Flashing on a tile roof

Tile roofs need their own flashing details. The tiles sit high and curved, so flat metal pressed against them leaves gaps that rain finds easily. The Florida Building Code points tile-roof flashing to the tile maker's instructions and the FRSA and TRI tile installation manual.

Our specialists follow those details at the chimney, shaping the flashing to the tile profile and sealing the counter flashing into the brick above it. Tiles near the chimney are lifted and reset carefully, and any cracked ones are noted for your roofer. You'll see the plan and price before work begins. Reserve a tile-roof flashing repair in Lawtey by phoning (352) 675-6366.

The 2020 Census put the population of Lawtey at 636. Lawtey lies inland from the Gulf and Atlantic coasts.

Local Conditions

Low-slope roofs around a chimney

Low-slope roof sections around a chimney in Lawtey slow the water down, so it lingers at the flashing. Laps that would shed water on a steep roof can let it back up on a gentle one. Our specialists extend laps and use details suited to the lower slope, following the roofing maker's instructions for that pitch. Low-slope details take a little more metal and a lot less worry.

Our Process

Flashing work in Lawtey, one side at a time

  1. Attic and all four sides

    The attic below is looked at first, then every side of the flashing on the roof.

  2. Choose reseal or replace

    You get each side given a written price, with the reason for the fix we recommend.

  3. Mortar first, then metal

    Joints are repointed, base and step pieces fitted, and counter flashing set into the brick.

  4. Seal, show and clean up

    Joints are sealed, you see the finished work, and every scrap of old flashing leaves with us.

Why each side of the chimney fails differently

The front of a chimney faces down the roof and sheds water onto the shingles below, so it fails mainly where its top edge meets the brick. The two sides sit parallel to the water's path and fail where step pieces are short, missing or pulled loose.

The back faces up the slope and takes the full flow of water from above, so it's where ponding and cricket problems show up. Our specialists inspect each side against its own weak points instead of treating the flashing as one thing. That's how they find the actual gap, rather than sealing everything and hoping the leak stops.

Flashing where metal roofing meets brick

Metal roof panels expand and contract more than shingles, and their raised ribs make a chimney joint harder to seal. Roof makers publish their own chimney details, with formed flashing and closure strips shaped to the ribs.

Working from the maker's details for your panel type, our pros set the counter flashing into the brick and use sealant that stays flexible as the metal moves. They also check that the metals used won't react with each other or with the roof's coating. Work on the panels themselves stays with a roofer, and the quote spells that out. Formed pieces come from the roofing maker's own line where they're available.

Attic clues that point to flashing

In the attic, a flashing leak leaves a trail. Water stains on the roof boards along one side of the chimney, damp insulation against the masonry, and rusty nail tips poking through the deck near it all point to a gap above.

Our specialists note which side the stains run down, since that tells them which flashing to look at hardest. Fresh water marks and damp insulation mean an active leak; dry, faded stains may be old history. That distinction helps you decide how quickly to book the repair. Our pros describe what they saw in the attic on the written quote, so you have a record of the leak's extent.
