Cedar roof flashing repair involves correcting damaged, loose, rusted, or improperly sealed flashing components that protect vulnerable roof intersections and penetrations.
Flashing is installed around chimneys, skylights, vents, valleys, and wall transitions to direct water away from seams and prevent moisture infiltration beneath the cedar roofing surface.
Over time, flashing may deteriorate due to corrosion, movement, weather exposure, or improper installation. When flashing fails, water can enter the roof structure even if the cedar shakes themselves remain in good condition.
Repair work may include resealing joints, replacing corroded metal sections, correcting overlaps, or integrating new flashing with existing cedar materials.
Timely flashing repair is essential because flashing failures are one of the most common causes of cedar roof leaks and structural moisture damage.
