Wall and sidewall flashing repair covers the spot where a sloped roof runs into a vertical wall. It is the same problem as a chimney, and on a lot of homes with no chimney at all, it is where the leak really is: a porch roof against the house, a dormer cheek wall, or a garage roof that tucks into a second story.

The correct detail is step flashing under every shingle course, with the siding or a separate counter flashing lapping over it. At the bottom of the wall, where the roof edge meets the siding, there has to be a kick-out flashing, a small bent diverter that pushes water into the gutter instead of down behind the siding. Missing kick-outs are one of the most common causes of rotted wall sheathing we see.

On stucco and stone veneer homes, the fix often means cutting back the finish to reach the flashing, then patching it after the metal is right. On vinyl or fiber cement siding, we pull the bottom courses, reflash, and reinstall the siding.

This work pairs well with skylight flashing repair if a leak shows up in more than one spot. Call (833) 583-1301 and our crew will trace it.

How a chimney leak job goes

Four steps to chimney flashing repair in Fort Worth, TX

Call and describe the leak

Tell us where the water shows up and when. A stain that only appears in wind-driven rain points somewhere different than water in the firebox.

02

We find the entry point

Our crew checks the crown, the brick face and the step and counter flashing, because a leak at the chimney is not always a flashing problem.

03

We tell you what failed, what we plan to replace and what it costs before any shingle comes off.

04

We fix it with metal, not caulk

New step flashing under each shingle course and counter flashing set into a ground mortar joint. Photos before and after.

Chimney Flashing Repair FAQs

Questions about chimney flashing repair

Questions we hear about Wall & Sidewall Flashing Repair in Fort Worth, TX.

Call (833) 583-1301
How long does chimney flashing repair take?
Most step and counter flashing jobs on a single chimney take a day. Adding a cricket, crown rebuild or tuckpointing can make it two. Waterproofing is often a second visit because fresh mortar needs time to cure first.
What metal do you use for chimney flashing?
On most asphalt shingle roofs we use aluminum or galvanized steel. On slate, cedar or historic homes we use copper, which lasts as long as the roof. We avoid pairing copper with galvanized steel or aluminum on the same detail because the two corrode each other.
Can a chimney leak be fixed in winter?
Flashing and caps can be installed in cold weather if the roof is dry and free of ice. Mortar work and crown repairs need temperatures above about 40 degrees for the mix to cure, so in cold months we may tarp and flash first, then finish the masonry in spring.
Why does my chimney leak only in heavy storms?
Light rain runs off. Heavy, wind-driven rain gets pushed sideways into loose counter flashing, through open mortar joints and into an uncapped flue. If your leak only shows up in big storms, the flashing and the brick face are the first things we check.
How do I get a quote for chimney flashing repair?
Call (833) 583-1301. We will ask a few questions about where the water shows up and what the roof looks like, then set a time for our crew to look at it in person.
