This is a repost of my post in the roofing section. Anybody??
So I'll be doing my metal roofing in a couple weeks. I've ordered the metal, but none of the accessories (flashing, etc.)
There is one part that I cannot visualize. The lower pitch on my gambrel roof is 20/12. I have gable dormers on the lower pitch, which start right at the pitch change. I understand that you normally take the metal down to about 2-3" from the bottom of the valley. My question is how do I terminate that valley flashing properly back in with the regular vertical pitch? There will be 6" overhangs on the dormers. I found a building that has a similar setup, but still cannot clearly visualize what to do. Can anybody help?
