Kickout Flashing for the Roofing Industry

Kickout flashing is a small but essential aspect of a home’s roof that’s often forgotten. These small pieces of metal ensure your roof installation doesn’t cause major water damage to a home. As a professional roofer, you know the importance of proper installation. With the rainwater, snow and wind roofs have to withstand on a regular basis, attention to detail is critical.

Why Roofing Needs Kickout Flashing

Kickout flashing is an important addition to any home. As a roofing company, you should include this flashing in every project for several reasons.

Meet Building Codes

The International Residential Code (IRC) has required kickout flashing on homes since 2009. As a professional roofer, meeting these building codes is essential for remaining compliant and maintaining your trustworthy reputation.

Generally, kickout flashing needs to be installed where a roof slope intersects with a wall to divert the flow to the gutters. Building codes by state may also have requirements for kickout flashing. These building codes can clarify how long the kickout flashing needs to be and what circumstances require it.

Prevent Rot

When water runs off the roof into an intersecting wall repeatedly, it can cause major structural damage. This water damage is often hard to notice as it builds up. It can seep into brick and siding to drywall, causing water damage inside and out. The buildup of water can also lead to interior mold that’s unsafe for homeowners to live with.

It can take years for this damage to occur, but kickout flashing can prevent it from happening. Including this flashing in your roofing project will protect your clients and the longevity of their homes.

Protect Your Reputation

Your roof causing a rotted wall won’t speak well for your trustworthiness as a company. If a client discovers that the rot on their home is the result of your roof installation, you might face negative reviews and calls from customers who need your work redone under warranty. Installing kickout flashing from the beginning can prevent this problem and keep your reputation positive.
