Flashing: The Key to Preventing Leaks

Understanding the Role of Flashing

Flashing is a critical yet often overlooked component of roofing systems. At Kore Roofing, we believe that proper flashing installation is essential for preventing leaks and ensuring your roof’s longevity. Flashing directs water away from vulnerable areas, protecting your home from potential water damage.

What is Flashing?

Flashing is a material—usually metal—that is installed at joints, valleys, and around features such as chimneys, vents, and skylights. Its primary function is to create a watertight seal, preventing moisture from seeping into your home. There are several types of flashing, including step flashing, continuous flashing, and counter flashing, each serving different purposes.

Why Quality Installation Matters

Improperly installed flashing can lead to serious leaks and water damage, making it essential to ensure that it is installed correctly. At Kore Roofing, our skilled professionals ensure that all flashing is installed according to industry standards and local building codes. We pay close attention to detail to make sure every seam is properly sealed.

Additionally, we recommend regular inspections of your flashing, especially after severe weather events. Signs of wear or damage should be addressed promptly to prevent costly repairs down the line.

Conclusion

Don’t let leaks compromise your home! If you want to ensure your roof has the best protection against water intrusion, contact Kore Roofing for a thorough inspection of your flashing. Our team is dedicated to providing you with peace of mind and a watertight roof.
