Top notch work, great to see there are still professionals out there. I am writing a repair for a wrong way skylight and your work is a great refresher. I think the people who did the skylights im writing on dropped them on the roof ran panels around them and filled the edges with elastomeric lmao. but at least people like that give me lots of work to write up.
I am glad my video was helpful. Flashing skylights and chimneys is tedious work. But if done correctly, they don't leak. Unfortunately, people get in a hurry and often take shortcuts. Good luck on the repair. I hope you get the opportunity to take care of that customer.
Scott, that will never leak, you have flashing on top of flashing. Better to take your time and do it the right way. I can see how your sheet metal skills really are handy for this. Making good progress, stay safe and cool.
No. Still a lot of work to do. I have a few videos worth of clips on the Gopro I still need to edit. I just need to get motivated to do them. Each video takes me at least two house to edit. I have been so tired at the end of the day, I haven't felt like doing them.
Should have used double sided sticky tar tape,.... or Grace Ice and Water Shield 36 in. x 75 ft. Roll Self-Adhered Roofing Underlayment,... on the skylights.
It looks like the Grace Ice and Water Shield is not fire resistant and would not meet the class A fire resistance requirements for the WUI zone where we are building. The roof was covered with Titanium FR which is a peel and stick. I then used Polystick XFR, which is also a fire rated peel and stick, to roll up the side of the curbs. Then to make it even more waterproof, I used the foil backed flashing tape to cover the Polystick since it was easier to get all the way to the top of the skylight curb. I guess the only thing I could have done better is add another layer of the flashing tape over the metal roof flashing before adding the final skylight flashing. It is nice to hear you are using quality materials as well. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.

That is my hope anyway. I was really looking forward to the metal roof but it is definitely time consuming.
Great tutorial
Sorry. Didn't see your comment until now. Thank you!
Hey Scott, haven't seen any update videos in a long time. You must be moved in by now.

@@HamiltonServices530 I hear ya. Maybe just a quick walk thru on a day you're not real busy. Dying to see the progress.
@@steveandriese5619 You shamed me into putting out a video. One will be out in the morning, I worked on it last night and this evening.

Hell of a video, can’t wait to get back up on the roof! #milwaukeetools
These 90-100 degree days are not making it easy.
