Kingman Roof Pros provides professional chimney and wall flashing in Kingman, AZ for residential and commercial properties across the Hualapai Valley. If we had to name the single joint that fails most often on Kingman roofs, it would be the one where a masonry chimney meets the roof plane. Masonry, mortar, sheet metal and the roof covering all move at different rates, and here they do it twice a day.
The detail that survives is not complicated, it is simply rarely executed properly. Step flashing laced course by course up both sides, a headwall apron across the back or a framed cricket where the chimney is wide, base flashing at the front, and a counterflashing cut into a reglet in the masonry joint and sealed there. A reglet is a saw cut into the mortar joint and it takes about an hour.
Smearing sealant across the face of the brick instead is where nearly every failure we open up has gone wrong. Surface-applied sealant against masonry is being asked to bond two materials with very different expansion coefficients through a twenty-five degree daily swing and forty-four freeze crossings a year. It lets go, usually somewhere out of sight, and usually years before anybody notices the ceiling.
Water then runs behind the flashing and into the chimney's own structure, where it freezes inside the mortar joints and begins pushing the bricks apart from the inside out. A wide chimney on a sloped roof also needs a cricket. Thirty inches measured across the slope is where the code puts that requirement, and plenty of chimneys in this town are wider than that. Without one, the uphill face of the chimney is a dam.
Snow is not the issue at this elevation and we will not pretend otherwise. Blown grit and monsoon runoff are, and both pile up against a flat back wall and hold water there long enough for it to freeze that same night. A cricket sheds both, and it costs a fraction of rebuilding masonry that has been split from within. The cricket is the cheap half of that particular repair.
While the crew is up there we assess the crown and the cap as well. A split crown admits water at the very top of the brickwork, and an absent cap drops it directly into the flue. Neither is roofing work in the strict sense and both will comfortably ruin roofing work. Where the masonry has already spalled, we will say you need a mason first, and wait.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — clay tile graded to ASTM C1167 Grade 1, mechanically fastened raised ridge battens, high-temperature membrane at eaves and valleys, tapered polyiso saddles behind curbs, floating clip standing seam runs, counterflashing set into a masonry reglet — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Kingman and nearby communities including New Kingman-Butler, Golden Valley, Valle Vista, Dolan Springs.

Materials, equipment and how we do chimney and wall flashing
The difference between chimney and wall flashing that lasts and chimney and wall flashing that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with clay tile graded to ASTM C1167 Grade 1, mechanically fastened raised ridge battens, high-temperature membrane at eaves and valleys, tapered polyiso saddles behind curbs, 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 Kingman 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 Hualapai Valley means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Kingman Chooses Kingman Roof Pros
- ✓We specify from the local freeze record rather than from a state-wide default, which is why tile grade and ridge fastening on our jobs differ from a Phoenix quote.
- ✓Inspections are scheduled for late February so you are seeing what the winter actually did, instead of guessing in autumn or arguing after a monsoon.
- ✓Every estimate names the product, the grade and the fastening pattern. If a competitor's quote says only shingles and a color, you are comparing two different roofs.
- ✓Drainage correction gets quoted before membrane on every low-slope roof, because a pond that freezes overnight works a seam that no sheet was designed to resist.
The standards behind chimney and wall flashing
Quality here is not a matter of opinion — it is written down.

If a contractor cannot tell you which standard a detail comes from, that is worth asking about before you sign.
