About Stackline Chimney & Roof Leak Co.

Chimney Flashing Repair Company in Alabama Near Me

Chimney flashing repair in Alabama is mostly a rain problem. Mobile gets more rainfall than almost any other large city in the country, and Gulf storms push that rain sideways into every joint on the roof. A lot of Alabama homes are brick ranches from the 1960s and 1970s with a masonry chimney on the roof slope, and many were reroofed without new step flashing. Our crew sees the result: stained ceilings next to the fireplace and rotted decking behind the chimney.

Why call us for chimney flashing repair

Chimney Flashing Repair in Alabama: Why Call Us

Chimney leak repair in Alabama has to hold up to hurricane season and summer thunderstorms that dump inches in an hour. We set counter flashing into ground mortar joints instead of caulking it to the brick, because caulk does not last in Gulf humidity and heat. North Alabama gets enough winter freezes to crack flat mortar crowns, so we check the top of the chimney too, not just the flashing.

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.

Chimney Flashing Repair FAQs

Questions about chimney flashing repair

Common questions about chimney flashing repair in Alabama.

Call (833) 583-1301

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.

Will you match my existing shingles?

We reuse the shingles we remove when they are in good shape and bring matching replacements when they are not. On older roofs the color may not be a perfect match, and we will tell you that before we start.

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.

Can a chimney leak be fixed in winter?

Flashing and caps can be installed in cold weather if the roof is dry and free of ice. Mortar work and crown repairs need temperatures above about 40 degrees for the mix to cure, so in cold months we may tarp and flash first, then finish the masonry in spring.
