Chimney Flashing
Chimney Flashing
Chimney flashing, an essential component of the roofing system, is responsible for sealing the joint between the chimney and the roof to prevent water leaks. At Mayancelas Jr. Roofing LLC, we offer this specialized service in Long Island, Queens, and The Bronx, guaranteeing protection, durability, and a professional finish for every home. When flashing is damaged or poorly installed, moisture can seep in and cause significant structural deterioration.
