Flashing Repair in Karrinyup

Flashing failures are one of the most common leak sources we see across Karrinyup, especially around chimneys, vents, and the junction points where extensions meet original rooflines. Many homes built in the late 1950s-1960s have never had their original flashings replaced in 60-70 years, and the metal has corroded badly from our moderate salt air. A failed flashing is a small problem that becomes a major one fast once water starts tracking into the roof cavity. We replace corroded flashings with proper coastal-grade materials that hold up in this climate. Most jobs involve valley iron replacement as well because the same salt exposure that ruined the flashing has typically corroded the underlying iron. Once we've stripped out the old material and repointed around the new flashing, the leak stops and stays stopped. Flashing repair usually runs 400 to 850 dollars depending on what's failed and how much of the surrounding roof needs resealing.

Karrinyup's 60-70 year old valleys and flashings are commonly corroded right through from decades of salt air and water. Original late-1950s metals used simpler protective systems than today. When a roof leak appears around a chimney, vent, or skylight, it's usually the flashing that's failed. Replacement is straightforward and stops the water before it rots timber frames. Most Karrinyup homes need at least one flashing replaced during restoration.
