Chimney re-flashing work typically involves removing and replacing the metal flashing around the chimney where it intersects with the roof to ensure a watertight seal. The process includes inspecting the existing flashing for damage or corrosion, selecting appropriate flashing materials, and carefully installing or repairing the flashing to prevent leaks and water intrusion. When evaluating requests, details such as the chimney's age, the type of roofing material, the extent of damage or deterioration, and the specific areas requiring attention are important to determine the scope of work and estimate costs accurately.
