Flashing Repair (Chimney, Wall, Valley) in Bloomington, IL
Where a roof meets a chimney, a wall, or a valley — that’s where leaks usually start. We reseal or replace metal flashing in these spots to get a continuous water barrier back in place. Full roof replacement isn’t needed for this, most of the time.
What Bloomington’s Weather Does to Flashing
Freeze-thaw cycles and ice dams forming around chimneys and valleys speed up flashing failure, especially on the asphalt-shingled homes near Illinois State and the downtown historic district. Roof penetration work usually needs a permit through the city, and we coordinate that inspection while working around the wind and hail exposure that tends to loosen valley flashing here in the first place.
Signs the Flashing’s Gone
Staining on the ceiling, shingles coming loose along a valley, granules piling up in the gutters — early signs flashing’s failed. We start with a moisture scan and a visual check, then put in new step flashing, counter-flashing, or custom-fabricated valley metal that matches what’s already on the roof. Wait too long on this and water reaches the decking and insulation, and now mold’s a real risk along with a bigger bill.
