Sure looks good John. :ThumbsUp
The big blow the other day revealed another issue with wind driven water. The now Lean To was full of water underneath making a muddy mess. I didn't realize how much water would blow under the old brake metal I tacked down for trim. $1310 dollars later I have enough trim metal and expanding sealing foam tape to fix this roof as well as my home roof.

This is not all the trim but I broke up the bundle before taking a picture of it. I already installed a bit up top staging my pickup so standing in the bed I can lay what I need up on the roof then install it. Since the wind was howling again today the trim metal was trying to blow off before I got it installed.

This combination of brake metal and sealing foam is designed to seal the Lean To roof to the side of the building. As I said earlier I already installed this before getting the phone for pictures. Sealed it right up.

As you can see in the pictures after sweeping the tree debris away I put down the expanding sealing foam first followed by the brake metal. I allowed a good overlap then pushed the metal up solidly as I secured it with Stitch Screws. A good overlap the the side wall trim was work so no leaks in the corner ever.

I had to finish screwing the metal down along with all the stitch screws in the seams which has the inside muscles in my thighs crying for mercy now. A bit of extra Homemade Hooch and a bottle of Advil will fix that. I have to loosen the roof metal and install the drip edge still, maybe tomorrow.
Looking real good John...
Nice.
Awesome work! I learned something this morning. :ThumbsUp:ThumbsUp
I'm doing much larger panels on my house today and it's kicking my butt. Just polished off some fried Ditch Pickles, Crappie, and my favorite Bell Pepper Rings with Romalude sauce. Picture to follow.
