What is Roof Flashing?
Roof flashing is a thin sheet of metal, usually made from aluminum, copper, or steel, that is installed at the roof's vulnerable points, such as valleys, chimneys, skylights, and vents. The purpose of roof flashing is to direct water away from these areas, preventing water infiltration and damage to your home.
Why is Roof Flashing Repair Important?
Prevents Water Damage
Damaged flashing or worn out flashing can lead to water leaks in your home. This can create significant damage to the interior of the property, including the walls, ceiling, and insulation. Which then can result in dangerous hazards like mold and mildew. Timely repairs and inspection can help prevent these issues.
Maintains Structural Integrity
Water can be downright damaging to a property and run the structural strength of your roof and walls, leading to expensive repairs or even a full roof replacement. Regular roof flashing inspection can help prevent larger issues from arising.
Increases Energy Efficiency
When flashing is properly installed, will help maintain your homes' energy efficiency by keeping water moisure out. This will keep your insulation in place and make sure your heating and cooling systems are working efficiently.
Signs Your Roof Flashing Needs Repair
Water Stains or Leaks
If you start to notice water stains or leaks in your home, even more so near the roof's vulnerable points, most likely your flashing is damaged and needs to be fixed.
Corrosion or Rust
Corrosion and rust can easily start to happen on a roof's flashing, inspect the flashing for corrosion and call a professional team of roofers.
Damaged or Missing Flashing
High winds can lead to damaged or missing flashing. Usually improper installation is the cause for this as the flashing should be able to withstand high winds and other weather elements.
