Frequently asked in New Haven
What exactly is chimney flashing, and why does it need repair in New Haven?
Chimney flashing is the metal barrier installed where your chimney meets your roof, designed to direct water away. In New Haven's climate, with its rain and snow, this flashing can corrode or loosen over time. When it fails, water seeps into your roof and walls, causing significant damage. It's crucial to have it inspected regularly to prevent costly problems.
If I see water damage, should I call a roofer or a chimney repair company near me?
For water damage connected to your chimney, it's best to call a chimney repair company in New Haven. While roofers handle general roof issues, a chimney specialist understands the unique construction and potential problems specific to chimneys. They can accurately diagnose if the flashing, masonry, or liner is the source of the leak. This ensures the correct repairs are made.
How can I find a reliable chimney repair company in New Haven?
What's the typical process for repairing chimney flashing?
The repair process usually begins with a thorough inspection to identify the extent of the damage. The old, damaged flashing is then carefully removed. New flashing, often made of metal like aluminum or copper, is custom-cut and installed to create a watertight seal. The surrounding masonry might also need minor repairs. Finally, the area is sealed and tested.
