Metal flashing is popular in buildings due to its ability to provide a durable, weatherproof barrier that prevents water infiltration. It is commonly used in areas prone to leaks, such as roof edges, chimneys, vents, windows, and doors. Here are several reasons why metal flashing is widely used:
1. Waterproofing
- Metal flashing effectively prevents water from penetrating critical joints in a building's structure, directing water away from vulnerable areas. It ensures that rainwater or snowmelt is channeled properly to protect the building from leaks and water damage.
2. Durability
- Metals used in flashing are long-lasting and resistant to corrosion, making them ideal for outdoor use in a variety of climates. They can withstand extreme weather conditions, including rain, snow, ice, and wind, and do not deteriorate easily.
3. Flexibility
- Metal flashing can be easily shaped and molded to fit a wide range of architectural designs and structures. It can be customized for various applications, including roof valleys, around chimneys, skylights, and over doors and windows.
4. Low Maintenance
- Once installed, metal flashing requires minimal maintenance. Unlike other materials, it does not need frequent repair or replacement, which saves both time and money in the long run.
5. Aesthetic Appeal
- Metal flashing can enhance the appearance of a building. It is often used in modern or contemporary architecture to provide a sleek, clean finish. Flashing can also be painted or coated to match the surrounding materials.
6. Protection from UV Rays
- Metal flashing helps protect areas exposed to direct sunlight from damage caused by UV rays, preventing material deterioration over time.
