SnY Construction | Painters & Roofing in Seattle, WA 98136

In Seattle, chimney flashing leaks are most often caused by the constant expansion and contraction of materials due to our wet-dry cycles and temperature swings, which can break the waterproof seal. Our fix involves a thorough inspection to locate the failure, removal of the old, compromised flashing, and installation of new, code-compliant step flashing and counter-flashing integrated with a high-grade waterproof membrane. We ensure a tight, durable seal that accommodates movement to prevent future leaks.

Often, yes. Many skylight leaks in Seattle homes are due to failed seals in the flashing or glazing, not a broken skylight unit itself. We first perform a precise leak detection to identify the source. If the skylight frame is sound, we repair or replace the perimeter flashing, apply fresh sealant to the glazing, and inspect the surrounding shingles. We only recommend a full replacement if the unit is damaged or outdated. Our goal is always the most effective and cost-efficient solution for your home.

As your single-point general contractor, we manage the entire project from roof to interior. After securing the roof leak at its source, we assess any water damage inside your home—like stained ceilings or damaged drywall. Our team then handles the necessary interior repairs, including drying, mold mitigation if needed, and restoration of your ceilings or walls. This integrated approach saves you time and the hassle of coordinating multiple trades, ensuring a seamless, high-quality repair from the exterior shingles to your interior finishes.
