What is Flashing?

I have a 96 MobileHome.My skylight in my bedroom leaks.It is a metal roof,and has been very well maintained.This skylight has been sealed and tarred many times and it still leaks.I have not heard of flashing though and I am inquiring on what it is?If it will help me?how much does this method cost?

It is difficult without seeing it. I take it your mobile home is like the extra large caravans. Two points caused leaks on my touring caravan. A leak seeping under the lip of the fanlight frame and another under the joint strip, I patched them but they soon leaked again. But after re-bedding both they are now leak free. Alternative get in touch with the makers explain where the leak is an they may advise better.
