Chimney Flashing Repair in Greater Seattle, WA
Signs Your Flashing Is Leaking
Flashing is the metal seal between your chimney and your roof. When it fails, water gets into your walls and ceilings — often without an obvious source. It's the most common cause of chimney-related water damage we see. We tear out the bad flashing and do it right.
Flashing problems often go unnoticed until there's visible damage inside. By then, water has been working behind your walls for months. If you notice any of these signs, flashing is the first thing to check.
Our Repair Process
Why It Fails
Flashing Doesn't Last Forever
Flashing fails for a few reasons: the original installation was done with just caulk instead of proper step and counter flashing; the mortar that holds counter flashing in the chimney joints cracks and lets it pull away; or the metal itself corrodes after years of exposure. In the Pacific Northwest, constant wet-dry cycles accelerate all of it.
A proper repair replaces the flashing — not just re-caulks it. Caulk-only fixes last a year or two before they fail again.
