About Stackline Chimney & Roof Leak Co.

Chimney Flashing Repair Company in Canaan, NH Near Me

Chimney flashing repair in New Hampshire usually means older farmhouses and capes, many heated with wood and many with big center chimneys. Heavy snow and ice dams are a normal part of winter, and long stretches of freeze-thaw crack crowns and wear out soft old mortar. Snow piled behind chimneys melts slowly and backs water under shingles. Many homes also have metal roofs, which need chimney flashing details made for metal rather than shingle step flashing.

  • Step flashing woven under every shingle course
  • Counter flashing set into a ground mortar joint, not caulked to the brick
  • Crowns rebuilt with a slope and a drip edge

Why call us for chimney flashing repair

Chimney Flashing Repair in Canaan, NH: Why Call Us

Chimney leak repair in New Hampshire calls for care with old masonry and planning for snow. Our crew uses lime mortar on soft brick, rebuilds crowns so they shed water and builds crickets behind wide chimneys. We run ice and water shield well up the slope and set counter flashing into ground mortar joints so ice cannot pry it loose. We also check every vent boot on the roof. On metal roofs, we flash chimneys with details made for standing seam, not shingles.

Chimneys are the whole job

Chimney flashing repair and chimney leak repair are what we do. We do not sell full roofs or siding.

Step and counter flashing

Each step piece overlaps the one below and nails to the deck, never the brick. Counter flashing goes into a ground reglet.

Crickets where code calls for them

A chimney wider than 30 inches needs a cricket on the uphill side. We build them when they are missing.

Masonry done right

Soft lime mortar on old soft brick. Sloped concrete crowns, not flat mortar caps.

Leaks without a chimney

Wall flashing, skylights, vent boots and valleys use the same methods, and we fix those too.

Photos of the work

You see what failed and what we replaced, which helps if you are talking to an insurer.

How a chimney leak job goes

Four steps to chimney flashing repair in Canaan, NH

01

Call and describe the leak

Tell us where the water shows up and when. A stain that only appears in wind-driven rain points somewhere different than water in the firebox.

02

We find the entry point

Our crew checks the crown, the brick face and the step and counter flashing, because a leak at the chimney is not always a flashing problem.

03

You get a plain written scope

We tell you what failed, what we plan to replace and what it costs before any shingle comes off.

04

We fix it with metal, not caulk

New step flashing under each shingle course and counter flashing set into a ground mortar joint. Photos before and after.

Chimney Flashing Repair FAQs

Questions about chimney flashing repair

Questions Canaan, NH homeowners ask about chimney flashing repair and chimney leak repair.

Call (833) 583-1301
How do I know if my chimney leak is flashing or something else?
Look at when it leaks. A stain that shows up during wind-driven rain from one direction often points to the flashing on that side. Water that shows up in the firebox or on the damper usually comes from the top, through an open flue or a cracked crown. Damp brick inside the attic after a long soaking rain points to porous masonry. Our crew checks all three before recommending chimney flashing repair.
What is the difference between step flashing and counter flashing?
Step flashing is the set of small L-shaped pieces tucked under each shingle course along the side of the chimney. Counter flashing is the metal set into the brick that laps down over the step flashing. The two work as a pair. One without the other leaks.
Do I need a chimney cricket?
Building code calls for a cricket on the uphill side of any chimney wider than 30 inches, unless the chimney sits on the ridge. Even on a narrower chimney, a cricket helps if you see leaves piling up or water ponding behind the brick after a storm.
Is chimney leak repair covered by homeowners insurance?
That depends on your policy and what caused the leak. Sudden storm damage is often covered, while wear and old flashing usually is not. We photograph the damage and write up what we find so you have something to show your adjuster.
What metal do you use for chimney flashing?
On most asphalt shingle roofs we use aluminum or galvanized steel. On slate, cedar or historic homes we use copper, which lasts as long as the roof. We avoid pairing copper with galvanized steel or aluminum on the same detail because the two corrode each other.
