Metal flashing has been used for a long time as it offers excellent resistance to corrosion and durability. At Buildworld, we have an extensive range of flashing manufactured from lead, reinforced aluminium foil, other metals or a modified polyethene compound, which are installed to provide a weather-resistant barrier between the roof tilling and wall to prevent the rise of dampness through the external walls. Our metal rolls are available in various grades and roll lengths, making them ideal for all roofing applications and last up to 3 times longer than other alternatives. Traditionally used in roofing applications in buildings such as churches, offices, schools, extensions and homes used between the chimney and roof or used to join gutters to drains for protection against water and weathering, metals are proven to provide long-life durability to the substrate that it is applied to.
Due to its malleable ability metals can be used on corners, curves, bends, and other awkward shapes. Made from recyclable material, sheet metals are malleable and are easily shaped, formed, bend and cut for use in different applications, including flashing. At Buildworld we offer metal, lead as well as lead-free products for roofing and ventilation needs. These come to you from leading brands like Fakro and Keylite.
