Tulsa Premium Roofing provides professional chimney flashing in Tulsa, OK for residential and commercial properties across Green Country. A chimney is the wettest thing on most old Tulsa roofs and the one detail where a shortcut is guaranteed to come back. It is also, in the eight overlay districts, a protected feature that you are not free to remove.
That last point catches people out. The common contractor solution to a persistently leaking chimney on an unused fireplace is to take it down below the roof line and deck over the hole. The city's guidelines list chimneys among the character-defining roof features that are not to be removed, so inside a preservation district that solution is off the table and the flashing has to be done properly instead. Plan on flashing it properly instead.
Doing it properly on this stock means respecting the masonry. Brick from the twenties is laid in soft lime mortar, and it does not take a fastener the way modern brick does. Counterflashing gets cut into a mortar joint with a grinder, set in, wedged with lead and sealed at the reglet. Surface-nailing a flashing to a brick face spalls the brick and turns a roofing repair into a masonry one.
Underneath it, step flashing goes in one piece per shingle course, woven as the courses go on. Continuous L-flashing behind a chimney is the single most reliable way to guarantee a leak, because there is no lap anywhere along it to shed the water that gets past the counterflashing. Continuous flashing is quick to install, which is exactly why it keeps turning up on old houses.
Past roughly thirty inches of width, the upslope side needs a cricket. Skip it and that face turns into a dam, holding water, leaves and ice against the brick, and no quantity of sealant repairs a drainage problem. We frame it, sheath it and flash it like the miniature roof it is. A cricket is carpentry, and it is priced as carpentry on our scope.
We check the crown and the cap while we are up there, and we will tell you when the leak is not ours to fix. Water entering through an open crown, a spalled cap or unsealed masonry above the flashing is a chimney problem, and putting new flashing under it would only sell you a repair that cannot work. Fixing the masonry first is cheaper than doing the roof twice.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — architectural laminate shingles encouraged by the city design guidelines, cedar shingle coverings original to Tulsa oil-boom bungalows, tar-and-gravel built-up roofing over masonry commercial blocks, exposed rafter tails and eave brackets carried through a tear-off, counterflashing reglets cut into soft lime mortar joints, clay tile matched by profile, texture and directional orientation — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Tulsa and nearby communities including Sand Springs, Owasso, Sapulpa, Claremore.

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 architectural laminate shingles encouraged by the city design guidelines, cedar shingle coverings original to Tulsa oil-boom bungalows, tar-and-gravel built-up roofing over masonry commercial blocks, exposed rafter tails and eave brackets carried through a tear-off, 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 Tulsa 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 Green Country means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.

Why Tulsa Chooses Tulsa Premium Roofing
- ✓We look up your zoning before we quote, so nobody discovers a review requirement halfway through a tear-off with the deck already open to weather.
- ✓We identify the original covering from physical evidence in the eave, the attic and the flashing, not from a guess made standing in the driveway.
- ✓We price the honest option first. Putting the same covering back is often cheaper, faster and free of review, and we will say so before we sell an upgrade.
- ✓Our eave carpentry is done by people who can repair a rafter tail and a bracket rather than wrap the whole assembly in aluminum and call it maintenance.
