THANK YOU AGAIN FOR WATCHING!!!
This is incorrect installation of drip edge. Never screw into facia. Nail into roofing underneath shingles
Do a video showing how to replace or install drip edge when hte roof is already on the house
@@realjwc9714 UA-cam of roofing snake tool. It’s not ideal, but it’s much better than doing it this way. This is absolutely incorrect.
@@realjwc9714 At that point you'd probably be nailing through the shingles and tarring over it. Not a huge deal.
I agree, nail or screw into the roofing
2 problems I see here, Johnny. First, the metal drip edge should not be touching the wood trim or fascia. This will allow water to constantly drip across a wood surface, eventually causing problems. If you’re using 2” x 2” drip edge in the video, then you could switch to 2” x 3” or 2” x 4”. This will give you more metal going under the shingles and allow you to pull it out away from the wood trim.
Second, you should not put nails into the front of the drip edge and into the wood trim. This allows a water opening and exposure of the wood trim. Drip edge nails should always be put under the shingles but be careful not to put them where the back of the trim meets the fascia, or the back of the fascia meets the deck plywood.
Yup. It sucks, but that's how you do it. I've had to unfortunately install drip edge after the fact when the roofers didn't do it.

I stopped watching this terrible example just as I noticed these same two things.
Just order drip edge bent for that 4/12 roof, not hard to find.
You don’t need to install flashing on the side I’ve been doing roofing for nearly 50 years always do it on the perimeter of the whole house
this is a great video in how to NOT install drip edge
Totally wrong installation. As others have said, drip edge shouldn't be touching the fascia or nailed or screwed to it. It should be nailed under the shingles. Also, drip edge installed on the gable ends prevents wind driven rain from getting under the shingles and rotting the deck from the edges back. There are enough videos on YT showing how to install it correctly, and this isn't one of them.
Agreed, and it doesn't even need wind. Water can literally migrate around the shingles and be pushed by more falling rain to creep over to the wood on the sides on the downward slope.
If you want your facia board to ROT- follow this guys advice.
Is this parody? From the struggle to install to installing the wrong size, there's no way this was serious.
WARNING: do NOT install your drip edge like this!
Lol!!!
Agreed
Not enough of a gap between the facia and the drip edge, the water is still going to hit the board.
Comments are just a roast session 😂
Because everything he said is the opposite of physics.
This guy must have learned how to drip edge from my brother-in-law.
I'm a newbie doing my research. It seems that many people advise nailing or screwing from under the shingles, and if you have to use the facia sealing it; either way many people say to leave a gap between the facia and edging as well. I'll have to try to determine the consensus on what the right way is.
I'm not even a roofer this guy is a hack!
This video is the incorrect way. Actually the opposite way you want to do it. Not only will it not work but doing it this way is also a waste of money.
Wow! Thank you. I wish i would have found thsi sooner to prevent costly fascia repair n replace.
For a low slope patio cover, (.5" per foot) what is the best method for adhering fiber reinforce rolled roofing to the drip edge. The mastic I used previously let loose after a number of years, causing rain water to wick back and then under the drip edge. I'm not sure the polyurethane I purchase will adhere any better to the tar shingle roll roofing material.
My understanding is that mastic is water soluble (being organic). Between water and sun, yeah it's not going to last long!
Won’t the water go through the screws you put in drip edge ? Don’t you need to seal around the screws ?
Where did you find a matching color for the lady customers?
I know right..
Call the roofer and have him return and do it right. (good luck with that).
Rotten example picture had this same drip flashing.
From your video, heavy rain come down through the drip edge and flush over the fascia broads and will damage very soon. My house is 37 years old; the drip edge has 0.75" wood spaced from the fascia broads. Now I have to replace all fascia broads some days.
Good example of “How Not To Install Drip Edge”!
I need to install the drip strip and want to install easy on gutter guard at the same time... can you show the best way to do this?
Becky look elsewhere for help. This guy has no clue as to what he is doing. Part of the problem with UA-cam is anyone with a hammer and a screwdriver has become an "expert" at DIY projects. People follow UA-camrs advice and it costs them big time down the road. There are a lot of videos here on UA-cam that give awesome information. This is not one of them! Keep looking here on UA-cam, you will find helpful info for your project.
