About this service

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.

Summer is the quietest time for chimney work, making it the perfect opportunity to schedule repairs without the seasonal rush. Technicians have more flexibility to handle masonry work, cap installations, or flue liner replacements. Getting your maintenance done while the weather is dry ensures you are ready the moment the first chilly night arrives.

Frequently asked in Des Moines

What is the average cost to repair a chimney?

The average cost to repair a chimney in Des Moines can differ based on the specific issue. Simple flashing repairs are typically more affordable than extensive masonry work or flue relining. To get an accurate estimate for your home, it's best to schedule a free assessment with a local, licensed, insured pro. They can provide a precise cost.

Is chimney repair covered under homeowners insurance?

In Des Moines, homeowners insurance may cover chimney repairs if the damage resulted from a covered peril, such as a storm or fire. However, damage from routine wear and tear or lack of maintenance is usually excluded. It's recommended to review your policy or contact your insurance provider for details specific to your coverage.

What is the 3 to 10 rule for chimneys?

The '3 to 10 rule' for chimneys is a safety guideline ensuring proper ventilation.
