SimonD 701 Posted March 12, 2022 Who did the detailing on the external corners and upstands for your dormers as they're incorrect and leave you exposed to weathering. . Ideally, you're going to need some flashing over the corners and upstands to resolve this. Here are the recommended details together with examples of upstand and welted/soldered corners: 1 Link to comment

No weather can get in there. Flashing is an option but it doesnt look as good, better to form the flashing from Panels . Link to comment

These are the areas I was referring to, especially the external corner, but the upstands at the junction between the roof and the bottom of the dormer are too low . Link to comment

Too low for what purpose. Apologies for my lack of understanding but there is cladding going on the entire dormer and a window cill integrated flashing on the bottom. How would you imagine water getting into these sections. There are several ways to approach a metal roof , it all depends on the setup and rest of the building . Thanks for the good advise but the detailing is spot on 👍 Link to comment
