Problems with the roof flashing are one of the most common reasons for water damage on the roof. Flashing fills the gaps where sections of the roof come together around penetrations in the roof, such as vents or chimneys. Flashing can wear out over time or become dislodged by high winds or heavy precipitation. If there’s a problem with your flashing and you’ve been putting off fixing it, now is the time. With Kozy Kollar products, fixing your roof is easier than ever.
Do you need to replace your roof flashing? Here are three reasons not to delay it any longer.
Prepare for the Weather
We’re a New England-based company, so we’ve experienced the worst of winter weather. Dealing with a leak is challenging enough in the summer, but it’s much worse when ice and snow are in the mix. After winter comes a wet spring, so you won’t get a break from precipitation for a while. It’s best to replace your flashing now rather than wait for extreme weather to arrive.
Protect Your Home and Family
There is an undeniable connection between damage or defects in the roof flashing and problems related to water damage. Old, damaged, or improperly installed roof flashing can cause structural damage to the framing, roof sags, insulation damage, mold, hazards related to electrical work, and stains. These problems can all cause severe damage to your home and even result in an unhealthy environment for your family.
Install Safely with Kozy Kollar
We know one of the most significant concerns for homeowners who need to repair the flashing around their vents or pipes is the risk of getting on the roof. With so many roof falls reported every year, we don’t blame you and your hesitation. For that reason alone, we invented the Kozy Kollar. Ours are the only products that you can install from inside your attic, which eliminates the chance of injury. Our simple instructions will have a new, secure flange attached to your roof in only a few minutes, and your home will be safe from further damage.
