That flashing should be 25mm deap into the joint.

Yeah it was barely in as the lead had distorted and there was no way to get it in.

For those that want to be horrified:

Hard to shape it to the tiles, I started and got bored as you can see.

Tbh I think it would have been easier for you to use lead to shape it over the tiles. Looks thin that flashband but I guess its fine as long as it doesn't leak!

Yeah I thought about lead but by the time I'd bought lead, cutters, dragged it up on the roof and broken a few tiles/bones it all seemed a bit daunting. This was a quick fix and I'll just get a pro in at some point.
