Since this was an introductory guide to the basics of standing seam metal roof installations we purposefully left out more technical details such as z bar flashing end wall and valley flashing details however they are covered in the video above if you like to learn more about the components that go beyond the basics.
Rubber flash for standing seam roof.
Available in sizes to fit 1 4 to 26 od pipes in gray or black epdm and in high temp red silicone.
When installed properly epdm flashing can last 20 or more years on the standing seam metal roof.
Examine all seams on your roof for splitting or separating.
Flexible to conform to panel profiles.
Whenever possible flashing should avoid interrupting a seam.
Multi flash square bottom retrofit flashing.
Similar to the round bottom design above but with a bigger footprint for standing seam roofs.
It joint flashes hi rib and standing seam profiles and easily flashes between dissimilar materials with a superior fit and seal.
Valley cap the valley cap is made of epdm rubber has uv inhibitors and comes with a 20 year weather resistant warranty.

To do this without puncturing or damaging the rubber membrane watch for small stones or debris that could puncture it if stepped on.
Locating a separated seam on an epdm rubber roof will usually require that you walk on your roof.
Seal with butyl tape beneath base.
But the performance of any roof can be compromised by needed penetrations to accommodate other building systems.
Done poorly those penetrations can cause leaks building damage and unnecessary expenses.
Epdm material protects against weathering.

End cap flashing standing seam roof ssr sealant and fasteners for installation.
Locate round penetrations centrally in the panel.
For bur tar hot applied and bitumen roofing.
Standing seam metal roofs have proven record of longevity and value in providing a very weathertight roofing solution.
Then fillet with one part polyurethane.
Anchor epdm flashing directly to the standing seam metal roof panels to maintain the thermal movement properties of the roof panels.
Other flashings include gable trim which runs up the sloped ends of the roof and drip edge or eave trim.
High performance for metal roof applications.
