Roof flashings are vital weatherproofing components, preventing water from infiltrating your home or building through angles or joints. Flashing prevents water infiltration at vulnerable points on a roof where it meets a wall, chimney, or skylight. At Done Right Roofing, we offer a variety of high-quality metal flashings in Colorbond, matte, ultra, metallic, zincalume, galvanised, and aluminium steel in Brisbane. We go the extra mile by giving customers flexibility to create custom flashings and cappings tailored to their specific needs. No matter your requirements, we can deliver custom solutions that cater to the most common roof dimensions, angles, colours, and lengths. Our commitment to quality ensures that our custom-made roof flashings are robust enough to withstand the often harsh Australian weather conditions.
Roof flashing comes in various types, each designed for specific purposes. Some roof flashing types customers in Brisbane can opt for include:
Step Flashing: This is used at the junction of the roof and vertical walls or other vertical roof structures.
Counter Flashing: Installed over-step flashing to provide additional protection against water infiltration.
Valley Flashing: It is installed in roof valleys to channel water away from the joint where two roof slopes meet.
Chimney Flashing: Placed around the base of a chimney to seal the joint between the chimney and the roof.
Vent Pipe Flashing: Used around vent pipes or plumbing penetrations to prevent water entry.
Drip Edge Flashing: Installed along the roofs edges to help direct water into the gutters and away from the fascia.
Steps Involved in Roof Flashing Works by Done Right Roofing, Brisbane
Roof flashings are a critical component of roofing systems. Flashing prevents water infiltration at vulnerable points on a roof where it meets a wall, chimney, or skylight. Roof flashing installation work is dangerous. It must be performed only by professional contractors, like Done Right Roofing. Here are the steps we follow while installing roof flashings for customers in Brisbane.
Safety Precautions & Roof Inspection: We start by taking adequate safety measures for the safety of our personnel and property occupants. We equip our roofing experts with safety harnesses, non-slip footwear, and gloves for added protection. Your roof will be first inspected to identify areas where roof flashings are needed. The most common inspections are at roof intersections, valleys, chimneys, roof vents, skylights, and areas susceptible to water ingress.
Flashing Material Selection: We assist our customers in selecting the appropriate roof flashing material based on the roof type, regional climate, and roof specifications. Besides, other factors like cost, aesthetics, and compatibility are considered during the selection process.
Cutting & Shaping: The flashing material is cut and shaped to the required dimensions for each specific location on the roof. It includes forming pieces that fit around corners, ridges, or roof features.
Installation, Fastening, & Sealing: Flashing is installed at the identified locations to create a watertight seal. The installation method varies depending on the roof type. Common types of flashing include step flashing, counter flashing, or apron flashing. The flashings are fastened to the roof and adjacent structures using fasteners like screws or nails. Sealants, like roofing cement or silicone, help seal the flashing joints to create a waterproof barrier.
Overlapping: Flashing pieces are often installed with overlaps to ensure water does not seep through. Installation techniques, like counter-flashing over steps and flashing at chimneys and walls are needed to prevent water entry at these susceptible areas in a building.
Our personnel will conduct a final inspection to ensure that the roof flashings fit securely and that gaps are covered with sealants to avoid gaps where water can enter.
