Flashing question
We are in the process of building a new home and our General Contractor
has run away with our money. We are trying to move the construction forward ourselves and have run into a snag. In addition to being a thief, he was apparently incompetent. He built a chimney for the fireplace and per code, made it 4 ft. higher than the house but forgot to flash. I am hiring a new roofer and a mason and they are telling me that the chimney above the roof line needs to be cut and then re-built in order to be properly flashed. Is that true? Can anything else be done? THe CHimney runs along the back of the house and meets the house in the middle of a reverse gable. Any suggestions would be appreciated. |
