About Stackline Chimney & Roof Leak Co.
Chimney Flashing Repair Company in Stahlstown, PA Near Me
Chimney flashing repair in Pennsylvania covers Philadelphia rowhomes, Pittsburgh brick houses and stone farmhouses across the state. Many of these chimneys are very old, and freeze-thaw winters crack crowns and wear out soft mortar. Flat-roof rowhomes have their own flashing details, and older sloped roofs often have flashing that was never replaced during reroofing. Many stone farmhouse chimneys also have wide tops that need a cricket and careful counter flashing into irregular stone joints.
- 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 Stahlstown, PA: Why Call Us
Chimney leak repair in Pennsylvania calls for matching the repair to the masonry. Our crew uses lime mortar on soft old brick and stone, rebuilds crowns and regrinds reglets for counter flashing. On rowhome flat roofs, we flash chimneys and parapets with low-slope materials. On slate roofs, we use copper flashing. We also build crickets behind wide chimneys for snow and leaves and apply breathable water repellent where the brick soaks up rain. After a storm, we tarp first and come back for the permanent fix once the roof is dry.
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.

Chimney Flashing Repair FAQs
Questions about chimney flashing repair
Questions Stahlstown, PA homeowners ask about chimney flashing repair and chimney leak repair.
Call (833) 583-1301Can 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.
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.
Can a chimney leak be fixed in winter?
Flashing and caps can be installed in cold weather if the roof is dry and free of ice. Mortar work and crown repairs need temperatures above about 40 degrees for the mix to cure, so in cold months we may tarp and flash first, then finish the masonry in spring.
How do I get a quote for chimney flashing repair?
Call (833) 583-1301. We will ask a few questions about where the water shows up and what the roof looks like, then set a time for our crew to look at it in person.
