Bay roof

Skilled roofer finally came back (on a Sunday) to finish the spot above the bay window.

It's a clever solution for an uncommon roofing material. Flat flashing was installed earlier in the middle section with its bottom loose. J-flashing went on the sloped sides. Both had stucco weep screed installed over it with an inch gap. Stucco was then finished.

Now roof tiles are tucked under the middle flashing and folded over the J on the sides, which terminate cleanly at a lip in the corner. Barrels then cover the hip ridge transition, caulked with roofing cement and covered with matching granulated stones.

It's both weather tight and looks good.
