Rust holes in old flashing

Galvanized flashing that's been on the roof for years can rust through along its bends and at the nail holes. From the ground it looks fine; up close, you can see daylight through it.

Rusted flashing comes out and corrosion-resistant metal goes in, fitted to your roofing type and set into the chimney's mortar joints where it belongs. The Brick Industry Association recommends stainless steel for chimney flashing, and our pros will explain the options before anything is ordered. Each side is priced separately in case only part needs replacing. Ask about replacing rusted flashing at your home in Arredondo by calling (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Gutters that back up near the chimney

A gutter that clogs near the chimney on a home in Arredondo can back water up under the roofing at the chimney's front corners, where the apron meets the side flashing. Our pros check the gutter line below the chimney during a flashing inspection and point out any backup, since fixing the flashing alone won't stop water that's coming from below.

The apron across the front

On the downslope face of the chimney, a single apron piece runs across the base, lying over the shingles below and turning up against the brick. Water runs off the chimney face onto it and away down the roof.

It fails at the top edge, where it meets the brick, and at the corners, where it has to wrap around to meet the side pieces. A good apron extends around each corner with a tab so there's no open seam. Our pros check both corners carefully, since a gap there sends water along the side flashing and into the roof deck.

What the brick industry says about flashing metals

The Brick Industry Association's guidance on chimney flashing weighs the common metals. It notes that alkalis in fresh mortar attack aluminum, that copper can stain brick and stone, and it recommends stainless steel, such as Type 304. Galvanized steel is not recommended.

Our specialists use that guidance when choosing replacement flashing, balanced against your roofing type and what's already on the chimney. Mixing metals where they touch is avoided, since dissimilar metals corrode each other. The chosen metal is named on the quote, with the reason, so you know what's on your roof. Stainless also keeps its strength where fresh mortar touches it, which matters in the reglet joint.

Masonry work and roofing work overlap at the flashing. Our specialists handle the chimney side: the counter flashing set into the brick, repointing the joints it sits in, and the flashing pieces themselves when the roofing around them is sound.

When shingles, tiles or roof boards around the chimney are damaged, a roofer replaces them. Our pros will tell you when that's the case, coordinate the order of work, and make sure the quote shows who does each part. Working together on the same day where possible keeps the roof open for the shortest time. You get one quote that shows both halves.

FAQs

Common flashing questions in Arredondo

Is Arredondo in range for chimney flashing repair?

Of course. Point us to the ceiling or wall that shows the stain, and our pros will check all four sides of the flashing and the attic below at no cost. Arredondo is part of the Alachua County area we cover.

Why does roofing cement keep failing?

It dries, cracks and pulls away from the brick in the sun, and it hides what's wrong underneath. Our specialists remove it, fix the flashing properly and seal the joint with a masonry-rated sealant.
