Gutter Flashing


Gutter flashing is a waterproofing material that is installed just beneath the roof line inside the gutter.  This material is important because it stops water from seeping into your home.  Because flashing is bent at an angle, it diverts the water into the gutter and keeps the fascia dry.  Some contractors cut costs and are not installing gutter flashing on their projects.  Although their price may be less due to this shortcut, your home has an elevated risk of water intrusion if flashing was not installed.  Midwest Gutter & Siding uses gutter flashing on all of its projects whenever possible.  It is important to us that your home has the very best protection from water intrusion. Let us help with your exterior home projects. Call Dan at 763-550-1685 for a no obligation consultation or find us on the web at www.midwestguttermn.com.

  1. Gutter flashing is an important part of gutter and roof installation. It is installed on the top of the roof and slid under the shingles. It’s primary function is to keep the water away from sinking under the roof baseboard. Installing a gutter flashing is very critical because you have to make sure that it is properly laid under the shingles for the full protection of the roof and siding from the water.

  2. The gutter flashing is an important part of the roof and gutter installation that must not be forgotten It is what protects the entire house from rotting, which is one cause of rainwater sipping in. This shouldn’t be ignored nor removed, or else, you’ll be risking your home to get dampish. ->North West Exteriors
