About Stackline Chimney & Roof Leak Co.

Chimney Flashing Repair Company in Claiborne, MD Near Me

Chimney flashing repair in Maryland covers Baltimore rowhouses with shared chimneys and flat roofs, colonial homes across the suburbs and waterfront homes on the Chesapeake. Nor'easters and tropical storm remnants drive rain sideways, and winter freeze-thaw cracks old mortar crowns. Salt air near the bay corrodes cheap galvanized flashing. Many older Maryland chimneys also have flat mortar caps instead of real concrete crowns, and those crack and let water straight into the brick. Water entering at the top often shows up far below as a flashing leak.

  • 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 Claiborne, MD: Why Call Us

Chimney leak repair in Maryland depends on the roof. On rowhouse flat roofs, our crew flashes chimneys and parapets with details made for low-slope roofing. On sloped roofs, we weave step flashing and set counter flashing into ground mortar joints. Near the water, we use aluminum, copper or stainless materials that last in salt air. We also rebuild flat mortar caps as sloped concrete crowns and tuckpoint soft joints with mortar matched to the brick. After a storm, we tarp first and come back for the permanent fix once the roof is dry.

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 Claiborne, MD

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 Claiborne, MD 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.
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.
My house has no chimney. Can you still help with a roof leak?
Yes. Much of our work is wall flashing, skylight flashing, vent pipe boots and valley flashing, which use the same methods as a chimney. On homes without masonry chimneys, those are where most leaks start.
How do I get a quote for chimney flashing repair?
Call (833) 583-1301. We will ask a few questions about where the water shows up and what the roof looks like, then set a time for our crew to look at it in person.
