Wall Flashing in Orlando

Metal roofing and fabrication in Orlando, Florida, contends with significant humidity and intense heat year-round. While not directly on the coast, the region still experiences the effects of a subtropical climate, including heavy rainfall and the potential for hurricane-force winds. The existing building stock varies, with many structures built to withstand these environmental factors.

What to keep in mind locally

Building owners should consider the impact of high humidity on material longevity and potential for corrosion, especially for non-stainless steel fasteners.
Hurricane preparedness is crucial; metal roofing offers excellent wind resistance when properly installed and fastened.
The intense sun and heat can affect material expansion and contraction, requiring appropriate detailing and installation techniques.
Regular inspections are recommended to ensure the integrity of the roofing system against common weather challenges.

What the work involves

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.

When this comes up

During new roof construction to properly seal wall-to-roof intersections.
When replacing an existing roof system.
If the current flashing is damaged, deteriorated, or improperly installed.
To address leaks or water stains appearing at the base of a wall where it meets the roof.
