Roof Penetrations

Parapet Walls
A parapet is a barrier which is an extension of the wall at the edge of a roof, terrace, balcony, walkway or other structure.
Flashing
Usually aluminum or galvanized steel used over joints in roof and wall construction to prevent water seeping in and causing damage.
Sheathings
A wood panel or sheet material fastened to the roof rafters or trusses on which the shingle is laid.
Frame Repairs
Roof framing is one of those carpenter skills that appears quite complicated, and indeed, some roof designs are difficult. The purpose of a roof frame is to provide a structure that spans the walls of the building and supports the roof covering. In some cases, parts of the frame may need to be replaced before the new roof is installed or to make repairs.
