Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Apron flashing belongs at the lowest edge of a vertical transition, lapped over the underlayment and shingles or metal panels below. At .0145 gauge it forms easily with a hand bender; avoid over-bending, which can fatigue aluminum. Keep laps at least a few inches and set fasteners high so water cannot track them.
Aluminum flashing edges are sharp; wear gloves and eye protection when cutting and forming.
Buy the TopShield 6 in. white aluminum apron flashing for a durable eave transition.
