Valley Flashing in Tallahassee

Metal roofing and fabrication in Tallahassee, Florida, contends with a subtropical climate characterized by high humidity, intense heat, and significant hurricane exposure. The proximity to the coast means salt air can accelerate corrosion on certain metals, while inland areas experience less salt but still face the challenges of heavy rainfall and strong winds. The diverse building stock, ranging from older structures to newer constructions, requires careful assessment for proper integration and performance of metal systems.

What to keep in mind locally

  • Building owners should select metal materials and finishes resistant to corrosion from salt air and UV exposure.
  • Proper installation techniques are crucial to withstand high winds and heavy rainfall associated with Florida storms.
  • Ventilation and insulation are important to manage heat gain and humidity, ensuring indoor comfort and preventing moisture issues.
  • Regular inspections can help identify any early signs of wear or potential issues, especially after severe weather events.

What the work involves

This service involves fabricating and installing custom-fit metal channels, known as valleys, along the internal angles where two roof slopes meet. These channels are designed to capture and channel rainwater and snowmelt efficiently down to the roof’s drainage system.

When this comes up

  • When a new roof is being installed or replaced.
  • When existing valley flashing shows signs of wear, corrosion, or damage.
  • When leaks are detected originating from the roof valleys.
  • As part of a comprehensive roof maintenance program to ensure water-tightness.
