Questions and Answers

What causes chimney flashing leaks in Newport homes, and how do you fix them?

In our area, chimney flashing leaks are often caused by seasonal temperature shifts, age, and improper installation, which break the seal. At 5 Star Construction, we start with a detailed inspection to locate the breach. Our fix involves carefully removing the old, compromised flashing, preparing the surface, and installing new, high-grade metal flashing sealed with durable, weatherproof materials to create a long-lasting barrier against Michigan's elements.

Why is roof flashing rust a common issue here, and what's your solution?

Rust on roof flashing is common in Newport due to our humidity and exposure to rain and snow. Once rust compromises the metal, it can lead to leaks and structural damage. Our solution is to assess the extent of the corrosion. For localized rust, we treat and seal the area. However, for widespread damage, we recommend and install a full replacement with modern, rust-resistant flashing materials like aluminum or coated steel, ensuring superior protection for years to come.

As a Newport homeowner, how can I tell if my flashing needs repair?

Look for key signs like water stains on ceilings or walls near the chimney, dampness in the attic after rain, or visible rust, cracks, or gaps in the metal strips around roof protrusions. If you notice any of these, it's time for a professional assessment. We offer free, no-obligation inspections to Newport residents. Our experts will identify any issues with your flashing and provide a clear, honest recommendation for repair to prevent further damage to your home.
