Re: Counter flashing at chimney
The flashing is wrong. The bottom/counter/apron flashing should be on top of the last row of shingles. Homeowners complain they don't like the way it looks. All they want to see is their pretty shingles not 'that dark, ugly metal stuff'. I have no problem with a few shingles glued on top of the flashing for appearance. The second I see one nail through it though it's a defect.
