Coverage & How Much You Need:
One piece steps one shingle or tile course; quantity equals the number of courses along the flashing run, so divide run height by the course exposure to estimate pieces.
Fit and Compatibility:
Pairs with Bay Cities Metal valley, tile pan, and other Zincalume flashing products under shingle or tile roof coverings. Overlap each piece with the next course per standard step flashing practice.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q: What is included?
A: One flat step flashing piece in your chosen size and gauge.
Q: Which size should I use?
A: 8 in. x 12 in. gives more metal behind shingles and up the wall for wider exposures; 6 in. x 8 in. suits tighter details and shorter exposures.
Q: What gauge is best?
A: 26 GA is thicker and stiffer; 28 GA is lighter and easier to form. Both are listed for this line.
Q: How many pieces do I need?
A: One piece per course, so count courses along the vertical run and add waste.
Q: Will it corrode?
A: The Zincalume zinc/aluminum coating provides corrosion protection.
Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Order one piece per shingle course and never let fasteners penetrate the exposed portion of the step flashing; the piece above must lap the piece below. The 8 in. x 12 in. size is the workhorse choice for standard shingle courses, while 6 in. x 8 in. works for tile or narrow exposures. Do not mix uncoated galvanized and Zincalume pieces in the same run.
Cut flashing edges are sharp; wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection when handling and bending step flashing.
