I like to use a TPO pan over running 2' back up the roof (or some membrane) - no cuts/folds/holes from nails and you can go vertical with a heat welded seam
Because water moves laterally between the shingles and the continuous piece. Think about it. If water gets in, how does it get out? I’ve heard guys say “just caulk the crap out of it and it will never get it.” If it does though, now you’ve actually trapped the water inside. The whole idea of steps is to continue the redundancy of the shingles up your wall. Sorry if I’m not explaining this well but Brian definitely explains the redundancy really well in this and other videos
Yes to @CoffeeTroll (and I'm sitting here with my cup). Say some water did come against the wall but got between a shingle and the flashing. It would then be under the shingle layer, and looking for a nail hole in the underlayment to get further into the house. With step flashing, if water gets on the flashing, it has to exit back to the outside at the next shingle. It protects against water driving along the roof or down the wall.
The one-piece flashing can be used as counter-flashing AFTER you do the step-flashing. Personally, I like the look of step counter-flashing, but many do the one continuous piece because it saves time.
@@MaMa-qh4dyabsolutely agree laziness also seems to motivate people or saving money, but I want to sleep at night and not have my customers call me at 2 in the morning
More HACK work to be fixed. Crazy they didnt just build up the roof when the did the shingles to make it flow off. Ignoring the blockade above the sun room is moronic!
Would like to see the fix video!

Question why don't they use a continuous flashig instead of step flashig?

No one has video of roof around Turbine vent and how to seal it. How to shingle Trapezoid roof with large area. Can you make some videos of that?
What about a large cricket?
Dos tile Roof exist in USA ? In Germany sind diese Stellen auch oft undicht ...aber auf Ziegeldächern.
They do, copper roofs, slate roofs etc. But its rare and only on expensinve homes.
Got to get it right 👍👍
id be more worried about the nail hole in that flashing right next to the wall that flashing was ruined when installed
Dude I don’t know what a head lap is!
That's a lot of damage and money wasted by poor construction.
Greek to me!
