Ledger flashing is a critical component in any deck installation, directing rainwater away from the vulnerable connection between your deck and house. This Amerimax plastic ledger flashing cap fits over the ledger board and tucks behind existing siding to create a continuous water barrier. By preventing water from infiltrating this junction, the flashing stops costly rot, mold growth, and structural damage before they start.
The Z-bar profile design channels water safely away from your deck foundation while the flexible plastic construction allows for quick, straightforward installation. This flashing is engineered to work safely with pressure-treated lumber without galvanic reaction or corrosion, making it an ideal choice for new deck builds and repairs alike.
