Flashing is the metal seal where your chimney meets the roof, designed to keep water out of your home. If you see water stains on your ceiling near the chimney or notice damp insulation in the attic, your flashing may be compromised. Companies specializing in this repair remove the old sealant or metal, install new waterproof flashing, and ensure a tight bond. This is a critical repair to prevent long-term water damage to your home’s structure.

This safety rule dictates that a chimney should extend at least three feet above the roof penetration. Furthermore, it must be at least two feet taller than any part of the building within a ten-foot radius.
