The metal doing the real work at every joint
Flashing seals the joints where your roof meets a chimney, wall, valley, or vent pipe. Shingles can look fine and a roof will still leak if the flashing at one of those points has rusted through or lost its sealant.
Replacing it stops water intrusion at that exact leak point and keeps rot from spreading into the deck below. A small gap at a vent boot left alone turns into a soaked deck and a ceiling stain two rooms away. A leaking bitumen membrane can show the same symptoms, worth a look if your roof is flat.
- Stops water at the leak point
- Restores a watertight seal
- Keeps rot out of the deck

Joint types we reseal
Four joints, four different fixes
The type of joint decides the method.
Each gets matched to the joint it protects, not covered over with more sealant.
| Flashing type | How we fix it |
|---|---|
| Chimney flashing | Step and counter flashing layered and re-sealed against the brick |
| Valley flashing | Metal channel pulled and replaced where two slopes meet |
| Step flashing | Individual pieces re-set along the wall line |
| Drip edge and vent boots | Rusted metal or cracked rubber swapped at the edge and pipe |
One visit, traced to where the water gets in
We work from the specific spot causing trouble, chimney, valley, vent, or wall line. Four steps get you there.
- Chimney
- Valley
- Vent
- Wall line
Find the exact leak point
We find the exact leak point first, not just the general area.
Pull the failed metal
The rusted or failed metal comes off next.
Set matched new flashing
New metal or a matched rubber boot goes in after, sized to that spot.
Water-test the seal
We run water over the repair before we leave, while we are still on the roof.
A full roof inspection checks every flashing point, not just the one giving you trouble, if you want the whole system looked at while we are up there.
A bead of sealant is not a repair
A patch over sealant
- Caulk goes over the rusted metal and looks fixed for a season.
- Then it cracks, and the same leak point opens back up.
- Usually in the next hard rain.
Our full swap
- A full metal or rubber swap, matched to the joint.
- Backed by our warranty.
- It costs more than a patch. It does not call you back next winter.

Flashing replacement questions, answered
Call now(347) 835-5040Flashing problems show up as leaks near a chimney, wall, valley, or vent pipe rather than the open field of the roof. Rust streaks or missing sealant at one of those joints usually points to flashing. We confirm it on site before quoting anything.
A single-point job, a chimney or vent boot, finishes in a day. A larger job covering multiple valleys takes longer, and we give a real timeframe at the estimate.
No. It stands on its own unless the inspection turns up separate problems nearby.
Yes. Every flashing replacement carries our workmanship warranty, and we tell you exactly what it covers before work starts.
