Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

Improper Chimney Flashing Install

There are many homes where you can find an indoor fireplace and chimneys. Apart from making the home comfortable, an indoor fireplace also enhances the look and appearance of the overall room. A chimney can also enhance the look of the roofline. However, not all the home owners having chimney are taking proper care of these structures. In order to keep the chimney in the right shape, you should always pay attention towards installing a few additional items for it. Among all these items, chimney flashing seems to be the most important one. With time a chimney can come across different issues. Cracks as well as crevices can come up with time. As a chimney use to resist high amount of heat during the use, it can also come across degradation. Due to the cracks, water can come inside and this can lead the way for more issues. Well, chimney flashing is the metal that is applied at the sealing area of the roof and the chimney. This needs to be installed properly and this can be only done while hiring a professional chimney sweep.

Chimney flashing can also come across different issues like breaking up or it can become loose if this is not installed properly. This can happen due to the high wind flow or the weather conditions. Improper installation of the chimney flashing can also hamper the roof as it can come across deterioration easily. Chimney leaks can also come up which is a very common thing to look at once the chimney flashing is installed improperly. Chimney flashing is the construction detail that is used to protect and seal joints between the building's roof as well as chimney from the water penetration. Joints made by intersection of chimney and roof are among most vulnerable parts of the roofing systems. They will expand and contract constantly with response to the changes in temperature, humidity, and age. Higher the number of these projections, greater will be the potential for leaks. Flashing can be used at such intersections in order to keep the rainwater leaking in the building. This makes joints at such junctions watertight, whereas at a same time allowing natural contraction and expansion of the materials to carry on.

The rusty chimney flashing is 60years old. Stone chimney is in very good shape. There're a few cracks or voids in mortar joints however on whole this structure is sound. Chimney flashing on other hand is at bad shape. Many joints are open and loose to rain. Old metal, painted or galvanized steel when installed, is solid. However, mortar joints are very loose. Original caulking still is in place however dried out, falling out and deteriorating the joints. Also, there were attempts in sealing joints with the new tar caulking however that failed and wore out quickly. Wooden structure of house has settled with time but chimney, set on firm foundation, keeps the original position. First shingle step flashing has lifted where this was bent over apron flashing & has raised slate shingles on side of a chimney.
