Beaumont Roof Pros provides professional chimney flashing in Beaumont, TX for residential and commercial properties across Southeast Texas. A chimney is a wall standing in the middle of a roof with water running at it from above. In this rainfall it is the single most reliable leak source we find, and the fix is nearly always geometry rather than sealant.
The cricket is the piece most often missing. Any chimney wider than 30 inches across the slope needs a saddle behind it to split the flow, and code has required that for a long time. We build ours framed in lumber and metal, sloped at least half an inch per foot, with valley lining membrane run up into it. Without one, debris collects behind the chimney and rots the deck at the back wall first.
Flashing is two separate pieces doing two separate jobs. Step flashing is woven course by course into the shingles, one piece per course, never a single continuous L-strip run up the side. Counterflashing is then cut into a reglet in the mortar joint, folded down over the step flashing, and sealed at the reglet only. Surface-mounted counterflashing caulked to brick is the most common thing we tear off, and it fails within a few seasons here.
Masonry itself is often the leak. Beaumont brick and mortar spend much of the year saturated, and a chimney with open joints, a cracked crown or no cap takes water straight down the flue no matter how good the flashing is. We inspect the crown and cap first. A repointed joint and a stainless cap are often cheaper than the roof work somebody else quoted, and we will say when that is the whole answer.
On chase-style chimneys with a metal chase cover, we look for a cover that is flat rather than sloped and holding a puddle. A flat cover with a seam through the middle will rust through, and replacing it with a sloped, cross-broken cover with proper standoffs is a straightforward job that ends a recurring leak.
We photograph everything behind the chimney before we close it up, because that area is invisible from the ground and it is where the money goes. If the deck under the cricket has gone soft, that shows up in the photographs and in the change order, with the reading that produced it. Nobody enjoys that conversation, and it is much worse two years later.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — ASTM D1970 self-adhered underlayment, 26-gauge W-profile open valley metal, kick-out diverter flashing, tapered polyisocyanurate crickets, six-inch K-style aluminum gutter, three-by-four downspout outlets — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Beaumont and nearby communities including Port Arthur, Nederland, Groves, Port Neches.

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 ASTM D1970 self-adhered underlayment, 26-gauge W-profile open valley metal, kick-out diverter flashing, tapered polyisocyanurate crickets, 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 Beaumont 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 Southeast Texas means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
