About Stackline Chimney & Roof Leak Co.

Chimney Flashing Repair Company in Laurel, MT Near Me

Chimney flashing repair in Montana deals with heavy snow, strong wind and very cold winters. Wood stoves are common, and many homes have masonry or metal chimneys that take a beating. Snow piles up behind chimneys, ice dams form at eaves, and repeated freeze-thaw cracks crowns and loosens brick. Chinook winds can swing temperatures quickly, adding to the stress. Many rural homes also have tall chimneys sticking well above the roofline, which take the full force of the wind.

  • Step flashing woven under every shingle course
  • Counter flashing set into a ground mortar joint, not caulked to the brick
  • Crowns rebuilt with a slope and a drip edge

Why call us for chimney flashing repair

Chimney Flashing Repair in Laurel, MT: Why Call Us

Chimney leak repair in Montana means building for snow and wind. Our crew adds crickets behind wide chimneys, runs ice and water shield up the slope and clamps down caps so wind cannot lift them. We check metal stove pipes for proper boots and storm collars. Masonry work is timed for weather that allows mortar to cure. Where brick soaks up rain, we apply a breathable water repellent after the mortar cures. We also check every vent boot on the roof.

Chimneys are the whole job

Chimney flashing repair and chimney leak repair are what we do. We do not sell full roofs or siding.

Step and counter flashing

Each step piece overlaps the one below and nails to the deck, never the brick. Counter flashing goes into a ground reglet.

Crickets where code calls for them

A chimney wider than 30 inches needs a cricket on the uphill side. We build them when they are missing.

Masonry done right

Soft lime mortar on old soft brick. Sloped concrete crowns, not flat mortar caps.

Leaks without a chimney

Wall flashing, skylights, vent boots and valleys use the same methods, and we fix those too.

Photos of the work

You see what failed and what we replaced, which helps if you are talking to an insurer.

How a chimney leak job goes

Four steps to chimney flashing repair in Laurel, MT

01

Call and describe the leak

Tell us where the water shows up and when. A stain that only appears in wind-driven rain points somewhere different than water in the firebox.

02

We find the entry point

Our crew checks the crown, the brick face and the step and counter flashing, because a leak at the chimney is not always a flashing problem.

03

You get a plain written scope

We tell you what failed, what we plan to replace and what it costs before any shingle comes off.

04

We fix it with metal, not caulk

New step flashing under each shingle course and counter flashing set into a ground mortar joint. Photos before and after.

Chimney Flashing Repair FAQs

Questions about chimney flashing repair

Questions Laurel, MT homeowners ask about chimney flashing repair and chimney leak repair.

Call (833) 583-1301
Can you just seal my chimney flashing with caulk?
Caulk is a temporary patch, not a repair. Sealant bonds poorly to dusty brick and breaks down in the sun, so a caulked joint usually fails within a couple of years. A lasting fix is step flashing under each shingle course with counter flashing set into a ground mortar joint above it.
What is the difference between step flashing and counter flashing?
Step flashing is the set of small L-shaped pieces tucked under each shingle course along the side of the chimney. Counter flashing is the metal set into the brick that laps down over the step flashing. The two work as a pair. One without the other leaks.
Will you match my existing shingles?
We reuse the shingles we remove when they are in good shape and bring matching replacements when they are not. On older roofs the color may not be a perfect match, and we will tell you that before we start.
Is chimney leak repair covered by homeowners insurance?
That depends on your policy and what caused the leak. Sudden storm damage is often covered, while wear and old flashing usually is not. We photograph the damage and write up what we find so you have something to show your adjuster.
My house has no chimney. Can you still help with a roof leak?
Yes. Much of our work is wall flashing, skylight flashing, vent pipe boots and valley flashing, which use the same methods as a chimney. On homes without masonry chimneys, those are where most leaks start.