Isn't code for the flashing to come off like 1/2 inch and not touch the fascia...?
Install a 1x2 and then the drip edge.
I literally just have to give this a thumbs up so I can show from friends tomorrow 🤣🤣🤣 Video proof of a hack
What you are saying is the drip edge flashing can be installed after the roof is finished? Would the gutter then follow the flashing? Thanks, Grant from Ontario, Canada
I agree. I was very disappointed
This is great advice!... but many do not understand that there is such a thing called “shingle molding “ and that’s what he’s installing the flashing onto...I would love to see more videos with houses that have traditional “shingle molding “...and now there is the option of pvc (as shingle molding) so the pvc wouldn’t rot...but yeah, the metal flashing can be installed from the top of the “shingle molding “... and tar around the nail... and if the metal is custom bent to fit the shingle molding the water rolls right off the flashing.
Great videos!....I would really like to see more of this type of fascia and rake boards that have the traditional shingle molding 😎👌👍
No, no and no! And yes, you do use rake edge up the sides of the house
Never face screw or nail gutter flashing, you dont want your flashing touching the fascia board, ther should be a 1/4 inch gap or a pinky gap between the flashing in the fascia
It's been 30 years since I roofed and then I was putting on metal roofs but our roof got damaged here in Florida from hurricane Ian and fellas that help me strip and reshingle our roof when installing the drip edge on the fascia side a lot of the drip edges sticking out and it's not up flush and where the overlap is it's not very flush either so I was wondering if there was a way to fix that because I didn't think you were supposed to put nails screws basically any holes through your drip edge, fascia, into the wood
Not trying to be mean or anything, but nothing said in this video is correct. If you're watching, find another video.
How to rot your roof....with screws
I was just thinking that
I would delete this video but again. I hope you learn from the comments ! Haha
He doesn't show how to cover up the nails with sealant... aren't you not supposed to drill the drip edge into the fascia?
Yeah, try this on a less than one and 12 flat roof
Holy shit. This is worse than no drip edge. What the hell do you think is going to happen with every screw hole?? Leaks and rot!
Wrong drip edge goes on gavels gutter apron on flat surface
Water with or without wind follows the path of least resistance! Drip edge on the rake is essential cause nobody really knows what route water will take! Wind direction is a consideration too!
I was hoping to learn something but when the installer doesn’t even know the proper name of the things he’s working with something ain’t right
Incorrect method. Slow water will still drip onto facia. Should nail under the shingles and both shingles and edge comes out a bit more. Please remove this video to help others.
Excellent video !!! Straight forward and concise !!!
This is incorrect. Drip edge should not be against the fascia. The water will drip off the edge and still catch on the fascia board, rotting it. You should have put a screw through the shingle up top and then bent the drip edge out away from the fascia board.
Oh No!!! 🙈 I can’t watch. Sorry UA-cam folks but don’t do it like this. Not Never!!! …..Johnny bombing it!!!
LOL! Please don't install your drip edge like that...now you have holes in your fascia board...install from top on the nail flange.
Do not install drip edge like this. It’ll cause more damage than not having a drip edge at all.
Poor advise.
1. Drip edge does go on all slopes of the home and especially cornering ends, rain comes down from all directions.
2. You do not want to penetrate the fascia with any kind of screws or nails, it'll just allow another access point for water to seep into over time.
3. Use some type of silicone if you do it this way.
No no no no no
So many errors in this video
That’s wrong!
Wtf? Jajajaj
uhhhh, no no no. Just no. Go to the manufacturer's website and learn how to do it correctly.
And you just ruined the peice of drip edge...plz guys dont follow these instructions..you need to put the nail/screw in the top under the shingles with some bull under and over
Wrong 😑
This guy is trying to spread pain in the world.
This dude knows nothing. It’s crazy. Calls the rake or gable a “peak”. I have never seen anyone ever screw the drip edge to the fascia, because it’s a big no no. How many people have done this because of this knuckle head?
Bruh, take this video down, so many problems...
