St. James Roof Flashing Repair | Busa & Company Roofing Specialist

In St. James, our proximity to the water means homes are frequently exposed to salty, humid air. This moisture accelerates the corrosion of metal flashing, especially older aluminum or steel. Over time, this corrosion weakens the material and the sealant, leading to separation from the roof deck or chimney. Regular inspections can catch this early before it leads to interior leaks.

We start with a detailed inspection to assess the full extent of the damage. For corrosion, we typically recommend removing the compromised flashing entirely. We then fabricate and install new, high-quality flashing—often using superior metals like copper or coated galvanized steel for better corrosion resistance. We meticulously seal and integrate the new flashing with your existing shingles to restore a watertight barrier.

In many cases, only the flashing needs to be addressed. Flashing is a common failure point, especially in our area. Our goal is to provide a targeted, cost-effective repair that preserves the rest of your sound roof. We'll give you an honest assessment; if the surrounding shingles are in good condition, a precise flashing repair is often the best solution to extend your roof's life.
