The heavy snowfall accumulated on our new roof, then began gradually sliding down the slope. All around the house it simply fell off the roof with a huge crash, but here in front it was held back by the chimney. The glacial action pushed a lump of snow up under the chimney flashing and began leaking down the chimney and out into the basement.
Our roof warranty provided a roofing expert to come out and analyze the situation. From now on we are required to break away accumulated snow at that chimney location so it cannot build up like this.
