LK Roof & Gutters | Roofing Services in Spokane, WA 99203

In Spokane, the primary culprit is our dramatic temperature swings and heavy winter snow. The freeze-thaw cycle causes the metal flashing and surrounding roofing materials to expand and contract, which can break the watertight seal over time. This, combined with our wind-driven rain, allows moisture to penetrate behind the flashing and into your home. Our team inspects for these stress points and expertly repairs or replaces the flashing to restore a durable seal.

Visible signs include rust stains running down your roof or siding from the flashing areas, a chalky white residue (oxidation) on metal surfaces, or pieces of the flashing that appear flaky or brittle. From inside your attic, look for water stains or daylight around chimneys, vents, or skylights. Given Spokane's weather, we recommend a professional inspection, especially before winter, as even minor corrosion can quickly lead to a leak once compromised by ice and snow.

Clogged or damaged gutters are a major contributor to flashing and roof problems here. When gutters overflow due to our fall leaves or ice dams in winter, water can back up under the roof shingles and directly against the flashing. This constant moisture exposure accelerates corrosion and undermines the sealant. Our comprehensive service includes ensuring your gutter system is properly installed, cleared, and flowing away from your home to protect your roof's critical flashing points.
