Roof Repair, Seymour, CT. Cricket Installation

A chimney cricket is important because chimneys create a natural “dam” on the roof. Without a cricket, water, leaves, snow, and debris can pile up behind the chimney, increasing the risk of leaks, rot, damaged decking, and failed flashing. A properly installed cricket diverts water to both sides of the chimney, helping protect one of the most leak-prone areas of the roof.
