A day of flashing work at your house

Wondering what to expect on the day? Boards and covers go down on the roof first, then our pros lift the roofing edges along the flashing as needed, and remove the failed pieces. The mortar joint for the counter flashing is cleaned or cut, and any repointing is done first.

New base and step pieces go in with the roofing, the counter flashing is set into the brick and sealed, and the roofing edges are laid back down. Before leaving, they show you the finished work from a safe spot and clean up every scrap of old metal and sealant. Reserve your flashing repair in Williston Highlands by phoning (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Rain is the real test for flashing in Williston Highlands

With no salt to fight, standard corrosion-resistant metals hold up well as flashing on homes in Williston Highlands. What tests it is rain, especially heavy rain driven sideways, finding the one short lap or open seam. Our pros check every lap and seam on all four sides, since a single gap is enough for a stain to appear inside.

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.

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.

Where flashing fasteners should go

A nail through flat flashing on the roof is a hole waiting to leak. Properly installed flashing is fastened where the roofing covers the fastener, or held in the mortar joint above, so no nail sits exposed in the path of the water.

Exposed nails, and dabs of sealant over them, are early leak points, so our pros hunt for them. On repairs, fasteners go where the shingle or tile will cover them, and the counter flashing is held by the reglet and its sealant. It's a small detail that makes flashing last as long as the roof around it.

FAQs

Common flashing questions in Williston Highlands

What signs point to the flashing?

A stain right beside the chimney, wet boards along one side in the attic, or a leak only in windy rain all point to flashing. Our specialists confirm it on your free inspection and can run a water test if needed.

Can you work on tile or metal roofs?

Yes. Tile roofs follow the tile maker's details and the FRSA and TRI manual, and metal roofs follow the panel maker's chimney details. Our pros work to those, and panel or tile replacement goes to a roofer.
