The roof junction flashing, face by face
Checking the flashing from the ground
A pair of binoculars shows a lot from the yard. Look where the chimney meets the roof for lifted metal edges, dark gaps along the top of the counter flashing and rust streaks on the roofing below. Look also for heavy smears of black roof cement.
Stay off the roof, especially if it is tile or wet. Tile can crack underfoot, and a wet slope is a fall risk. Write down which face showed what. Those notes help us know where to look first during the free inspection.
What the workmanship warranty covers
Our flashing work carries a workmanship warranty. It covers the flashing we installed and the way we installed it, as described in the written record. It does not extend to parts of the roof or chimney that were outside the agreed scope.
That is one reason the scope matters. If the estimate says the crown or the masonry face was left as found, the warranty follows that line. Ask us before you approve how a later leak would be looked at, and we will explain how we separate our work from other sources.
Approving the flashing work within the window
The free inspection in Opa-locka gives you findings and a written estimate before anything is decided. If you approve the flashing work within 72 hours of your free inspection, 10% comes off that service. The window counts from the inspection at your own home.
You do not have to decide on the spot. Read the estimate, ask about any line you are unsure of and compare it with other proposals if you wish. The offer is simply there for people who have the answers they need and want to go ahead.
A chimney that straddles the ridge
A chimney that comes through the roof at the ridge sits across both slopes. It has no uphill face in the usual sense. Instead, each side meets a slope running away from it, and the flashing steps down both ways from the peak.
The critical points move to where the ridge meets the chimney on each side. Those spots need pieces that turn over the ridge line and lap correctly onto the step flashing below. We check how they were formed, because a gap at the peak can let water run down inside both slopes.

What people ask about chimney flashing
Can flashing be fixed while it is raining?
The roof has to be opened at the chimney, and sealants need dry surfaces, so heavy rain usually moves the date. If rain arrives partway through, we cover the open area before stopping. In an urgent situation, we can talk through temporary steps.
What does the flashing workmanship warranty cover?
It covers the flashing we installed and the way we installed it, as described in the written record. Parts of the roof or chimney outside the agreed scope are not included, which is why the scope is written out face by face.
How is the roof protected overnight if the job runs long?
Any opening at the chimney is covered before we leave each day. The estimate says whether the job is expected to run past one day, and we tell you what state the roof is in between visits.
