Accent Roofing & Remodeling | Roofing Services in Minneapolis, MN 55443

Minnesota's extreme weather is the main culprit. Our frequent freeze-thaw cycles cause the materials under and around flashing to expand and contract constantly, which can loosen nails and break seals. Combined with high winds from our storms, this often leads to the flashing lifting or separating from the roof surface, creating direct paths for water intrusion.

We start with a detailed inspection to assess the full extent of the damage. Our repair process involves carefully removing the compromised flashing, preparing the underlying surface, and installing new, high-quality flashing with proper sealing and secure fastening. We use techniques and materials specifically chosen to withstand our local climate, ensuring a durable, watertight seal that prevents future separation.

Absolutely. Prevention is key. During a new roof installation, we pay meticulous attention to flashing details. We use premium, corrosion-resistant metals and install them with extra care around all critical areas like chimneys, vents, and valleys. Our expert installation techniques are designed to accommodate the natural movement of your home, significantly reducing the risk of future lift or separation common in our area.
