“Your flashing is compromised.”
Okay… but what does that actually mean?
Flashing is designed to direct water away from vulnerable areas where different surfaces meet—around chimneys, walls, roof transitions, vents and other pe*******ons.
When that protection fails, water can find a pathway into the structure.
And that's why roofing terminology matters.
Because when a contractor tells you something is “compromised,” “deteriorated,” or “improperly installed,” you should understand what that means for your home—not just what it means in contractor language.
