Weatherproofing
Flashing
Flashing is the material at the base of chimneys, stacks, and vents that is designed to waterproof the juncture where they penetrate the roof. Faulty or deteriorated flashings can cause leaks and water damage to the surrounding roof deck or eventually the interior finishes of your home. FlashSeal is a long-lasting flashing repair system designed to stop leaks from faulty or deteriorated flashings around chimneys, stacks, and vents. A professionally installed FlashSeal application carries a 7 year warranty. A properly installed FlashSeal application is like installing a custom fit waterproof boot around the base of your chimney. FlashSeal's strength and flexibility will provide years of trouble free service to help stop the damaging effects of water that can enter your home from a faulty or deteriorated flashing system.
Water Repellent
Without being protected all new and existing masonry chimneys are susceptible to water damage, even if repaired. Because chimneys project above the roof line, they are vulnerable to the elements. Water damage can be prevented. ChimneySaver Water Repellents come with a 10 Year Warranty and have been used by chimney professionals for nearly 20 years. It reduces water penetration into the masonry by 99.9% according to ASTM tests conducted at the University of Wyoming. It is also 100% vapor permeable, which means it won't trap water vapors.
