Puyallup Roof Pros provides professional chimney flashing in Puyallup, WA for residential and commercial properties across Pierce County and the Key Peninsula. This market has three completely different things that people call a chimney, and the flashing for each of them is a different job. Confusing them is the single most common cause of the chimney leaks we are called out to in Puyallup.
The first is a masonry stack, mostly on the older houses in the valley core and on the foothill towns east of here. Those want two-piece flashing with the counterflashing cut into a mortar joint and a framed cricket on the uphill side when the stack is wide. Sealant against brick is a two-year repair and we will not do it.
The second is a factory-built chase, common on the nineteen-eighties and nineteen-nineties builds up on South Hill. It looks like a chimney and it is a plywood box with a metal flue inside, and its usual failures are a flat chase cover holding water and a rotted framed base that has been leaking down the outside of the flue for years. Those need a cross-broken metal cover, not more caulk.
The third is a plain double-wall gas vent, which is what most of Puyallup actually has, and it wants a listed roof flashing sized to the outer pipe with the storm collar drawn down above it. It is a fifteen minute detail done right and a recurring leak done wrong. Storm collars matter out of all proportion: a loose one runs water down the outside of the pipe with no sign at the flashing.
Which of the three you have depends heavily on where you are. Out toward Wilkeson the census still records almost 40 percent of households burning wood, and those are real solid-fuel chimneys with real clearance requirements. In the city, under one percent of homes burn wood, and the tall metal thing on the roof is almost certainly serving a furnace.
We photograph what we find and name it correctly on the estimate, because a chase cover and a masonry reflash differ by a factor of three in price and homeowners are routinely quoted one and sold the other. We will also tell you when the answer is not a roofer. A spalling stack, a broken crown or a flue needing a liner is chimney work, and we will hand you to somebody who does it.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — a Type B double-wall gas vent and the air clearance it is listed for, a storm collar drawn down onto the pipe above the flashing cone, a factory-built chase capped with a cross-broken metal cover, a three-inch plastic condensing-appliance termination under an eave, a water heater orphaned on a vent sized for the furnace that left, a listed roof flashing sized to the outer wall rather than the pipe — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Puyallup and nearby communities including Tacoma, South Hill, Artondale, Gig Harbor.

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 a Type B double-wall gas vent and the air clearance it is listed for, a storm collar drawn down onto the pipe above the flashing cone, a factory-built chase capped with a cross-broken metal cover, a three-inch plastic condensing-appliance termination under an eave, 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 Puyallup 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 Pierce County and the Key Peninsula means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Puyallup Chooses Puyallup Roof Pros
- ✓We schedule every flue, vent and stack before quoting, so the price covers the parts of a Puyallup roof that actually leak rather than the square footage of shingle.
- ✓We will not fit a powered attic fan on a house with a naturally drafted gas appliance, and we explain the pressure problem in person rather than in a footnote.
- ✓Abandoned vents get cut below the deck and sheathed over during tear-off, when the work costs an hour, instead of being reflashed and left for a future repair bill.
- ✓Estimates name the flashing, the collar and the underlayment by product and by location, so a second quote can be compared line by line instead of by bottom line.
The standards behind chimney flashing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The chimney flashing work we do in Puyallup follows published industry standards: NRCA publishes the Roofing Manual, the industry's reference for details and slope minimums, and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association sets the shingle application and ventilation guidance the warranties reference. If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
Every chimney flashing project in Puyallup gets the same attention, whether it is a single room or a full commercial job. We show up on schedule, keep the site clean, and stand behind the work — the estimate is free and there is no pressure.
