Anchorage Roof Pros provides professional chimney & wall flashing in Anchorage, AK for residential and commercial properties across Southcentral Alaska. The upslope side of a chimney is a snow trap, and in this city it is the single most reliable place to find a leak. Anything standing proud of the roof plane catches drift on its uphill face and holds it long after the rest of the slope has cleared.
That is why a cricket is not optional here at any chimney width. Elsewhere the rule of thumb lets a narrow chimney go without one and nobody suffers for it. On a roof carrying 85 or 100 pounds per square foot of design snow, a flat uphill face against masonry banks a wedge of pack that sits wet against that joint for months at a stretch.
We build crickets on site, framed and sheathed rather than folded up out of bent metal, and sized to the chimney width and the slope so that snow is genuinely split and moved around rather than merely stopped a foot higher up. On wide chimneys at elevation that means a real saddle with its own pair of valleys, not a token bump in the shingles.
Flashing goes in as two separate systems the way it always should. Step flashing woven into each shingle course and fastened to the deck, then counterflashing set into a saw-kerf groove ground straight into the brick, so masonry movement and roof movement are never forced to fight one another through one folded piece of metal that always loses. Soldered corners on the counterflashing outlast sealed ones by many years in a climate that cycles this hard.
Wall terminations get exactly the same discipline. Kick-out flashing goes on at every point where a roof edge dies into a wall, because without one the runoff from an entire plane is being aimed straight into the wall cavity, and that damage surfaces as a rotten sill plate years before anybody thinks to suspect the roof above it.
Self-adhered membrane runs behind all of it, up the wall and around the chimney base to well above the height the drift actually reaches on that elevation. Sealant is the last line of defence in this assembly and never the first, and we will not quote a chimney repair whose success depends on a bead of caulk holding. Where a chase cover has rusted through, we replace it in stainless rather than patching galvanised steel.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — architectural laminate shingles at roughly three pounds per square foot, 24-gauge standing seam panels carried on concealed clips, high-temperature self-adhered underlayment run past the eave bearing line, ring-shank sheathing nails at reduced spacing on high-load planes, site-built crickets framed and sheathed to the drift surcharge, vented over-roof assemblies on a raised nailbase — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Anchorage and nearby communities including Knik-Fairview, Meadow Lakes, Wasilla, Tanaina.

Materials, equipment and how we do chimney & wall flashing
The difference between chimney & wall flashing that lasts and chimney & 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 architectural laminate shingles at roughly three pounds per square foot, 24-gauge standing seam panels carried on concealed clips, high-temperature self-adhered underlayment run past the eave bearing line, ring-shank sheathing nails at reduced spacing on high-load planes, 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 Anchorage 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 Southcentral Alaska means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

- ✓We say when the lighter, cheaper shingle is the correct answer at your elevation, and we say it before you have paid for anything.
- ✓We do not sell tile conversions in Southcentral Alaska, and we will show you on your own roof exactly why not.
