Carrollton Premium Roofing provides professional chimney flashing in Carrollton, TX for residential and commercial properties across North Texas. If you want to see differential movement in one place, look at where a masonry chimney passes through a roof. The chimney sits on its own footing and the house sits on its slab, and around here those two things do not rise and fall together.
That is why chimney leaks are the most persistent repair we get called about, and why they come back. The joint between brick and roof plane is genuinely moving, sometimes by a visible amount between February and August, and every attempt to solve a moving joint with a bead of sealant is a bet on the weather staying still. It works for a season and reads as a fix until the next dry August.
A flashing that survives is built in two independent pieces. Step flashing is woven into the shingle courses and fastened to the deck, moving with the roof. Counterflashing is cut into a mortar joint, folded down over the step flashing and fastened to the brick, moving with the chimney. Neither piece is bonded to the other, so the joint can travel and stay watertight. That independence is the entire principle, and it is why the detail lasts.
The cut is the part that gets skipped. A proper reglet is ground into the mortar, the metal is inserted and locked, and the joint is repointed. Surface-mounted counterflashing stuck to the face of the brick with sealant is faster and cheaper, and it is the single most common thing we remove before doing the job correctly. Two footings, two schedules, one joint between them.
Anything wider than about thirty inches also needs a cricket on the uphill face. Without one, the back of the chimney becomes a dam that collects water, leaves and grit, and the roof rots there first. A framed and metal-clad saddle sheds the flow around both sides, and it should be built rather than approximated with extra flashing.
Not every chimney leak is the flashing. A cracked crown, spalled brick, a rusted chase cover on a prefabricated flue, or masonry that has gone porous will all put water in a ceiling from above the roof line. We check the whole stack before quoting, because replacing perfect flashing to solve a crown problem is a bill nobody should pay. The crown and the flashing are photographed separately so you can see which one failed.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — ring-shank decking re-nail schedules, self-adhered ice and water membrane at valleys and eaves, step flashing with counterflashing set in a masonry reglet, SBS modified asphalt shingles, UL 2218 Class 4 impact-rated laminates, ASTM D7158 Class H wind-rated laminates — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Carrollton and nearby communities including Farmers Branch, Addison, Coppell, University Park.

Materials, equipment and how we do chimney flashing
The difference between chimney flashing that lasts and chimney flashing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with ring-shank decking re-nail schedules, self-adhered ice and water membrane at valleys and eaves, step flashing with counterflashing set in a masonry reglet, SBS modified asphalt shingles, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Carrollton job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in North Texas means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
