Older mobile home with the almost flat metal roof. Hate painting the edges every year. I keep thinking this ice and water shield, the stuff with the sticky back, would work great. [url]http://www.na.graceconstruction.com/underlayments/download/GIWS-196B%20RDM%20Data%20Sheet.pdf[/url] It says: [B][I]Do not leave permanently exposed to sunlight. Cover within 30 days.[/I][/B] So, thinking of getting the 9" stuff, put on the outer edge where it wants to leak, and paint over it with the silver fibered coating. It does say:[B][I] Low temperature flexibility Unaffected @ -20°F [/I][/B] So, I'm just not sure if it would stay down, even being painted over with the silver stuff. Think it would stick? Thanks

Two days ago I had a new roof installed and two skylights replaced on my house. The roofer insisted on installing the new skylights because the old ones showed signs of wear and that it had been repaired before. That morning I got a call from the roofer asking me if it was okay to remove the attic fan because it wouldn't be needed with the new ridge vent they would be cutting in the roof. I let them remove it because it made sense the way he explained how the attic and roof would vent with the new ridge vent. Anyway, let me get to why I am posting this message: I checked on the guys at least twice just to sure everything was going ok. The last time I went out to check on then I notice a VELUX skylight laying in the grass, but it looked different than the one they had already installed. So I asked the foreman about the skylight and he said they were to small, so they had to install a Wasco skylight instead. I thought that was weird that they didn't call me or knock on the door to let me know what was going on. So I go inside the house to take another look at the one they had already installed and I noticed it's not flush with the drywall like the old ones were. In fact it looks like was slightly bigger. So I called the owner of the company to ask him about the skylights and he proceeds to tell me that he was just out at my house and that he didn't think I was home. At this point I am upset because I told him I was going to be home all day and he had called me earlier to ask me about the attic fan. So he and I go back and forth for a while and he's telling me how they installed the skylight and that he saw it and it looked fine. He also said what I was looking at was totally cosmetic. So I get my step ladder out and this is what I see from the inside: [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/543/photo1lz.jpg/][IMG]http://img543.imageshack.us/img543/2926/photo1lz.th.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/695/photo2qcs.jpg/][IMG]http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/2205/photo2qcs.th.jpg[/IMG][/URL] My concern is not whether or not the skylight is installed correctly from the outside, but whether or not it's installed correctly from the inside. Looks like they left the old skylights trim kit. Does this look right, is it installed correctly? I am worried about the area where the drywall meets the plywood of the roof. Will the attic vent back into the house or vice versa? I am also concerned about moisture from the attic. Thanks
