What We Do
Flashing is the formed metal or membrane that catches water at those points and directs it back out to the surface. It is the part of the building envelope that fails first when it is missing, undersized or poorly lapped.
Good flashing is not a bead of caulking. It is a layered system. Every piece laps over the one below it so gravity carries water out, it integrates with the weather resistive barrier and house wrap, and it is fabricated to suit the detail rather than forced into a stock shape. That is why we design and bend custom flashings for the conditions on your home.
Our crew has more than 25 years of experience in custom flashing design and installation, including work alongside some of the largest restoration companies in BC, where getting the detail right is the whole job.

Yes, Even In A Dry Climate
The Okanagan may get less rain than the coast, but it still sees wind-driven rain, rapid snowmelt, ice damming and constant freeze-thaw cycling. Water only needs a small opening. A slow leak behind the cladding can rot sheathing and framing, feed mould, and soak insulation for years before any stain shows up inside, and by then the repair is rarely small.
