Wall flashing is a protective metal barrier installed where a vertical wall meets a sloped roof to prevent water intrusion. This page covers wall flashing for buildings in Lakeland, Florida.
Lakeland, Florida, experiences significant challenges for metal roofing and fabrication due to its proximity to the coast, exposing structures to salt air and high humidity. The region is also prone to hurricane-force winds, requiring robust materials and installation methods. The inland location offers some buffer from direct coastal salt spray compared to cities directly on the Atlantic or Gulf, but the intense Florida heat and pervasive humidity remain constant factors affecting metal performance and longevity, alongside the varied age and construction types of existing buildings.
This process involves cutting and shaping sheet metal to create a custom-fit flashing system. The metal is then securely attached to both the wall and the roof, overlapping in a way that directs water away from the vulnerable joint.
