Flashing and Vent Repair in Reno That Gets It Done Fast
Flashing is the thin metal (or rubber) that seals the places where your roof meets something else: a chimney, a wall, a skylight, a plumbing vent or a valley where two slopes meet. These transitions are the weakest points on any roof, and they are the first place we look when a roof leaks.
Reno sun and temperature swings are hard on sealants and rubber vent boots. Boots crack, caulk shrinks and flashing pulls away. The upside is that these are usually quick, targeted repairs that stop a leak without touching the rest of your roof.
Flashing and vent repairs we do
Plumbing vent boots
We replace cracked rubber boots, or install longer-lasting metal or lead-style options.
Chimney flashing
Step flashing, counterflashing and crickets around the chimney.
Skylight flashing
Re-seal and re-flash leaking skylights.
Wall and dormer flashing
Step flashing and kickout flashing where roof meets wall.
Valley flashing
Open or rusted valleys channel a lot of water and fail often.
Exhaust and roof vents
Damaged or loose roof vents, turbines and exhaust caps.
Why flashing repair is a fast fix
Because flashing leaks are localized, the repair is too. We remove the failed component, replace or re-form the flashing, seal and integrate it with the roofing around it. Most boot and flashing repairs take about an hour.
Sealant alone is a temporary patch. Where it makes sense, we replace the flashing instead of just slathering on caulk, so you are not calling us again next season. If we see that the roof around the flashing is also worn out, we will tell you.

Flashing and Vent Repair in Reno: Common Questions
How do I know if my flashing is bad?
Common signs include rust, gaps, lifted edges, cracked sealant and water stains near the chimney, walls, skylights or vents.
How long does it take to replace a vent boot?
A plumbing vent boot is typically a quick job, often under an hour.
Is caulk a permanent flashing fix?
Usually not. Sealant breaks down in sun and temperature swings. Proper flashing replacement lasts much longer.
Why does my chimney leak?
Chimney leaks usually come from failed flashing, cracked mortar or a damaged chimney crown. We repair the roof-side flashing and can advise on masonry issues.
Can you fix skylight leaks?
Yes. We re-seal and re-flash skylights. If the unit itself has failed, we will tell you.
