Roof flashing overlay system
A flashing overlay system for overlaying roofing materials occupying a roof valley includes multiple planar flashing units having at least one first non-planar feature, the flashing units arranged in pairs including a left flashing unit and a right flashing unit, the flashing unit pairs covering the roofing materials occupying the roof valley along the length and track of the roof valley, the paired flashing units abutted together along the edges of the planar material supporting the at least one first non-planar feature, the first non-planar features aligned generally with the center line of the roof valley. The units are tired together with at least one elongated saddle strip folded over at longitudinal center and clamped over, fastened over, or otherwise fitted over the abutted first non-planar features of the multiple planar flashing units paired together and overlaying the roofing materials occupying the roof valley.
Solar carport and water management and icicle prevent system for solar carports and canopies
The embodiments are apparatuses, systems and methods of water management and icicle prevention for solar carports, and are designed to catch drips between rows of, and water run-off from, the low side of inclined photovoltaic modules arranged to form the roof of the solar carport or canopy.
Valley Flashing
A valley flashing including two roof panels adapted to protect a roof valley. Some embodiments include one or more attachment flanges joined to the roof panels. Some embodiments include one or more protrusions for protection from water infiltration under roof shingles.

Method and apparatus for metal valley installation
A unique method and apparatus for metal valley installation that waterproofs shingled roof applications in valley (e.g., such as “V” or “W” metal valley angled roof) applications. Applicant's invention provides a membrane situated between the metal valley and the shingles with a portion of the membrane being situated and secured to the roof deck between the ice and water shield and the shingles. The membrane creates a dead zone that collects or prevents ice and water from backing up from the roof valley over the metal valley, over the edge of the metal valley, and in between the ice and water shield and the shingles.
ROOF MOUNTING SYSTEM
The present invention relates to a roof mounting system with a locating and waterproofing device (100) which is formed from a water impermeable medium. The device has a short edge (104) which is dimensioned to rest against and be secured to a batten (121) and a long edge (106), whose upper portion rests on an upper surface of the batten (121). A lower portion of the locating and waterproofing device rests on a lower slate or stone (10A) and is sandwiched between the lower slate or stone (10A) and an upper slate or stone (10B) so that a continuous barrier (102) is formed along the long edge (106) to provide a water resistant barrier and to create a void (116) between the lower slate or stone (10A) and the upper slate or stone (10B).
WATERPROOFING BUILDING PRODUCT
In one aspect there is disclosed a waterproofing building product (10) for use in waterproofing a joint (12) between a first and second roofing panel (14, 16). The waterproofing building product (10) includes an overlapping section (18) operatively adapted to overlap a portion of the first roofing panel (14) and an underlapping section (20) operatively adapted to underlap a portion of the second roofing panel (16). The waterproofing building product (10) further includes a transition section (22) located between the overlapping section (18) and the underlapping section (20) and connecting the overlapping section (18) with the underlapping section (20).
