Chimney flashing made easy

[danielstover]

Chad, experienced, skilled, talented, responsible, reliable, fair and trustworthy is almost impossible to find anywhere anymore. Hopefully your customers realize how truly fortunate they are to have you in their area and to have been able to choose to hire you! A chimney can't handle very many bandits and bandaids! Always impressed with your work, your transparency and willingness to help educate. Great videos! Thanks for sharing... 😁👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Sir,
You do beautiful work. I have never seen a lead flashing installation. Thank you for a detailed explanation of the how and why of your installations. Wonderful job!!

Beautiful work on the chimney lead flashing. In Great Britain some of the masons cut just once piece of lead for each side of the chimney. They then cut the slots in the top one half part of the lead which is inserted in the mortar joint. Looks like stair steps with a point. The way your lead is cut accomplishes the same thing just a different style. As far as roof underlayment what I have always described it as the water barrier for the roof, what you put on top of it just holds it in place.

I love this video and your honesty and I’m not even 5 mins in.tropic thunder reference was the best so far😂

You’re obviously intelligent and very good at what you do. I have a 100+ year old cabin on an island, off grid, with a brick fireplace and chimney. We do all of our own maintenance and repair because it is impossible and or prohibitively expensive to get others to do it. Chimney flashing is daunting to me and our chimney is a leaky, tarred-up mess. Is there any product or method you can recommend to DIYers to make reflashing easier, less expensive and more practical? I could never do the kind of work you do. I’d value your advice. Thanks.

Awesome step by steps man! love the detail. would love to see he measurements, how 2, bends into chimney, and more of that detailed reasoning. Additionally, like you finding what's wrong and why

Great video - can you clarify the terms for each layer? Is it step flashing > iceshield > shingle/counterflashing interlay ? Thanks

[lizzapaolia]

Absolutely fantastic work ethic. Hopefully those in your trade emulate your values and craftsmanship.
Thank you again for sharing your videos 🙏

Great instructional video and superb craftsmanship, Chad! Love how you keep your jobs in perspective of the bigger world. I'm trying to figure out how to do chimney flashing for my soon to be new metal roof. Do you have video dealing with flashing for metal roofs to help me along?

Great job I’ve been doing roofs for 30 years and I know when I see professionalism this is it

[SC-hcvy]

you mentioned "roofers" screwed up the flashing and etc. I do have similar leak with my chimney and flashing. Who do I call for help instead of roofer? thanks

[efrentroncoso]

I Appreciate your craftsmanship, great discussion regarding money

[merbesfield]

Do you have any video on a job like this but on a stone fireplace? I have a job coming up with a 100 year old chimney and we are installing 5V old school metal roofing. The prior work is a mess and the stone is very rustic as this is an old cabin. Want to do it right. Thx

[lizzapaolia]

You're honesty is commendable. So my clowns have no idea what they are Keeping the business honest 🙏👌

[williamdyckman]

Your video is so professional and your work is so top notch !!

[Oldhouseguy]

Looks great - just watched a video where they cut right through the brick and used one piece of flashing instead of step flashing. Looks so cheap. I do have a question. I have seen step flashing overlap the roof shingles on top not underneath the shingles. Why is that done?

[muhammadqazi]

I am in northeast Connecticut….I liked your work. How can I get in touch wit you to fix mine

[albluthe]

I watch all your videos. It’s great seeing a true professional at work. All the time watching I could have probably done my chimney flashing by now! I have a question, you mentioned the Lexel silicone. Is that better than the “ Through the Roof” stuff? Thanks

Great video! Grew up in masonry taught by masonry contractor father. Wife received estimate under 75 to relay for $2600 😬. I’ll do a complete tear down, replace and sleep well! Thanks
