Quick as a Flash(ing): How Prefabricated Flashings Make Your Install Speed By

FlashCo Prefabricated Flashings
August 15, 2022 at 6:00 a.m.

By Cass Jacoby. 

Flashco is working hard to ensure installations go as smoothly as possible; read on to learn how this flashings manufacturer is working to make your life easier. 

In a new Roofing Road Trips episode, Heidi J. Ellsworth meets with Greg Morrow, President and Founder of FlashCo. “In 2000, I started FlashCo because the value proposition of prefab is undeniable,” says Greg. “Prefabricated accessories reduced the reliance on labor and the art of field fabrication which requires higher skilled labor and experience. Prefabricated accessories made sense then and they make sense now.” 

The two talk about how Flashco designed their prefabricated accessories with contractor ease in mind. Not only are the flashings a no-brainer to the contractor looking to improve their performance while installing faster, it is the trusting relationships Flashco has developed with manufacturers and distributors that helps make contractors' lives easier.  

“This gives contractors the edge over the job they're bidding on and their competition,” says Greg. “FlashCo partners directly with most manufacturers and distributors, thus can handle both NDL and non NDL jobs. If the contractor tells FlashCo first what they need for a quote or a job, and they get their questions answered right the first time, that's it, FlashCo handles the rest. You see, most jobs go through manufacturers or distributors. The unique thing about FlashCo is we handle both while keeping everyone involved, informed.” 

While accessories are often the last thing contractors think about on their job, it cannot be denied that it is important to have the right parts at the right time to finish the job. “So accelerating the process when they're needed and ensuring accuracy is critical,” says Greg.  “With our online systems and portals, a roofer can readily see all the parts, get information on sizing and usage and make sure they are getting exactly what they need.”
