ABSTRACT:
A batten extender supports and engages roofing tiles that extend over the flashing located at intersections of adjacent roof sections and the intersections of roof sections and walls to keep the tiles aligned and flat without obstructing the flow of water along the flashing or contacting the crimped edge of the flashing and causing it to be flattened. The batten extender includes a plate having approximately the same width as the batten it extends and a length that is greater than the width of the flashing. A support element of the plate has legs that hold it above the flashing without obstructing the flashing and an attachment element of the plate overlies the extremity of the batten. Side flaps extend from the sides of the attachment element and contact the sides of the battens to align the plate with the battens. The attachment element is affixed to the batten by driving nails through it and into the batten.
