Tinsmithing
Metal Details, Total Protection
Water infiltration often starts where the roof meets other elements: chimneys, walls, roof windows... Without well-executed tinsmithing, these junctions become weak points.
PC QUALITÉ TOITS Inc. in Greater Montreal and on the South Shore installs and repairs your flashings, fascias, and other metal elements for maximum protection and a flawless finish.
Tinsmithing done right means a protected roof.
What Is Tinsmithing, and Why Is It Essential?
Tinsmithing covers all the metal elements on a roof that ensure its watertightness and durability. It prevents water from seeping into sensitive areas and enhances the aesthetic appearance of the building.
The Main Elements of Tinsmithing:
Protect junctions between the roof and other structures (walls, chimneys, skylights).
Improve ventilation under the roof and protect roof edges from moisture.
Keep water away from the walls and reinforce the roof's strength.
Efficiently direct rainwater away from the foundation.
The Benefits of Well-Executed Tinsmithing
A well-protected roof starts with impeccable tinsmithing. Perfectly fitting flashings and metal trims prevent infiltration and ensure your roof's durability against the elements. Beyond protection, these details add a touch of elegance to your building while avoiding costly repairs.
