Soft lead flashing is simple to install, durable, and anyone can do it. The site listed above tells you how to install every type of flashing there is.
I use this product often, and can swear to its ease and durability.
Soft lead flashing is so malleable, simple to weather proof and install, that anyone who tells you differently ought to eat it and suffer the consequences. Simply fold the flashing into the desired shape you want, overlap and secure it to the structure (using a silicone adhesive and sealer), and silicone seal all edges just for an additional piece of mind.
Write to myself, should you have any questions. I Guarantee this is right.
