Another video from our longer series where we will be highlighting Historical Preservation Details in Standing Seam.

The rake flashing is vital to a good looking and leak proof roof. These flashings can slide or be blown off if not made and secured properly. This particular detail works when you are working with a double locked ridge. A challenging, but a worthwhile detail to have in your repertoire.

Our full video series will be covering:

  • Rake Cleat and Rake Flashing installation
  • Pipe Jacks / Pipe Flashing
  • Double Seamed Valleys
  • Double Seamed Ridges
  • Cross Seams
  • Boxed Eaves Style

Some of these details may be helpful to expand your knowledge and skills in this trade. We hope you find the videos valuable.
