Custom Gutter Flashing IN MELBOURNE, Installation & Repair
Flashing doesn’t get much attention, but it’s doing important work. It seals the joins, corners, and edges where your roof meets walls, valleys, and other surfaces — and when it fails, water finds its way in quickly.
At O’Shea Trades, we fabricate and install custom gutter flashing for Melbourne homes and commercial properties. Whether your flashing has lifted, corroded, or was never fitted properly to begin with, we can get it sorted.
A box gutter sits within the roof plane rather than hanging off the fascia on the outside edge. You’ll find them on older Melbourne homes with parapet walls, on low-pitched roofs, and where two roof sections meet in a valley. They’re also common on commercial and industrial buildings with internal drainage.
Because they’re built into the roofline, they’re not always easy to inspect, and when something goes wrong, the signs often don’t show up until water has already been getting in for a while.
Because they’re built into the roofline, they’re not always easy to inspect, and when something goes wrong, the signs often don’t show up until water has already been getting in for a while. Where box gutters are commonly used:
- Between two roof sections on double-storey homes
- Behind parapet walls on older period properties
- On low-pitched or flat roof sections
- Commercial and industrial buildings
Custom Flashing Made to Fit Your Roof
Off-the-shelf flashing often doesn’t fit the way it should. Melbourne homes vary a lot in age, style, and roof configuration, and what works on one property can be wrong for another.
We fabricate flashing to suit your roof, with the right profile, the right dimensions, and matched to your existing colour and material where possible. Whether it’s Colorbond, zincalume, or another metal, we’ll make sure it fits properly and does its job.
Flashing Repairs
Not every flashing problem needs a full replacement. If the damage is contained – a lifted section, a failed sealant joint, a small area of corrosion – a targeted repair is usually all that’s needed. Common issues we fix:
-
Flashing that has lifted or pulled away from the wall -
Failed or cracked sealant causing leaks
-
Corrosion on older metal flashing
-
Poorly installed flashing from a previous job
-
Gaps at wall junctions letting water in behind the cladding
If we can repair it cleanly and it’ll hold, we’ll say so. If it’s deteriorated past the point of a reliable fix, we’ll let you know that too.
Licensed, Insured, and Backed by a 10-Year Warranty
All flashing work is carried out by licenced tradespeople. O’Shea Trades holds the relevant building licences and registrations, and every job is fully insured.
Every installation we complete is also backed by our 10-year workmanship warranty. If something we’ve done isn’t holding up, we’ll come back and fix it.
