9 Steps to Installing a Rigid Head Flash On a Window
Step 1:
If the window you are installing has a flexible drip edge, remove it with a utility knife.

Apply sealant on the wall, the top of the window frame and at each ends of the rigid head flashing (RHF).
Step 3:
Fasten the RHF to the wall.
Step 4:
Install self-adhering window flashing tape over the nailing fins. Roll at least ¼-in. of the tape onto the side of the window frames.
Step 5:
Make notches in the flashing tape at the RHF and fold the flaps over onto the top of the RHF.
Step 6:
Install self-adhering window flashing tape over the top of the RHF. Roll at least ¼-in. of the tape onto the horizontal section of the RHF.
Step 7:
Make notches in the flashing tape at the ends of the RHF and fold the flaps down over onto the sides of the window.
Step 8:
Add sealant to the exposed ends of the RHF.
Step 9:
Tool the sealant.
