Sidewall flashing

Sidewall flashing, also known as wall-to-roof flashing, is a technical solution used where the roof meets vertical building elements, such as walls, chimneys, or parapets. Its purpose is to seal these joints and prevent water from entering the structure. Wall-to-roof flashings typically consist of two parts: the lower flash (installed on the roof surface, where it meets the wall) and the upper flash (attached to the wall or chimney, often covered by a pressure strip). The entire assembly is sealed with silicone or special roofing tape, which ensures complete watertightness. They are most often made of galvanized sheet metal coated with protective coatings that can even double its corrosion resistance.

Counter-flashing strip

A counter-flashing strip is a sidewall flashing that belongs to the group of sidewall flashings. Installed together with sidewall flashing, it helps ensure maximum watertightness and proper alignment of the roof coverings around chimneys and parapets. Additionally, to protect vertical surfaces (walls) against water seepage, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with the other components of the wall flashing kit:

The Pruszyński Company guarantees that each individual order will be produced in the same color (shade). However, due to the complexity of the coating processes, slight variations in shade may occur between individual shipments. Liability for color is therefore limited to a single delivery.
For this reason, when reordering sheets from a specific batch, please indicate on the order form or inform your sales representative that this is a follow-up order and provide a color sample.
To ensure color consistency between sandwich panels and other elements, such as flashings, please order them from a single supplier.

Do you have any questions?

What types of flashings are available for metal roof tiles?
The basic flashings for modular roof tiles include: modular barge flashing, Upper barge flashing and side barge flashings, Omega and barrel-shaped ridge caps, ventilation eaves battens, valley gutters, sidewall flashings, under-gutter strips, over-gutter flashing, and drainage gutters. You can find all the flashings available in our product range at this link: TYPICAL METAL FLASHINGS
Does the roof need maintenance?
Yes, every roof requires periodic inspections to check for any damage. Most products offered by the Blachy Pruszyński Company are available with various types of specialized coatings (covered by Warranty) that increase the service life and durability of metal roofing. Maintenance mainly involves removing soot and chimney dust, which, if left for an extended period, can damage the metal sheeting. Particular attention should be paid to the areas around chimneys, which are critical due to more demanding operating conditions. If localized damage to the paint coating is noticed during an inspection of the roofing, touch-up painting should be performed. In such situations, the best solution is to use dedicated touch-up paints matched to the specific coating. The Blachy Pruszyński Company offers such paints as part of its regular product line, and it is strongly recommended to use the company’s products that are recommended for the specific coating.
What kind of gutters should I use with metal roof tiles?
The choice of gutters for metal roof tiles depends mainly on the size (surface area) and pitch of the roof, as well as aesthetic preferences. The primary consideration is the material from which the gutters are made—PVC and metal gutters are available on the market. It’s worth noting that metal gutters, coated with protective finishes, are much more durable, resistant to changing weather conditions, and blend in more aesthetically with metal roofing. We encourage you to explore our selection of NIAGARA metal gutters: NIAGARA METAL GUTTERS
Are modular roof tiles weather-resistant?
Modular roof tiles are designed to ensure a watertight roof covering, which is why they are made of durable and resistant materials. Protective coatings (polyester or polyurethane) play a particularly important role here. These coatings make the metal roof tiles resistant to various weather conditions. However, it’s also worth noting that metal roof tiles will perform their function perfectly as long as they are installed correctly, in accordance with the assembly instructions.
Is it possible to install copper flashings on a steel roof?
Caution must be exercised when using copper, as copper oxides are highly corrosive and cause corrosion of other metals. For this reason, it must not be combined with other types of metals on buildings (copper reacts upon contact and causes electrolytic corrosion of other metals).
Can I use an angle grinder to cut sheets?
Modern roof coverings preclude the use of angle grinders for cutting. Using this method to cut the material will void the Warranty.
An angle grinder generates a great deal of heat during operation and cutting, which in turn damages the edges of the sheet metal as well as its protective coating. Additionally, the metal shavings produced during operation become embedded in the sheet metal’s surface, creating potential corrosion sites.
The proper way to cut sheet metal is to use automatic nibblers or hand shears. These tools use mechanical force to cut the sheet metal without exposing it to extreme temperature fluctuations. Additionally, it’s worth remembering that after cutting, it’s a good idea to protect the cut edges with a dedicated protective varnish or special paint.
Why are metal roof tiles recommended for renovating old roofs?
This is directly related to its light weight. In the case of old roofs, the roof trusses of renovated houses are often already somewhat worn down by time. Therefore, it is safer to use metal roof tiles, which weigh around 4.7 kg/m², rather than ceramic roof tiles, which are nearly ten times heavier. However, it’s always a good idea to have a specialist inspect the condition of the roof truss and confirm whether it requires renovation or replacement after all. In such cases, the safety of the building’s residents or employees, as well as the installation crew, is always the top priority. In most situations, however, the condition of the structure allows for the use of metal roof tiles without major issues, whereas the use of ceramic roof tiles would no longer be possible.
