Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

How Does a Professional Chimney Sweep Repair Chimney Flashing?

Chimney flashing is considered as one of the most important element for just any homeowner who uses to have a chimney at home. It's the chimney flashing that you can easily find at the sealing area of the roof and the chimney. This area needs to be sealed properly. Otherwise, it can come across cracks and the water may starts to drip into the chimney and home. With time chimney flashing can also deteriorate and may need a repair work. And when this type of situation comes in, you should contact a professional chimney sweep instead of doing this on your own. Most of the time, people believe that completing this type of work on their own can save money. But you should ask yourself first that whether or not you have the right tools, equipment and ideas to do this type of repair work. A professional chimney sweep can do this type of work perfectly and with a higher accuracy level. Usually the time taken to complete this complex work is one day.

This type of work often starts while removing the flashing and shingles. Then the shingles are replaced and this work is further followed by the installation of the base flashing. After this the front flashing is also installed. Once these works are completed, the chimney sweep installs the cap flashing and the side flashing. And at last the cap flashing is sealed. It's the flashing used for the chimney that is usually made of high quality material. Right flashing around the chimney includes 2 layers. First is called as step flashing: L-shaped metal sheet are woven in shingle courses or lapped up side of chimney. Then comes counter flashing: the second layer of the metal is been embedded in chimney mortar joints or folded down in covering top of step flashing. Corners are particularly vulnerable and cut and bend metal around corner. Even at the quality installation, it leaves small spot that must get sealed with high quality of urethane caulk.

The caulk will work loose with time. Suppose flashing looks in very good condition, and recaulking must take care of this problem. But, caulk isn't the substitute for rightly overlapped flashing materials. This kind of the metal used for the flashing generally depends at where you are living. Galvanized steel and aluminum are usual options. Copper is a longest lived, because it is expensive, we see only on the high end jobs. One more benefit of copper is corners are soldered for the watertight connection. Masons are very partial to the lead flashing that is easy and soft to bend for shape. However, no matter what material is been used, it should get layered rightly if water is kept out. When chimney is in bottom of the roof slope, we install the cricket, small diversion roof, which prevents the water from pounding at up-roof part in chimney. You can install the asphalt shingles over membrane to blend cricket with rest of a roof.
