Extend the Lifespan of Your Home With Our Flashing Services

What Is Flashing?

Flashing is the process of installing a waterproof barrier around structures in order to protect them from moisture and water damage. It  prevent water seeping into walls, ceilings and floors, which can cause structural problems.

Where Is Flashing Needed?

It can be installed to protect vulnerable areas such as doors, windows, stones, and rooftops from water damage and leaks by creating a watertight seal using thin strips of impervious material. Installing flashing can extend the life span of any structure.

It's can stand up to almost any weather condition without needing frequent repair or replacement. This means that once you install siding, you won't have to worry about spending time or money keeping it in good condition—it will simply last and last. 

Our Process

01

Before we install flashing, we make sure that the surface is properly prepared. This means checking for any cracks that need to be filled in prior & clearing all debris from the surface.

02

Next we determine how much material is needed, by measuring the length and width of each area that requires flashing. Once you’ve chose the right material, we measure and cut it.

03

Now we  begin by applying one end at a time with adhesive caulk on both sides of each strip of material. Making sure that each strip overlaps with the previous strip to ensure no gaps.

04

The final step in completing your flashing installation is adding finishing touches such as sealant tape along seams or other areas where water may potentially leak through.

FAQs

  • How Do I Know If I Need Flashing?

    If you notice any signs of water leaks or staining near vulnerable areas in your home’s exterior (doors, windows, stone foundations), then it’s likely that you need to install new flashing in those areas. 


    Additionally, if your home is more than 10 years old and has never had its original flashing replaced or inspected, then it’s probably time to have a professional take a look at it and determine if new flashing needs to be installed. 


  • How do I choose the right flashing for my home?

    There are several factors to consider when choosing flashing for your home such as width, length, material type and where it will be placed. 


    Make sure that you're choosing an appropriate material for each application since some materials are only suitable for use in temperature-controlled environments. 


    Additionally, consider using flashings with added features or coatings that provide greater efficiency at resisting water and pests. 


  • How long does flashing installation take?

    The amount of time it takes to install flashing depends on how much work needs to be done. 


    A small job like window or door flashing may take a few hours or less, while larger jobs like roofing or stone veneer may take several days or even weeks depending on the size of the project.
