Hello

Wanting to install a Velux Skylight in my bathroom. Roof has about a 10 degree slope with corregated tin roofing. I have found so far that supposedly the FCM Curb mounted model is supposedly the best bet for this situation. I am not sure if the EPDM flashing kit for metal roofs works for this model or not. I found a post in the contractor forum that said the kit for metal roofs from Velux are crap anyways. Is there a way to make your own leak proof flashing for this situation? Does anyone have any experience with this?

Lead

Thanks for all your help thus far tinner. I suppose you use lead because it is easily maleable and will form to the corregated tin? Do you know of any photos anywhere of an application your refering to? I think I have a round of bout idea but can understand much easier with photos. This will be my first skylight install..

Thanks
