Chimney Flashings

Chimney flashings are essential for protecting your chimney from the elements. To ensure maximum protection, it is important to cover the intersections of the chimney and roof and install a damp proof course (DPC). A correctly installed chimney flashing will prevent rain from seeping into the roof and should last for decades.

What is the best material for flashing?

For generations, lead has been the go-to material for these components. Including front aprons, back gutters, ridge abutments, and DPC trays.

How often should lead chimney flashing be replaced?

Lead chimney flashing can last for decades if installed correctly and maintained properly. However, its lifespan can vary depending on factors like weather conditions, the quality of the lead, and how well it's been installed. If you suspect that your lead chimney flashing is damaged, it's important to have it inspected by a professional roofer. They can assess the extent of the damage and recommend the best course of action, which may involve repair or replacement.Our latest news section has more information on roof flashings, including further information on what is a chimney flashing?
