Roof To Sidewall Joint Sealing

For units with over the fibergass roof skin awning rail.

Roof to sidewall joint sealing.

Used to seal roof to sidewall joint previously the silicone needs to be thoroughly removed so the urethane will adhere to fiberglass and aluminum trim. Looking at the awming mount and the roof to sidewall joint. More questonable or ugly roof wall flashing examples. For units without over the roof paint cap seal the roof fiberglass and trim with 072889 10 000 bright white urethane.

I have searched and read about this. A roof expansion joint emseal roofjoint is a patented dual seal double flanged extruded thermoplastic rubber system for sealing expansion joints in roofs. The roof to sidewall joint is broken right above the leak area. Watertightness is achieved through positive integration with the roofing membrane and a purpose designed system for transitioning between the joint in the roof and joints in walls.

Below we illustrate that using a single piece of metal flashing where the uppermost edge of a shed roof abuts a vertical building sidewall works fine though the use of exposed nails see our photo below may form leak or wear points in the roof. A metal roof is engineered to last decades sealing out water and wind and easily shedding snow. It is designed to resist hail mold mildew rodents and other animals. I also have the sealant callout sheet for my unit.
