Roofing Contractors of Seattle | Roofing Services in Edmonds, WA 98020

Edmonds' coastal climate means constant exposure to salt air and moisture, which accelerates metal flashing corrosion. We fix this by first removing all corroded material, treating the underlying wood, and installing new, high-quality flashing—often using more corrosion-resistant metals like copper or specially coated galvanized steel—sealed with durable, waterproof compounds to provide a long-lasting barrier.

Recurring skylight leaks here are often due to failed seals or improper flashing installation that can't handle our wind-driven rain. The most effective solution is a comprehensive resealing and re-flashing job. We remove the old sealant, inspect and prepare the frame and surrounding roof, then install a new, integrated flashing system and high-performance sealants designed to flex with temperature changes and withstand heavy Pacific Northwest rain.

We recommend a professional roof inspection at least once a year, ideally in late spring or early fall. Given our wet winters and the specific stress on flashings and seals, an annual check allows us to catch early signs of corrosion, wear around skylights, or granule loss from asphalt shingles before they turn into leaks, saving you significant repair costs down the line.
