Temporary measures are just that. We tell you what they do and how long they are meant to last, and we remove them when the permanent flashing goes in. They are never a reason to put off the real repair longer than the weather requires.

Before your flashing job in Wadeview Park

Questions we hear on flashing visits in Wadeview Park, answered plainly.

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.

How do you decide between a repair and a full reflash?

Flashing usually wears out gradually, with spreading rust, cracked sealant, lifted counter flashing edges and opening corners. One sign alone may not leak yet. When several show on one chimney, we explain whether a repair buys real time or a full reflash makes more sense, and both options go in writing.
