Re: valley flashing
John
It's hard to tell from the photo if there is any slope in that valley (doesn't look like it has any though). If it does not have slope then a cricket is needed.
A flat valley is not good, even though it may not be leaking now.
Substantial damage will result if not corrected.
I remodeled a house just a few months ago with a roof similar to that, cost to repair the rot, termites, wall, roof, floor, ect was >$12K.
Every time I have seen that type of roof drainage it's on a house with a room addition. Look for other problems such as in the foundation.
