Chimney Flashing, Crown & Cap

Where a chimney meets the roof plane is one of the most common places water finds its way in. Flashing that has lifted, corroded, or separated from the masonry, a cracked crown, or a cap that no longer sheds rain all create the same result: staining, rot, and interior leaks that show up far from where the water actually entered. This service addresses the flashing, the crown, and the cap as one connected system rather than three separate problems.

What We Look At

Step & counter flashing — checked for lift, gaps, and corrosion where it meets the chimney masonry.
Crown condition — the concrete or mortar cap inspected for cracks that let water track into the chase.
Chimney cap — confirmed it still sheds water and keeps pests and debris out of the flue.

How We Work

Infrared scanning — handheld and drone-mounted thermal cameras trace moisture back through the assembly before we open anything up.
Custom metal work — flashing bent on site with portable sheet metal brakes and hand-fit at the chimney with tin snips and seamers.
Sealant detail — caulking and heat guns used at the correct temperature so joints bond rather than peel in a season.
Wood moisture checks — decking near the chimney tested so we replace what is wet and keep what is sound.
