In our area, the most frequent culprit is failed chimney flashing—the metal seal where the chimney meets the roof. Years of expansion, contraction, and weather exposure can cause the flashing to corrode or pull away. We fix this by carefully removing the old flashing, inspecting the underlying structure for rot, and installing new, code-compliant flashing with a proper sealant. This targeted repair stops the leak at its source and protects the surrounding roof deck.

Corroded step flashing (used along roof-to-wall intersections) often shows as rust stains running down your siding or as visible crumbling or gaps in the metal when viewed from a ladder. You might also notice water stains on interior walls adjacent to the roof. We recommend a professional inspection, as this flashing is layered under shingles. Our team can assess the condition and, if needed, replace sections with durable, galvanized or aluminum flashing to prevent future leaks.

Greensboro experiences temperature swings, heavy rains, and occasional high winds. These conditions put constant stress on the seals at your roof's transitions (like chimneys, vents, and walls). High-quality, properly installed flashing acts as a flexible, watertight barrier at these vulnerable points. Without it, water can easily seep in, leading to rot, mold, and insulation damage. Our repairs focus on using materials and techniques designed to withstand our local weather, providing a durable, long-term solution.
