What is flashing?

Flashings direct water away from vulnerable areas of your roof such as vents and the intersections at roof valleys.

When flashings are compromised, it can lead to significant water damage and costly repairs. That’s why timely maintenance and replacement of flashings are important.

If your flashings have been damaged by extreme weather or have simply worn out over time, our team can assess and repair them to ensure they continue to protect your roof effectively.

We handle everything from securing loose flashings to replacing corroded sections, using only the highest quality materials for lasting performance.

What material is in flashings?

• Lead: Known for its durability and flexibility, lead is often used in older buildings but is less common in new constructions due to health concerns.
• Aluminium: Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, aluminium is a popular choice for flashings in residential roofing.
• Zincalume and Colorbond steel: These are highly durable and corrosion-resistant steel options that are popular in Australian constructions for their longevity and range of colour options.
• Copper: Although more expensive, copper is chosen for its long lifespan and the natural patina it develops over time, which can be aesthetically desirable.
