Zinc Work
Zinc work refers to all the metal elements that ensure proper rainwater drainage around your roof: gutters, downpipes, valleys, fascia boards, chimney and dormer flashings.
These components play a vital role in your roof’s waterproofing and long-term durability.
At Prestige Habitat Roofwork, we handle the installation, renovation and maintenance of all zinc work elements in Zaventem, as well as in Kraainem, Wezembeek-Oppem, Evere, Woluwe, Auderghem, Etterbeek and surrounding areas.
What Are the Risks of Damaged Zinc Work?
Leaks under the roof covering (tiles, slates, or steel sheets)
Water overflowing onto façades or window frames
Persistent moisture in walls or roof structures
Corrosion of roofing or façade materials
Even a poorly sealed joint, a leaking gutter, or a clogged rain channel can cause serious damage.
That’s why we recommend a full inspection every 2 to 3 years, especially after a harsh winter.
