hi guys
with top flashing, where the roof slope abuts a dormer wall, do you nail through the exposed leg of the flashing (the part laying on the shingles)
& then cement the heads, or do you only nail to the wall up under the siding
& use cement to hold the flashing down to the shingles?
also -- one book i was checking out showed top flashing as actually being 2 separate flashings -- one layer under the shingles and another flashing layer over the shingles once you've run them up to the wall -- kinda like flashing & counterflashing.
is this standard practice, or do most people generally only do the exposed layer of top flashing?
thanks!
