Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

Improper Chimney Flashing Install

The metal connected between the chimney and the roof is called the chimney flashing. It keeps the rain and snow out of the roof seams and doesn't allow moisture inside the roof inner structure as well. If this is not installed correctly, there will be chimney leaks. The flashing is prone to rust and needs to be replaced immediately if it becomes corroded or broken. Improper chimney flashing installation will also make the roof deteriorate earlier than the normal timeframe than it should. Hence, the right kind of maintenance to your chimney flashing is the key and that should be done with professional help. Once your chimney flashing is rusted or deteriorated, it is time to replace it with help from a professional chimney sweep. This will prevent the issue from escalating into a bigger deal such as water damage inside the chimney.

The chimney flashing may also come loose or can easily break because of extreme weather and severe winds. To avoid these accidents, it is better to have a regular inspection that includes the roof and the flashing. The right type of metal should be used as a flashing as well as counter and step flashings and of course, the apron flashing which is located on the part of the chimney that is sloping down on the roof. The counter flashing is the one who protects against water that is getting behind the top edge of the step flashing; it prevents the water from seeping down the chimney itself.

Improper installation of chimney flashing is the main reason for a leaking roof; it has nothing to do with the shingles. If the chimney is not directly attached to the house frame, the flashing, if it is made up of a poor material can pull away. If it is just made up of an ordinary metal, it can corrode and will create a leak. To make sure that you will have a proper chimney flashing installation, ask assistance from a chimney sweep or a chimney service technician. They will be glad to help you when it comes to these matters.

Improper installation of the chimney flashing can trigger several problems. When you are installing a chimney that means you need to install the whole structure properly and for this to happen, you will surely need professional help. There are many things that you need to consider while performing a chimney installation. Among all these elements, installation of the chimney flashing properly can make a huge difference for sure. If you are not sure about how to do this, you should ask a professional chimney sweep to complete this task in a better and safe manner.
