Your roof’s flashing may be small, but it plays one of the biggest roles in keeping your home watertight. Flashing is the thin layer of metal (usually aluminum or steel) that seals the joints and edges of your roof — around chimneys, vents, skylights, and valleys.
When flashing becomes damaged, corroded, or loose, water can sneak into your home and cause costly leaks, mold, and structural damage.
At All State Roofing & Chimney, we provide professional roof flashing repair in New Jersey, ensuring your roof stays sealed, strong, and ready for any weather.
1. What Is Roof Flashing and Why Is It Important?
Roof flashing acts as a waterproof barrier where shingles meet other surfaces — like walls, chimneys, and skylights. It directs rainwater away from vulnerable areas, preventing leaks and wood rot.
Without it, even a small rainstorm could lead to hidden water damage that spreads throughout your attic or ceiling.
2. Common Causes of Flashing Damage
Flashing issues can happen for many reasons:
-
Weather exposure — heavy rain, wind, and snow can loosen metal flashing.
-
Rust and corrosion — especially on older roofs.
-
Poor installation — improperly sealed or cut flashing leads to leaks.
-
Aging materials — sealant or caulking around flashing wears out over time.
No matter the cause, our team can identify and fix the problem fast to prevent further water intrusion.
3. Signs You Need Roof Flashing Repair
Watch for these warning signs that your roof flashing may need attention:
-
Water stains on ceilings or walls
-
Damp attic insulation
-
Visible rust or cracks near the chimney or skylights
-
Missing or bent flashing pieces
-
Persistent roof leaks even after shingle repairs
If you notice any of these, schedule an inspection with All State Roofing & Chimney immediately.
