TinnerFlow™3rd YearRoof / EquipmentRED · Stop / Verify
Water behind curb flashing is a stop-and-fix condition. Verify the roofing/detail overlap, counter-flashing, sealant, and who owns the repair before the leak damages the building.
If water is migrating under or behind counter-flashing, the issue is bigger than a bead of caulk. The curb, roofing membrane, flashing overlap, fasteners, and unit base all work together to shed water.
The recovery is to document the leak path, protect the opening, coordinate with roofing/GC, and install or revise flashing per the approved roof curb detail. Do not just smear sealant over the outside and call it fixed if water is getting behind the system.
Use this as training guidance. The foreman, approved drawings, project specs, manufacturer installation instructions, employer safety policy, and AHJ/code requirements always control the final answer.
