Roof Flashing

Flashing is an important part of a residential roofing system. Flashing is when pieces of impermeable metal that are thin are installed into the joints of the roof to prevent the water from seeping into the ceiling and the attic. Improper roof flashing can cause serious problems for the people living in the house.
