What Is Roof Flashing (And Why It Matters)?
Roof flashing is the protective metal (and related waterproof detailing) installed at roof joints and penetrations to direct water away. When flashing fails, water can get beneath roofing materials and cause interior leaks or hidden damage.
Flashing is commonly found at:
Chimneys- Roof valleys
- Plumbing vent pipes
- Skylights
- Dormers and roof-to-wall connections
- Step flashing at sidewalls
Signs You Need Roof Flashing Repair
Flashing issues can cause leaks that appear far from the source. A small flashing gap can lead to big problems.
Common warning signs include:
- Ceiling stains or water spots near chimneys or exterior walls
- Leaks during wind-driven rain
- Rusted, loose, or visibly lifted flashing
- Cracked or failing sealant around flashing areas
- Damp attic insulation near roof transitions
- Repeated leaks that return after “patch” work
- Water staining on brick near the chimney (sometimes flashing-related)

Roof Flashing FAQs
Is roof flashing a common cause of leaks?
Yes. Many roof leaks start at chimneys, valleys, and roof-to-wall transitions—areas where flashing is critical.
Can flashing be repaired without replacing the roof?
Often, yes. If the roof is still in good shape and the leak is localized, flashing repair/replacement can solve the issue without a full replacement.
Do you repair chimney flashing?
Yes. Chimney flashing is one of the most frequent leak sources. We inspect and repair or replace as needed.
Do I need a permit for flashing work?
Permit requirements vary by municipality and the scope of work. If a permit is required, we’ll help confirm what applies.
