Roll Flashing to Guard Against the Elements
Flashing is a thin layer of material that is used to prevent water from leaking through exterior roofing, walls, decks and similar structures. It provides a professional finish to your home and is essential to avoid the rot that accumulated water can cause in wood construction. At Lowe's we offer roll flashing in an array of waterproof materials, including aluminum, PVC and galvanized steel.
An aluminum flashing roll is easy to bend, cut and form to fit anywhere you need to weatherproof. It's ideal for places where roof shingles meet a side wall. It's rust-resistant, and some types have a self-adhesive layer for quick and easy application.
Roll flashing is also useful when weatherproofing windows. Cut and lay the flashing around the edging to direct water away from the window and structural components.
