Counter Flashing in Kissimmee

Metal roofing and fabrication in Kissimmee, Florida, must contend with intense humidity and heat, common to Central Florida. While not directly on the coast, the region experiences significant hurricane exposure and can still be affected by salt air carried inland. The existing building stock varies, with many structures built in recent decades that may require specific considerations for integration with metal.

What to keep in mind locally

  • Ensure proper ventilation to manage high humidity and prevent condensation buildup under metal roofing.
  • Select corrosion-resistant coatings and fasteners suitable for Florida’s climate, even inland.
  • Consider the potential for high winds during hurricane season and ensure secure installation methods.
  • Evaluate the existing roof structure for compatibility with the weight and fastening requirements of metal.

What the work involves

This service involves the precise fabrication and installation of metal flashing that overlaps the primary flashing and extends into the adjacent vertical surface, such as a wall or chimney. It creates a secondary barrier to direct water away from vulnerable joints.

When this comes up

  • During new roof construction to properly seal penetrations.
  • When replacing existing flashing that has deteriorated or failed.
  • To address leaks or water damage originating from roof penetrations.
  • When modifying existing roof penetrations or adding new ones.
