Roof flashing is a thin layer of sheet metal that's installed on your roof for the primary purpose of directing water away from crevices that are susceptible to leaks. Common areas where roof flashing is installed are on the sides of your chimney, around skylights, and against dormers or other structures attached to your roof. Properly installed roof flashing can be your roof's greatest defense against heavy precipitation and potential leaks.

However, this can create some complications for you down the road. Painted shingles will require more maintenance in order to keep the paint well-preserved. Using the wrong paint can also cause your roof some damage and make it more prone to leaks in the future.

Asphalt shingles are the most common type of shingles in the United States. Asphalt shingles are made using asphalt, fiberglass, and granular fragments. At its core, the asphalt shingle is made of a sheet of fiberglass, which is coated in asphalt and then given a layer of rubber granules (which give your roof its color). Then the shingle is coated in a sealant/laminate to create a single piece of roofing material.
