 Cut 2/3" Gap ~ A masonry saw blade is
different than a wood blade. A wood blade when used on brick tends to chip
the brick while a masonry blade sands the brick leaving it mostly intact. |

Wear a Mask
~ There is usually very large amounts of dust when cutting into a brick
chimney because the masonry blade is grinding like sand paper.

 Snug
Fit ~ Counter Flashing has a special
lip which pushes into the brick. |

Welded ~ Most chimneys have a wooden cricket built which
separates the water as it flows down the roof. The best way to insure no
leaks is to have a custom made cricket sized perfectly for your chimney. |
|
 Exact
Measurements ~ When measuring a chimney
include the slope of the roof and the width of the chimney. |
