A leaking chimney can create all types of problems. Not only to just your roof but also the attic and indoor walls. To ensure that your chimney and home is protected, Eastbrook Construction builds a chimney flashing, a sheet metal installed for the purpose of protecting the watertight connection between chimney and roof, around your fireplace chimney.
They cut an 8×8 inch sheet of aluminum, make 1/2 bends up and work underneath counter flashing and under every shingle. This is done in such a way that it will never need tar and will not leak. We fix it once and you never have to get it fixed again!
Roof vents and other areas to inspect in addition to flashing
Fireplace chimney flashing must be replaced if there are areas that are missing or eroded. And in older houses, most metals used were not of the best quality. If the flashing is rusted or compromised, it could affect the safety of your roof vents, by harming the metal or creating a mold, and the woodwork of the walls.
When your chimney flashing is expired, many areas need to be inspected. The attic can be invaded and perhaps even the ceilings. Devastating moisture is known to cause roof damage, dangerous attic conditions, and drywall damage to your ceilings. The best action to take is to call us to get a free estimate. Keep your family safe from harmful components of failed chimney flashing. Also make sure to keep algae off of your roof.

Now, before winter, is the best time to get your roof inspected, repaired or replaced. You want your roof nice and secure before the cold winter season.
