What Are Flashing and Capping?
Flashing: Thin, durable metal or waterproof material used to seal roof joints, valleys, chimneys, skylights, and other vulnerable areas. Flashing prevents water from seeping into the roof structure.
Capping: Protective coverings placed over ridges and edges of a roof to shield them from weather exposure while enhancing the roof’s overall stability and appearance.
Both components play a critical role in maintaining a watertight roofing system.
Common Issues with Flashing and Capping
Corrosion: Metal flashing can rust over time, compromising its ability to prevent leaks.
Cracks and Gaps: Poor installation or ageing can lead to cracks or separation in flashing and capping.
Dislodgement: High winds or storms can loosen these components, exposing your roof to water damage.
Wear and Tear: Continuous exposure to the elements can degrade materials, especially in older roofs.
