Process
- Locate problem areas:Carefully inspect the roof, focusing on chimneys, skylights, roof valleys, and where different roof sections meet, as these are common areas for flashing damage.
- Identify damage:Look for cracks, holes, corrosion, or loose sections in the existing flashing.
- Safety first:Use a sturdy ladder and appropriate safety gear, including gloves and non-slip footwear.
- Remove damaged flashing:If flashing is severely damaged, gently pry up surrounding shingles and use a pry bar to remove the old flashing and any attached materials.
- Clean the surface:Remove all debris, dirt, and old roofing cement from the area to ensure proper adhesion for the new flashing.
- Cut to size:Measure and cut new metal flashing to the correct dimensions to fit the specific area.
- Secure the flashing:Position the new flashing so it lies flat and overlaps correctly, then fasten it securely with roofing nails or screws.
- Seal the edges:Apply a generous amount of roofing cement or sealant along the edges of the new flashing and over the fastener heads to create a watertight barrier.
- Reinstall shingles: If shingles were removed, carefully reinstall them over the new flashing.
- Water test: Use a garden hose to simulate rain and conduct a water test to check for any leaks, ensuring the repair is effective and watertight.
