Re: Just finished up
I'm surprised that chimney corner is closed off, instead of open for better flow. Kinda like this.
I hate having to rely on the caulk, or even solder for that matter. |

Re: Just finished up
I saw that as well tinner! and was thinking the same, but apart from that looks a neat job(from someone who has never used shingles!)

Re: Just finished up
there is actually flashing but i covered it for looks. the corner lands right at the end of the valley so there is plenty of flow. and yes they are GAF Timberline 30yr. Williamsburg Slate.

Re: Just finished up
Most roofers leave it uncovered for looks and practility. I've found too many of them leaking. You must have soldered it because caulk will let it leak when done that way. May take a year or two, but it will.

Re: Just finished up
What's with the 5th. shingle up in the last pic? Why does it have a diagonal cut? I meant to ask before, but forgot. '
Lines are nice and straight. |

Re: Just finished up
i weaved the bottom four because of the flashing underneath so i could get a nail on it. the exposed part is covering the weathered copper so it is not nailed just caulked in place and nailed under the shingles on the other deck. i didn't have to put it on but it looks alot better. the picture above it of the old roof shows the flashing i covered. and the diaganal cut is the end of the valley.
