Stucco chimney in
Arlington, Virginia
Here's how we did it:
Stucco is cut off with a diamond blade to put on new flashing.
Note how the roof is covered with tar paper.
Flagstone is put on the chimney shoulders using tapcons and mortar.
Note how the stucco is cut off for the flashing.
Flashing covers the bolts. A plaster stop covers the flashing.
New flashing is put on all around the roof line.
Chimney is chipped, loose areas are knocked off and prepared for a bonding coat.
Flagstone shoulders and everything are covered with tape and plastic.
The band at the top is formed with lumber and filled with mortar.
No cheap foam here !
Solid cement band awaits the finish coat.
Top is rounded for good water run off.
Finish coat is white portland cement, white lime, and white sand.
