    Siding too large to caulk

    As you can see in the photo the bottom of the siding creates a gap that Is 3/4 of an inch to an inch. This is a picture of a wall with wooden siding that has a piece of trim metal running the length of where the siding meets the roof

    I fixed this by custom bending and cutting flashing to match each section and I screwed it in and sealed it off. Then caulked the entire length of wooden trim.

    Improperly flashed roof transition

    In this picture you can see outlined in red is the flashing I added. I forgot to get a before picture but I added this piece. It went 16 inches up under the metal roofing and 6 inches up the siding. I sealed the metal to the wall and screwed it off. I then caulked all the screw heads. This is definitely waterproof and is more than likely the main reason it was leaking still. 

    This is a picture of a red piece of metal flashing that goes under the metal roofing and butts up against a wooden wall and is sealed and screwed to the wall
