Chimney Flashing Repair Services in Montavilla, Roseway, and Hollywood, OR

If you notice rainwater leaking around your chimney, the likely culprit is the chimney flashing. This thin metal barrier seals the gap where your chimney meets the roof, keeping water from sneaking inside. Once flashing cracks, loosens, or rusts through, leaks can travel fast — damaging ceilings, drywall, and even the chimney itself. Our licensed team specializes in diagnosing and repairing chimney flashing issues before they lead to costly water damage. We know how Portland’s constant rain and freeze–thaw cycles wear on structures and exactly how to fix it for good.

Why Chimney Flashing Matters

Flashing isn’t decorative, it’s your chimney’s first line of defense. Proper installation creates a watertight seal between the chimney and the roof. Over time, though, even well-installed materials can loosen or corrode. Once that seal fails, rainwater can creep in between the brick and roof deck, causing leaks that often appear far from the actual source — in ceilings, walls, or around fireplaces. Left unchecked, the moisture leads to wood rot, mold, and chimney deterioration. A flashing repair today can prevent a major roof or masonry rebuild tomorrow.

Signs Your Chimney Flashing Needs Repair

If you’ve noticed any of these issues, it’s time for an inspection:

  • water stains or bubbling paint near your chimney
  • damp ceilings or walls after rainfall
  • rust streaks on the chimney or roof line
  • cracked or missing caulking where chimney meets roof
  • persistent musty odors from the fireplace
Even minor leaks can cause major damage if ignored, especially through Portland’s wet winters.

Our Chimney Flashing Repair Process

  1. Inspection & Leak Tracing – We carefully evaluate your chimney, including counterflashing, mortar joints, and roof connection. Our technicians locate active leaks and signs of hidden moisture intrusion.
  2. Precision Repairs or Full Replacement – Depending on the condition, we may reseal and reinforce existing metalwork, or replace it entirely with custom-fit components. We use only corrosion-resistant materials — typically galvanized or stainless steel — designed to stand up to Portland’s weather.
  3. Waterproofing & Final Protection – Once the flashing is secured, we seal vulnerable joints and apply professional-grade waterproofing to ensure long-term protection.
