I noticed the fascia/soffit immediately next to chimney wall is rot out.
Please see the picture here:
I have two questions hope you can help:
1) I am going to hire a guy from angie's list. who should I call to fix the wood rot: roof guy, gutter guy, chimney guy, or other?
2) should I redesign the chimney counter flashing: either direct the water toward downslope, or extended the flashing over so that water will not drip on the fascia/soffit? Thank you very much!
