TOPIC: Step flashing and siding clearance to roof shingles.

Re: Step flashing and siding clearance to roof shingles. 13 years 8 months ago #33600

I usually make the comments as I go and save to the template.
Had a bunch of comments already in that template when I started, but never seem to be able to use many of them and each inspection is so darn different, that I have to keep making new ones.

I do have comments in my documents for when I need them, and if I do, it won't let me copy from my documents and paste on the open template when I am filling it in :).

Marcel, Step flashing w' siding down here isn't used. Quite frankly doesn't make sense. 3x5 flashing long lenghts here and yes 1-2 " exposure at siding to flashing. Why would all those joints w/ step fkashing be better than a solid flashing (i'm referring to it w/ siding not masonry). That's all we ever use for siding flashing to roof around here. Also we don't use the material in the video under felt. Of course we don't need a snow guard here. :)

Joe, other than providing a nesting ground for Birds, that flashing is wrong. I would have to see what the roof covering is. It does not appear to be roof shingles, where step flashing would have been required. If it is a metal roof, it is still wrong.  :)
