It is oftentimes tough to identify exactly how your chimney is leaking. One common cause for chimney leaks is poor flashing installation. The flashing is simply a sheet of metal designed for one purpose: to seal the chimney from water. The flash is the connection between the chimney and the roof. However, the effectiveness of the flashing wears over time and needs to be repaired. An annual chimney inspection is a simple way to avoid this problem, as every inspection would catch a deteriorating chimney flash.

4. After it is screwed back in, more roofing cement is used to cover any exposed nails or screws. as well as applying it to the joint between the brick and the flashing.
