Reflashing and repairs for chimneys in Coral Ridge
When the evidence does not point at flashing
Sometimes the evidence does not single out the flashing. Water could be coming through the roof beside the chimney, the top of the stack or the masonry face. In that case the job starts as a leak investigation rather than a flashing repair.
We say which of these we could rule out during the visit and which remain open. A hose water test may help when the job calls for it, worked from the lowest point upward. Once the flashing is confirmed as the path, the repair scope is written for it alone.
Soft decking found around the chimney
When water has been getting past the flashing for a while, the roof deck next to the chimney can soften. That is not visible until the roofing is lifted. Stepping on a soft deck is unsafe, and new flashing needs a firm base to fasten into.
We say in advance that decking condition is unknown until the area is open. If we find rot, we stop and explain what we see before any extra work goes ahead. Replacing that section of deck is a separate item. We explain whether it suits our team or a roofer, and you approve it before anyone continues.
Crown flashing is a separate job
Brick industry details also place flashing under the crown at the top of a chimney, to keep water out of the space around the flue. That flashing belongs with the crown, not with the roof junction. It is built or repaired when the crown is.
We mention it because the two are sometimes confused in quotes. Flashing repair here means the roof junction. If the crown needs attention, it appears as a separate item under its own name, with its own reasons, so you can decide on each.
Water that appears without rain
If water or a damp patch appears near the chimney on a dry day, the flashing is probably not the cause. Flashing keeps out rain. Water without rain may come from plumbing, cooling equipment, condensation or something else in the attic.
Tell us if you have seen dampness in dry weather. We still check the flashing, but we also say when the evidence points away from the chimney. That can save you from paying for a roof junction repair that would not change anything.

Common questions on reflashing a chimney
Do you lift and replace the tiles or shingles around the chimney?
We lift and restore the roofing next to the chimney as part of the flashing work. If pieces break or are too worn to reuse, replacements are listed as a separate item. Wider roofing work is a job for a roofer, and we say where our scope stops.
Is there a discount on chimney flashing work?
Yes. When you give the go-ahead inside 72 hours of your free inspection, 10% comes off the flashing work. The window counts from the inspection at your home, and nobody will press you to decide sooner than you are ready.
What happens if you find soft roof deck under the flashing?
We stop and show you before doing anything more. Replacing the soft section is a separate item, and we explain whether our team or a roofer should handle it. Nothing extra goes ahead until you approve it.
