Chimney Flashing Repair in Marinwood: FAQs

Because most are patched with caulk instead of rebuilt. In Marinwood, the only lasting fix is new step flashing woven into the courses plus counter flashing cut into the mortar joints. Caulk is a bandage on a structural detail.

We seal the counter flashing into sound mortar joints. If your mortar is crumbling, we will flag it — masonry repointing is a separate trade, but the flashing detail we install works with sound joints.

We prove it: attic tracing plus a controlled water test on the chimney detail before we recommend the repair.
