Flashing on a metal roof

Metal roofs move more than shingles as they heat and cool, and their ribs make a chimney joint tricky to seal. The roof maker's own details show how their panels meet a chimney, with a formed flashing piece and closures shaped to the ribs.

Those details guide the job: counter flashing fitted into the brick, and joints sealed with a sealant that stays flexible as the metal moves. Where the roof panels themselves need work, your roofer handles that, and the quote says who does what. Ask our specialists about flashing on your metal roof in Haile Plantation by dialing (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Solar panels and dish mounts near the chimney

If solar panels, a satellite dish or a vent pipe sits close to the chimney on your home in Haile Plantation, its mounting can crowd the flashing or put screws right through it. Our specialists check anything fastened near the chimney, reseal penetrations that affect the flashing, and tell you if a mount needs moving by whoever installed it. Every screw through flashing is a potential leak.

How far the base flashing should reach

To do its job, base flashing has to reach far enough both ways. The Brick Industry Association's detail has it extend at least 4 inches onto the roof and at least 4 inches up the chimney face, with tabs folded around the corners.

Pieces cut short to save metal, or trimmed back during an old roof job, leave too little overlap. Water creeps sideways under the roofing or over the top edge. Our pros measure what's there during the inspection and replace short pieces with ones cut to the full size, so the repair doesn't depend on sealant alone. Full-size pieces also leave room for the roofing to cover the fasteners.

The upslope side takes the most water

Every drop of rain landing on the roof above the chimney runs down to its back face. A narrow chimney can shed that with a back pan, a flashing piece that runs up under the shingles and turns up against the brick, carrying water off to either side.

On a wider chimney, that much water piles up, pushes under the roofing and soaks the brick. Leaves and needles collect there too and hold the water in place. Our specialists check the back pan for rust, splits and debris dams, and tell you if the chimney is wide enough to need a cricket instead.

Does your chimney need a cricket?

A cricket diverts water approaching the uphill side of a chimney. Whether one is required, and how it connects to the roof, depends on the chimney and roof configuration. The inspection considers those details alongside the flashing instead of assuming every leak needs the same alteration.

Your chimney is measured against that rule, and the measurements go on your quote. A missing cricket on a wide chimney explains a lot of back-side leaks. Building one takes framing, sheathing, flashing and roofing, and your quote says who does that work.

FAQs

Reseal or replace? Common questions

Does my chimney need a cricket?

It depends on the chimney's dimensions and position on the roof. Our pros check the applicable requirements and discuss any proposed cricket or roofing work in the estimate.

Should the flashing be redone with a new roof?

In most cases, yes. Old flashing gets bent coming off and may not fit the new roofing. Our pros time the chimney side of the work with your roofer. Talk to us before your reroof in Haile Plantation at (352) 675-6366.
