Roof window flashings are an essential component of roof window installations. Their main function is to ensure that the seal between the roof window and the roofing tiles are totally watertight, weatherproofing the windows and the area around them.  

Our roof window flashing kits are manufactured by Fakro, one of the fastest growing manufacturers of roof windows and related products in the world. They are designed for use with Fakro roof windows.  

Roof flashings in the category include flat, profiled, high-profiled, slate, and plain tile flashings.

Maintenance of roof window flashings 

Keeping your flashings up to standard is thankfully an easy job. All you really need to do is remove any leaves or other debris that may have collected on and around the flashings, about once a year. This allows rainwater to flow freely away from the installation. 

We also recommend removing any heavy snow if it has been sitting there for an extended period of time, as this can cause damage to the flashings.
