Murrieta Roof Pros provides professional chimney & chase flashing in Murrieta, CA for residential and commercial properties across southwest Riverside County. Most Murrieta homes with a fireplace do not have a masonry chimney. They have a framed chase — plywood and stucco with a metal cover on top and a factory firebox inside — and that assembly has three built-in weak points behind nearly every chase leak we see.
The first is the cover. A flat 26-gauge galvanized lid with no crown, no cross-break and a rolled edge ending flush against the stucco holds a puddle, rusts through at its seams, and then drips inside the chase where nobody can see it until a wall stain appears downstairs. We replace those with a cross-broken cover in heavier gauge or stainless steel, with a real drip edge and correct collar clearance around the flue.
The second is the missing cricket. Where a chase sits below the ridge on a slope, the water arriving from above has to be split and sent around it. Production builders often skipped the cricket on chases under roughly thirty inches wide and relied on a flashing pan to hold back a season of pine needles and standing water. It does not hold, so we frame and metal a proper cricket while the courses are open.
The third is the counterflashing. Stucco lapped straight over an L-flashing, or a bead of sealant run against the wall, puts water inside the paper rather than on top of the roof. The correct repair is a saw-cut reglet with counterflashing let into it, or the stucco cut back and the flashing woven with the roof covering, plus a kickout diverter where the chase corner meets a wall and dumps into a gutter.
We rebuild those three details as a set, because fixing one and leaving the other two is exactly why chase leaks come back wearing a new contractor's name. Everything gets photographed while open, then water-tested with a hose before we close it up and hand the pictures over. A chase sealed three times by three contractors is a cricket problem, not a sealant problem.
If a reroof is coming, this is the moment to do it. Reflashing a chase during tear-off costs a fraction of the same work as a standalone repair off a ladder, and any reroof bid that says nothing at all about your chase is quietly planning to reuse whatever is already up there.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — synthetic underlayment, concrete S-tile and flat tile profiles, 24-gauge galvanized valley metal, step and kickout flashing, SBS-modified bitumen, architectural laminate shingles — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Murrieta and nearby communities including Temecula, Wildomar, French Valley, Winchester.

Materials, equipment and how we do chimney & chase flashing
The difference between chimney & chase flashing that lasts and chimney & chase flashing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with synthetic underlayment, concrete S-tile and flat tile profiles, 24-gauge galvanized valley metal, step and kickout flashing, 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 Murrieta 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 southwest Riverside County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
