Roof-to-wall flashing detail at an asphalt shingle roof butting against continuous PBR metal panel siding is poorly sealed with multiple layers of sealant instead of a proper behind-siding flashing, causing leakage risk.
Existing solution (sealant) is a temporary workaround; no purpose-built product or standard method exists to retroactively flash this specific roof-wall intersection without cutting the siding.

- Compression plate to secure flashing against uneven gaps
- Corrosion-resistant fasteners and instructions for retrofit installation
- Gap coverage from 0 to 2 inches without cutting siding
