What are Galvanised Flashings?
Sometimes referred to as metal roofing flashings, roof flashings, or edge trims, galvanised steel flashings are typically used to finish the ends and corners of roofing sheets to protect a building against water ingress. Galvanised flashings are specially designed metal strips that seal roof edges, corners, joints, and other vulnerable areas of a building. By sealing building ends and diverting water away from these critical points, metal flashings help prevent leaks, dampness, and weather-related damage. Made from galvanised steel, these flashings are coated with a layer of zinc that protects the metal beneath from rust and corrosion. This protective layer ensures long-lasting durability, even in harsh weather conditions. Galvanised flashings are commonly used in roofing, cladding, and drainage systems, providing essential reinforcement to maintain the integrity of a structure. Whether for new builds or renovation projects, galvanised flashings are vital for maintaining the integrity of both residential and commercial properties.Key Qualities of Galvanised Flashings
