Why Central Florida's Climate Destroys Standard Flashing
- Thermal Cycling and Rust: Flashing leaks are often a slow-motion failure driven by the constant thermal cycling endemic to Florida. The repeated expansion and contraction of the roof and the metal flashing slowly stress the seals and fasteners. Furthermore, standard galvanized metal flashing can rust prematurely in the high humidity and salt-air zones, leading to pinhole leaks that are almost impossible to detect until damage is widespread. Accurate flashing repair demands a specialist approach.
- Installation Flaws: The vast majority of flashing repair needs stem from improper installation—either poorly cut metal that isn’t fully integrated (step flashing) or reliance on excessive sealant instead of mechanical sealing. We see this frequently around chimneys and where different roof planes meet. GRIT Roofing’s specialized technicians ensure that all metalwork is custom-fitted and layered correctly beneath the shingles for complete waterproofing.

Specialized Repair for Every Flashing Type
1. Expert Chimney Flashing Repair
- Complexity and Solution: The chimney area is the most complex section of your roof, requiring four distinct types of flashing (apron, step, counter, and cricket) to work in perfect harmony. We specialize in diagnosing leaks caused by rusted chimney flashing, missing step flashing, or mortar joint failure. We often recommend upgrading to copper or aluminum flashing that offers superior resistance to the Central Florida climate and carry a longer lifespan.
2. Wall and Valley Flashing Solutions
- Wall and Valley: Leaks where a roof meets a vertical wall (wall flashing) or where two roof planes meet (valley flashing) are notorious for large-volume water intrusion. We address these critical areas by ensuring the valley flashing is the correct gauge and properly installed without exposed nails, and that the wall flashing is correctly integrated into the siding or brickwork (counter-flashed) to ensure water drains away harmlessly.
If you have water intrusion near a structural connection, your flashing is compromised. Do not trust this complex repair to a general contractor. Contact GRIT Roofing for a guaranteed, permanent flashing repair solution in Central Florida.
