I am building my first roof and have some questions about flashing and ridge tiles. For the abutment (first photo), I plan to use cavity trays with integral lead flashing. For the other side (first photo), I am not sure how to form the flashing. The gap between the ridge and the chimney is 4.5”, the architect has recommended taking the ridge tiles past the chimney and up to the existing roof tiles. Then building a wooden support between the chimney and ridge tiled and using a long lead flashing to go from the chimney over the ridge tile and down over the tiles. Does anyone have any thoughts about the best way to do this?
