Flashing on a sided chimney chase

Does your fireplace have a boxed-in chimney chase covered in siding? Where that chase meets the roof, flashing has to work with the siding and the water barrier behind it, tucking under the siding and lapping over the roofing below.

The step flashing should run up under the siding with no way for water to get behind it, and that's what our specialists check. If siding or trim needs replacing to do it right, the quote says so and names who handles that part. Rot found under the siding is priced as its own item. Ask our pros about flashing on your chase in Worthington Springs by phoning (352) 675-6366.

Local Conditions

Low-slope roofs around a chimney

Low-slope roof sections around a chimney in Worthington Springs 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.

Continuous flashing on the sides

The other method the Florida Building Code allows for shingle sidewalls is continuous L flashing, one long piece bent along its length and running up the side of the chimney. It's quicker to install but leaves less room for error, since water that gets past it anywhere follows it all the way down.

You'll hear which method your chimney has, how it's holding up, and which one our pros recommend for the repair. On most shingle roofs they favor step pieces, fitted course by course with the roofing, because each piece sheds its own water. Either way, the shingle maker's instructions for chimney flashing apply.

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.

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.
