Metal Flashing
Metal Flashing Fabrication in Dallas TX
Metal roof flashing is typically made of galvanized steel to direct water away from critical areas of the roof. Flashing should always be installed around roof vents, chimneys, dormers, and skylights. Metal flashings guide water to the shingles and rain gutters off and away from the roof. They weatherproof or seal the roofing system. This takes place at all the edges, perimeters, penetrations, walls, and valleys. Flashing is also used in other places where the roof covering is interrupted or terminated.
Metal flashing is essential to every roof system. Custom-fabricated metal flashing is stronger and creates a watertight seal in comparison to pre-fabricated flashings. Custom metal flashing is more precise and will extend the life of a metal roofing system.
