Expert Roof Flashing Repairs in Rochester & Across Kent

Catching flashing problems early saves you money and stress. Keep an eye out for these tell-tale signs around your Rochester home:

• Damp patches or staining: Visible water marks on your ceilings or walls, especially near chimneys, vents, or external walls.
• Missing or damaged material: Can you see parts of the metal flashing that are lifted, cracked, or corroded? Is there any visible rust?
• Cracked or crumbling mortar: Around chimney stacks, the mortar securing the flashing can deteriorate, creating gaps for water entry.
• Visible gaps: Look for any gaps or separation where the flashing meets the roof or a vertical surface.
• Loose shingles or tiles: Sometimes, failing flashing can cause the roofing materials around it to become loose.
  If you spot any of these, it's time to get a professional assessment.

When you call Kevington Roofing and Building LTD for flashing repairs in Rochester, you're choosing a team that prides itself on quality and transparency. Our process begins with a detailed inspection of the affected area, often utilising drone technology for hard-to-reach spots, to accurately pinpoint the source of the leak and assess the flashing's condition.
