You are the only guy to have finally formed a kickout flashing correctly. 😂 I watch these others try to make them and they all fall flat on their face. I was making those just like you 40 years ago and it doesn't take a lot of skill ,just a little vision.
Good job Chris, I often times find missing or unconventional diverter kick out flashing with related active moisture present within the wall cavity, and all of this can be prevented by installing a kick out as you demonstrated. I would prefer to see a manufactured kick out instead of fabricating one from a piece of step in the field but hey I get it. Honestly, at this point I am happy just to see some type of kick out flashing present. Though these kick out flashings are not aesthetically pleasing to homeowners and at times they want to cut them down shorter than 4-6" or take them out all together, they are essential in preventing water damage!
We have changed to using black aluminum on most jobs to make them Blend in better. We have also come across entire walls that have been destroyed because of missing kick out flashings.
This is an excellent video - thank you for producing and posting it. Do you have any ideas for gable ends where extended rafter tails prevent the trough from running to/past the edge of the roof? Can such a kick out flashing as the one you demonstrated be modified for such an installation?
Just had my roof replaced and have a new leak where an addition meets the 2nd flooor. Its going to be a process - the company has a project manager that hired a subcontractor that hired a roofing team. The PM sent the subcontractor out yday and he put some caulk sealing the 'problem.' I didn't see any water inside but there is a drip line on the vinyl siding underneath the overhang on the addition from ydays rain.
Ok…. Great. Now make the siding look good around that. 🙄 Honestly, the best solution I’ve seen and now use myself, is a vinyl block that is installed with the the siding. Easy to install and seal, and looks WAY better as a finished product. The step flashing method works fine for wood siding, but not vinyl or similar products.
@@schoenroofing I can't tell you how many missing or improperly installed kick out Flashings I've fixed over the past 25 years. It's probably well over 100.
Great video, im preparing to re roof my Geodome house and have a question on how I should design my flashing where there is a lot going on. May I send you a photo and ask your option.would greatly appreciate it. @schoenroofing

Yes, this is the correct method. Just saw video from another roofing company, he folded over and nail the flashing down on the roof deck.
Glad you liked the detail. No pin holes!
Great quality content and right to the good stuff. Thank you!
Much appreciated!
Just what I needed this morning! I’m off to build one now!! Thank ya!!
Lol. Go get it!
Thanks for the awesome video! Best kick out ever.
Couldn't agree more!
That's a great way of keeping water away from the wall by diverting it....
Thanks for the comment Barry! Glad you liked the video.

Oh yea. Use this flashing anytime you need to direct water towards a trough.
Please consider showing how you would run vinyl j-channel around this.
That's for the siding guy to figure out 😂
Had my roof replaced 5 times and every contractor forgot to install them even when noted in the contract. Good for you, Missouri roofers are lazy af.
Hi Paul! It’s a very common mistake that untrained installers make. Thanks for the comment.

Appreciate the link to a good video. Very common for installers to miss this step.
