Chimney Flashing Repair in Braintree, MA

Watertight step-and-counter flashing that stops the leaks where your chimney meets the roof.

Chimney Flashing Repair in Braintree, MA

Chimney Flashing Repair

When a ceiling stain shows up near the chimney, the flashing is the usual suspect. Flashing is the metal seal where the chimney passes through the roof, and it’s one of the most common failure points on Braintree homes — especially where a roof was replaced and the flashing was reused or caulked over instead of properly installed. We trace the leak to its real source and seal it for good.

We repair and replace step flashing, counter flashing and the saddle/cricket where needed, integrating the metal into both the roof courses and the masonry joints the way it’s supposed to be done. Where previous ‘repairs’ relied on a smear of roofing tar, we remove it and install proper flashing that actually sheds water.

A flashing leak rarely stays a flashing problem. Left alone, the water rots roof decking, ruins insulation, and works into the chimney chase. Fixing it early is a far smaller job than the interior repairs that follow — and we document the corrected work with photos.

FAQ

Chimney Flashing Repair — your questions, answered.

How do I know the leak is the flashing and not the crown or cap?+
We trace it. Crown, cap and flashing leaks each leave different signatures, and our inspection (including water testing when needed) pinpoints the real source so you only pay to fix what’s actually leaking.
Can’t I just have the flashing caulked?+
Caulk and tar are temporary at best. They fail with sun and freeze-thaw and trap water against the masonry. Properly integrated step-and-counter flashing is the lasting fix — and what we install.
Do you coordinate with roofers?+
We handle the chimney-to-roof flashing ourselves. If a leak turns out to be a broader roofing issue, we’ll tell you honestly so you can bring in the right trade.
Why does flashing fail so often?+
Because it’s sealing the joint between two materials that move differently — the masonry chimney and the roof. Over time the seal cracks and water finds the path. Re-flashing properly — step + counter-flashing — outlasts tar or caulk patches by years.
