The joint where your chimney meets the roof is one of the most common places a roof leaks — Wheeler's Roofing reseals it watertight across Rome and Northwest Georgia.
Anywhere the roof meets a vertical surface, it depends on flashing to keep water out — and the chimney is the classic trouble spot. Rusted, lifted, or improperly installed chimney flashing is one of the most common sources of roof leaks. Wheeler's Roofing repairs and reseals chimney flashing across Rome and Northwest Georgia.
We inspect the step flashing, counter-flashing, and sealant around the chimney, find where water is getting past, and restore a proper watertight seal — the way it should have been done in the first place.
As a family-owned, licensed and insured contractor, we fix it right and price it fair — and all roof repairs are 10% off through August 10, 2026.
What goes wrong at the chimney and how we fix it.
Flashing that's rusted, lifted, or pulling away replaced and re-secured.
Old, cracked sealant that's letting water past renewed.
Improperly installed flashing corrected the right way.
Step and counter-flashing restored to shed water properly.
Flashing is a small part of a roof that causes an outsized share of the leaks. When it rusts, lifts, or was never installed correctly, water runs right down the chimney and into your home — often showing up as a stain on a nearby ceiling.
A proper repair isn't just a bead of caulk. It means correct step and counter-flashing that layers with the shingles and masonry to channel water away — a real, lasting seal.
We fix the flashing the right way, so the chimney stops being your roof's weak point.
Every flashing repair restores a proper, lasting seal.

Because the chimney interrupts the roof, and the only thing keeping water out at that joint is the flashing. When flashing rusts, lifts, or was installed poorly, water gets in — which is why chimneys are one of the most common leak sources.
It depends on the condition. Sometimes resealing and re-securing is enough; often, rusted or poorly installed flashing is best replaced. We’ll inspect and recommend the honest fix.
