Flashing & Membrane Repair Services
Expert repair and replacement of flashing and waterproofing membranes to protect your building envelope from water intrusion.
Critical Building Envelope Components
Flashing and waterproofing membranes are critical components of the building envelope that direct water away from vulnerable areas and prevent moisture intrusion. When these systems fail, they can cause significant water damage to the building structure and interior spaces.
Our flashing and membrane repair services address both immediate leak issues and underlying system failures. We use high-quality materials and proven installation techniques to restore the water-tight integrity of your building envelope and prevent future water intrusion problems.
Types of Flashing & Membrane Repairs
We provide comprehensive repair services for all types of flashing and membrane systems.
Flashing Repairs
Repair and replacement of metal flashing systems that direct water away from critical building envelope transitions.
- Window and door head flashing
- Roof-to-wall transition flashing
- Step flashing and counterflashing
- Penetration flashing (pipes, vents, etc.)
- Parapet and coping flashing
Membrane Repairs
Repair and replacement of waterproofing membranes that provide the primary water barrier for horizontal surfaces.
- Balcony and deck membranes
- Roof membrane systems
- Below-grade waterproofing
- Plaza deck membranes
- Membrane transitions and terminations
Common Problem Areas
These areas are most susceptible to flashing and membrane failures.
Window Headers
Failed head flashing allows water to enter above windows, causing interior damage and structural issues.
Roof Transitions
Roof-to-wall transitions are vulnerable points where flashing failures can cause significant water intrusion.
Balcony Decks
Membrane failures on balconies can cause water to penetrate into living spaces below.
Parapets
Parapet flashing and coping systems are exposed to severe weather and prone to failure.
Penetrations
Flashing around pipes, vents, and other penetrations requires careful detailing to prevent leaks.
Expansion Joints
Movement joints require specialized flashing systems that can accommodate building movement.
