The present invention provides a pitch pan with just two J-shaped sections. The long leg of one J-shaped section is aligned with the short leg of the other J-shaped section, and vice versa; and the legs of the two J-shaped sections are provided with positioning surfaces which permit the long and short legs of the J-shaped sections to be shifted relative to each other to define adjustable-length walls at opposite sides of a filler-receiving recess. That two-section pitch pan is covered with water-impervious skirting before it is delivered to the job site. All an installer need do is to align the two sections of that pitch pan, secure them to each other and to the roof with fasteners, use a cement or adhesive to seal the skirting of those sections to the roof, use a cement or adhesive to seal an overskirt in position at each of the two sides of the pitch pan where the skirtings of the two sections confront each other, and then fill the filler-receiving recess defined by that pitch pan.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring particularly to FIGS.
1-7, the numeral 20 generally denotes one section of a two-section flash pan which is made in accordance with the principles and teachings of the present invention.
That section has a long side wall 22 which has an inwardly and downwardly folded upper edge 24.
Three small holes 26 are formed in that side wall adjacent the free end of that side wall.
An outwardly bent flange 28 is provided at the bottom of the side wall 22; and that flange has a small hole, not shown, adjacent the left-hand end thereof.
The numeral 30 denotes the end wall of the section 20, and that end wall has an inwardly and downwardly folded upper edge 32.
A flange 34 extends outwardly from the bottom of the end wall 32; and that flange has a small hole, not shown, adjacent each end thereof.
The numeral 36 denotes a short side wall for the section 20; and that short wall has an inwardly and downwardly folded upper edge 38 which defines an elongated recess 40 at the lower face thereof.
A small hole 42 is provided in the wall 36 adjacent the free end of that wall; and that hole is spaced from the bottom of that wall the same distance by which the holes 26 are spaced from the bottom of the wall 22.
A flange 44 projects outwardly from the bottom of the wall 36, and that flange has a hole, not shown, adjacent the left-hand end thereof.
The long side wall 22, the end wall 30, and the short side wall 36 provide a generally J-shaped configuration for the pitch pan section 20.
The numeral 46 denotes a corner plate which has a side that can parallel the outer edge of the flange 28, and which has another side that can parallel the outer edge of the flange 34.
The adjacent edges of those sides are connected by an inclined edge; and a small hole 48 is provided in the plate 46 adjacent that inclined edge.
A fourth side of the plate 46 is parallel to that inclined edge; and fifth and sixth sides of that plate are parallel, respectively, to the first two sides
