Every piece of your chimney’s anatomy plays a role in its overall functionality and it’s important not to underestimate the necessity of each part, no matter how big or small it is. One part of a chimney that many homeowners tend to forget about or neglect is the flashing. Broken flashing can lead to lots of bigger issues down the line, so be sure to call our team in for an inspection right away, so we can ensure you’re in tip-top shape for the rest of winter.
What Is Flashing & What Does It Do?
Flashing is the piece of metal that shields the area where your roof meets your chimney. These two materials expand and contract at different rates, so this spot is especially vulnerable to leaks and water damage, which is why some extra protection is necessary. Without properly fitted flashing in place, you’d be experiencing lots of water-related issues in your ceiling and throughout your chimney.
Unfortunately, flashing doesn’t always stay in the best shape. Whether it is due to faulty installation, storm damage, curious animals tearing it up, or something else, it’s not uncommon for flashing issues to be the source of your chimney leaks. Think your flashing needs some professional attention? Our team is trained and qualified to handle it!
