Our coastal environment is the main culprit. The constant salt spray and high humidity accelerate corrosion of standard metal flashing. Combined with the strong winds from storms and nor'easters, compromised flashing is often the first point of failure, leading to leaks around chimneys, vents, and roof valleys.

We combat the salt air by using premium, corrosion-resistant metals like aluminum or specially coated steels for flashing installations. Our technique focuses on creating watertight seals with high-grade underlayment and sealants, and we ensure proper overlap and fastening to withstand high winds, addressing the two major local causes of failure.

Not always. We start with a thorough inspection to assess the extent of the damage. Often, localized flashing repair or replacement is a complete solution if the surrounding shingles are sound. We always provide an honest, upfront assessment—if the roof is nearing the end of its life, we'll explain your options, but we never recommend unnecessary work.
