The core purpose of skylight flashing, including all other roof flashing systems, is to keep the maximum possible of moisture on the surface of the roofing material. These are specifically created to shed water, without completely relying on the sealants that can eventually break down over wear and tear. There are different varieties of flashing systems available in the market, delivering a perfect weather tight fit for any type of slopes and roofs. Low profile skylight flashing system is ideal for roofs, as they are constructed from light-weight materials like shakes and shingles. On the other hand, high profile flashing is used for roofing systems, with thicker materials like concrete tile or Spanish varieties. For metal roofs, there is a variety of skylight flashing available in the market, known as metal flashing. Underlayment flashing systems guarantee added protection and best skylight fit from harsh weather conditions. Additionally, there are several other flashing solutions available for skylights installed on low-sloped or flat roof systems. To properly roof and flash around the skylight, slightly raising the curb can help, which includes adding 1 or 2 layers of lumber at the top of the curb. This also provides an impressive look to the inner side of the skylight.
