It's Misunderstood!  Roofing flashing is beneath the beauty of the shingles, but this attribute is most important in keeping your interior dry and leak free!

Roof Flashing

Flashing is most important at locations where a wall intersects with a roof.

​

Dormer's, Chimney's, Sky Lights, or any pipe penetrations,  Flashing protects the corners and any openings from water getting in.

​

Flashing can be metal, can come as a boot wrapping around the pipe, or be acrylic/Silicone based.    

Kick Out flashing just sounds cool!  But it has a special use of diverting rain water from the corners of the house, away,  into the gutters

​

These are a small detail that cannot be overlooked.  In some cases water can settle in a particular location and never drain properly.  Kick out flashing will ensure the longevity of your roof!

Copper Flashing

Copper is one of the best metal materials to use for exterior flashing because it is durable and malleable.

 

Using copper in any roofing project will ensure that no weak points exist in the roofing structure.

 

As opposed to some other flashing materials, copper will not destruct if exposed for long periods to sunlight.
