@JeanRobinson28 in all fairness, ive dont the same thing on grand Sequoia
shingles and put a bead of tube cement under the low spots…but it’s not
great roofing only par…

I meant 26 gauge flashing. Its not 28 gauge, but 26 gauge roof-to-wall
flashing. The lower the number the thicker. We only use 26 gauge flashing
with a baked on enamel finish.

Its called apron and it should have a hem and a kick. How did you handle
the returns?

Good observation JeanRobinson28. Are you familiar with the Woodmoor
shingle? It appears as though there is a gap cut out of the shingle because
there is. The good news is that the gap is only 5 inches do if water is
driven up that space it will hit the but end of the shingles. It’s a full
tab with a “pumpkin tooth” cut out of the middle. Long story short… No
water can get up that gap very far before it’s stopped by asphalt shingles.
Again, thanks for the good observation and comment.

@rofermarc1; apron, header, roof-to-wall, same thing. What purpose would a
hem or kick do for roof-to-wall? @dekonfrost7; its best practice which is
more than most do. Some would tuck shingles under the siding.
@JeanRobinson28; science says otherwise. Water will not do that. At most
wind driven rain will go 1″ up a vertical surface. Here we have a 4″ face
and probable another 4″ behind the siding. @ProroofingNW, I like your posts.

Let’s keep the dialogue going… We use the 26 G Roof to Wall flashing with
the baked enamel because it holds up to lots of bad weather really well. In
this case, it was pretty tucked away and hidden. If you could see on the
other side the roof make a return and there is chimney there protecting the
flashing. A more exposed area could use calking over the grommets for extra
protection. We have lots of rain in Seattle and this system for RTW
flashing seems to work really well.

One good rainstorm with driving winds and water will be driven in under the
edge where your flashing sits on the shingles! The gaps under the metal are
visible with the naked eye!
