ABSTRACT:
A reglet and flashing assembly for preventing water from penetrating between a roofing membrane at its exposed edge and a skylight curb on which the membrane is provided. The assembly includes a reglet which is permanently anchored to or integrally formed as part of, the skylight sill. The reglet serves as an anchor for a flashing which has an upper edge removably attached to the reglet. The flashing overhangs the roofing membrane and a lower edge of the flashing is biased against the membrane to act as a protective shield to prevent water from entering between the roofing membrane and the skylight curb. The present invention further includes a flexible gasket fitting into the joint between the reglet and the flashing to secure the flashing in proper position. The gasket may be removed to thereby free the flashing. After the flashing has been removed, no part of the reglet and flashing assembly is in contact with the roofing membrane on the skylight sill, and the membrane may then be quickly and easily repaired or replaced.
