Happy 14th Birthday Rocky! Except for some arthritis in your hips you’re a pretty healthy guy. You still enjoy your daily walks and your people being home more, your favorite spot on the couch and of course barking at walkers going past, the TV and unseen things in the back yard! We love you sweet boy!
Naturally, once you upgrade your roof, you may want to work on other home improvements. Before you begin landscaping, check out these native plants that will stay pretty all winter long (and follow the Elizabeth River Project for more sustainable outdoor tips). 🪴🌞

The Stublen family has hung the 2020 “stockings” by the chimney with care in hopes that we will be able to protect you, your home, and the people who matter to you most for many holidays to come ☺️

One of the last details we wanted to highlight on this roof was the unique Chimney/Dormer Cricket.
.
Redirecting water from one area of the roof to another can be a challenge. To help divert water from areas where pooling may occur, such as the high side of chimneys (and certain roof transitions), we install crickets as part of the chimney flashing system.
[➡️for more examples]
.
These peaked structures help keep water flowing away from dead-ends and down the slope of the roof.

Pipe Collars, as seen in our last post, are a vital component that ensures there is a water tight seal around plumbing pipes 🚽🛀, electrical power line masts 💥⚡️, and chimney stack roof penetrations.
#themoreyouknow ✨🌈
[Transcript - Pipe Collar: A form of roof flashing installed around a pipe penetration. These flashing fit snuggly around the pipe and extend under the surrounding roof shingles. Common types of collars include neoprene, lead, copper and silicone. ]
Another detail we wanted to highlight on this house is the almond colored custom fabricated counter flashing installed to the dormer walls. We think turned out really sharp!
.
Also seen in this photo is the upgraded "Ultimate Pipe Flashing" manufactured by Lifetime Tool & Building Products. This Galvanized-Kynar® Coated Collar and has a silicone compression sleeve that will not dry rot over time from exposure to the sun and elements like traditional neoprene sleeves will.
