Serrecchia Roofing Services | Roofing Services in Wallingford, CT 06492

Wallingford's climate, with its cold winters and temperature swings, creates a perfect storm for flashing issues. The repeated freezing and thawing causes metal flashing to expand and contract, which can loosen sealant and pull nails, leading to separation. This is especially problematic around chimneys and roof valleys, where water runoff is concentrated. Our repairs address these specific stress points with flexible, weather-resistant materials designed for our local conditions.

A proper chimney flashing repair starts with a thorough inspection to locate the exact source of the leak. We then carefully remove the compromised sections of old flashing and any damaged roofing materials. We install new, code-compliant step flashing and counter-flashing, integrating it seamlessly with your existing shingles and chimney masonry. The final step involves applying high-grade, waterproof sealants at all critical joints to create a durable, watertight barrier that will withstand Connecticut's harsh weather.

In many cases, yes. If the surrounding shingles and roof deck are in good condition, we can perform a targeted repair. This involves carefully lifting the adjacent shingles, resecuring or replacing the separated flashing with new fasteners, and applying a professional-grade sealant. We then re-seal the shingles to ensure a seamless, waterproof finish. Our goal is always to provide the most effective and cost-efficient solution to stop your leak and prevent further damage to your home.
