roof inspections usually a drive by

I am wondering if on a reroof since its normal to butt the new shingles to a wall where there is step flashing and roof cement the joint.

But at the bottom the flashing gets pulled up and the new layer gets put under.

I never thought about this before.... It seems that the code proper way would be to dig down to the step flashing or open up the siding and install new.

Seems nuts.

I am dealing with a roofer that did not lift the flashing at the base of a wall and just butted the new.

The lawyer says the jobs bad. My first idea is to agree. Then again if its ok up the side wall why not the base.
