Chimney & Flashing Repair in La Habra, California

The chimney is the most common leak point on a La Habra roof. The metal flashing around the base expands and contracts with the temperature swings, and the sealant cracks. Chimney and flashing repair in La Habra means sealing the gap before the winter rain finds it.

Signs Your La Habra Chimney Flashing Needs Repair

• Water stains on the ceiling near the chimney — the leak is at the flashing
• Cracked or missing sealant at the chimney base — the old caulk has failed
• Rust or corrosion on the step flashing — the metal has aged
• Loose or pulled-away flashing — the thermal cycling moved the metal
• Brick or mortar damage on the chimney — the water got in and froze
