Denver Premium Roofing provides professional chimney flashing in Denver, CO for residential and commercial properties across the Front Range urban corridor. Chimney flashing work is almost always out of pocket, and you should hear that from us on the first visit rather than from an adjuster three weeks later. Deteriorated sealant and tired step flashing are wear, which policies exclude by name, so this is a maintenance decision.
Denver's requirement behind a wide chimney is specific and frequently ignored. Any vertical projection on a sloped roof wider than thirty inches requires a cricket or saddle, built from sheet metal or from the same material as the covering. On the many Denver houses whose chimney sits mid-slope with a broad upslope face, an absent cricket is the whole problem. Owners are frequently surprised by this at the estimate stage.
Water and debris pile against masonry through every storm and every melt, and no amount of sealant downhill of that will fix it. Correct flashing is three separate components doing three separate jobs, and most failures come from collapsing them into one lump of caulk. Step flashing woven into each shingle course along the sides is the first, and it cannot be retrofitted from above.
A continuous apron at the downslope face turned up the masonry is the second. Counterflashing cut into a mortar reglet, folded and locked over the step legs so the masonry sheds onto the metal rather than behind it, is the third. Face-nailed metal stuck down under a smear of caulk is not counterflashing; it is a countdown to the same call next spring.
We work in metal rather than in tubes. Reglet cuts are ground into the mortar joint, counterflashing is set and sealed with a high-performance polyurethane joint sealant rather than roof cement, crickets are soldered or cleated rather than caulked, and heavy sheet is dressed to irregular masonry. Soldered seams outlast sealed ones by decades here, and they cost more up front. On a chimney you intend to keep, that difference is the whole point of doing it once.
While we are up there we check the parts blamed on flashing that are not flashing. A cracked crown, a missing chase cover, an open flue without a cap, and B-vent pipes lacking a metal base of the same gauge as the pipe with a fitted storm collar all produce water at a ceiling. If the masonry is spalling and the joints are open, get a mason in before us.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — actual cash value roof-surface payment schedules, recoverable depreciation released only on completed work, percentage wind and hail deductibles written against the dwelling limit, cosmetic damage exclusion endorsements on metal panels, 26-gauge sheet metal capping over plank-deck openings, ASTM D7158 Class H coverings for the 140 mph Denver wind zone — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Denver and nearby communities including Aurora, Arvada, Westminster, Centennial.

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 actual cash value roof-surface payment schedules, recoverable depreciation released only on completed work, percentage wind and hail deductibles written against the dwelling limit, cosmetic damage exclusion endorsements on metal panels, 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 Denver 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 the Front Range urban corridor means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Denver Chooses Denver Premium Roofing
- ✓We read the loss settlement section of your declarations page before we measure, because an actual cash value roof schedule changes the whole shape of the job.
- ✓Every proposal carries two numbers: what the policy is likely to settle, and what the roof costs. You see the gap before you decide whether to file.
- ✓We are not public adjusters and Colorado bars us from acting like one, so we scope and document while you or a licensed adjuster handle the negotiation.
- ✓Your wind rating is set by which side of Federal, Sheridan or Kipling you sit on, and we specify the covering to that zone rather than to a metro average.
The standards behind chimney flashing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down. The chimney flashing work we do in Denver 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 Denver 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.
