I am a first-time-Soffitt installer (DIY). Your instructions were clear and more helpful than other videos I viewed. Next I start vinyl siding. I hope to learn from you again.
So simple and straight to it. I love how clean and professional. U do not make people feel intimidated by your teaching method! Loveit👍🏽💪🏾
Thanks for the demo. I have been trying to find a contractor to fix mysoffits, squirrels have ripped them out but no one wants to do small jobs. I,m pretty good at doing repairs myself For a retired woman and now I’m going to do it.
So true. It’s challenging to find anyone to do small jobs right now
How did it go?? Give any additional advice or tips? I’m learning to be kinda handy myself
I definitely would do such work.. but kuddos for doing it yourself.
That was a simple, but complete explanation. Exactly what I was looking for.
Really clear, concise, and straightforward video. Thanks for the help and for your service!
As a new property adjuster, now I know! Thank you for this video. 😊
Wow, that was a lot more simple than I thought it would be. Thank you
This is the best soffit and fasica video I've seen anywhere, been looking all day
Just what I was looking for.thanks. Enjoy your weekend.
THANK YOU! finally a video of actually installing them. So many others had that title yet none actually showed it well. Yours showed it perfectly 👌
Thank you my friend. I'm truly here for you guys! Just another guy trying to relay information to the public!
This is a great video! I’ve had to rebuild things a handyman did wrong- or finish jobs because the next guy doesn’t show up. From now on I’ll just UA-cam and do it all myself! Thank you for this one- birds are pulling out insulation or nesting inside because my guy just can’t seem to get back for 2 weeks to put it up. I’ll do it myself now that I see how!!
Good real world demo. Thanks for taking the time!
Great video, I never knew replacing fascia board could be so easy.
Thanks for the demo. I've installed mine and it looks great. Thanks.
" Perfect "just what I was looking for.
Thank you for this easy instructions. It relieved me because I never know how to do it before. Thanks again.
Great video keep up the good work. The whole barn build is giving me a heads up I’m residing my home.
Thank you for such a good video. This really helps with what I'm getting ready to do. Thank you.
This is exactly what I was looking for. I recently bought my first house and it doesn’t have any soffit vents on it. Only plywood at around 15 degree angle with 4 vents on each side, front and back. This video made it not seem so hard for someone who has no idea on any sort of remodeling. Thank you!
this is not a great reference guide from someone who does this for a living
@alexwyman741 I'm replacing mine, can you point me in a direction of a video of someone who does it well in your opinion?
Straight to the point, awesome. Thank you
Thanks. My house had been constructed and they used staples to attach the soffits. Some have pulled loose. Had someone come out and they wanted $750 to fix a few droopy J channels. Your video motivated me to do it myself.
Very good. I like keeping it simple this is exactly what I needed to see. Now I can do it on my own. Thank you. 👍
Agreed, this guy makes it look easy and fun actually.
Great job!
Clear, concise and well done 👍
Appreciate your hard work.
Frank Maffei Thanks Frank. Appreciate the kind words.
Best video I've found by far!
Thank you so much ! Very informal
Exactly what I was looking for to make my soffits look uniform! Thanks for walking me through this! The only tricky part I think I'll have is where I have to go high on the ladder! 🙂
Great vid...from start to finish 👍

Wow imagine seeing pastor Joe in the comments of a soffit video. Heck ye.
excellent video, Thanks!!

Nelson Lueiza Thank you my friend. We’ve been away for awhile trying to settle into new positions at work. We plan on trying to get a video out this week. Thanks for the support. Take care, and god bless!
Perfect. Thanks for the info
Great video. Thanks
Exactly. What do I need to do on an old home, I just purchased. Very clean simple example. Thanks.
Thanks! Really helped
Great video thanks.
i have done it many times ...super easy dear...great video
I have been in a discussion about soffit application and you mentioned leaving a little looseness in the flange connection for expansion contraction . This helps me to make my point on why you should not run nails or screws thru the material anywhere other than the slotted holes provided. Although sometimes it becomes necessary to use a trim nail here and there. The discussion is primarily about starting the soffit from top center of a rake and working down in both directions . Bending the top piece in the center and thus going backwards in one direction. I think its wrong for a few reasons.
Thanks things changed alot since I been in construction and watching this helped me get updated on new material out there.
Lee L Thanks my friend. “My way” may not be the gospel, or so to speak, but it’s always worked for me and I’ve never been called back to a job. Thanks again my friend and I hope to see you in future videos
What do I ask for when I go to Lowe’s? Soffits?
What kind of saw was that to cut the soffits?
Thank you for the video. It helped me see exactly how to do it. I would have just installed the whole length as one piece going sideways. But now i know. Lol
thank u ..beautiful video.. now i know i can do this
the intro tho. LIT!
Thank You, Blessings!
Had a bit of hurricane damage here in Florida...12 ft section of fascia was ripped off winds...thank you for the instruction (I subscribed immediately)!!
I have same hurricane damage in SWFL. looks like step one is to remove the existing fascia. I just have random mangled soffits do I need to take a whole section out and start over?
P.S. my soffits aren't screwed in or they probably wouldn't have blown out
Great video. To the point, grey footage. Great hints. Thanks.... doing a shed
Glad it was helpful my friend!
Thanks so much, it's such a great help I just need to replace mine.
Thank you, I’m going to give it a try. Wish me luck!
How did it go.
Thanks for the video
Thanks, I had done this in 1999 but couldn't remember how. Thanks a lot
Love the intro music too btw
Thank you. Explained very well. Nice a simple and to the point. I am going to do some soffit work with confidence. Please do a video on how to take soffits down without causing damage. Thank you and God bless you also.
Great video
This entire time I thought soffit was one long piece, this clears up many things LOL
Thank you!
Thanks!
Hey, Good job Guy, Just what I was looking for.
Why didn't you show the most difficult part of the soffit job. The last far right side piece? How does it terminate at the end?
I'm installing PoE cameras through my soffit. I wanted to see how this was constructed in case I botched it beyond repair. Awesome video!!
Me too.
It doesn't seem to hard to do it well he makes it look easy I'll paint my house this week then tray to see if I can do that. Very good video sir
very nice
Nice video. Thanks. So I have a hip roof. How does the vertical trim piece finish out on the corners?
Thank you so much for a detailed video. I am not looking to do that. I have no skill in this. I had a contractor come out to diagnose why attic is so hot and he says "6 sections of perforated soffit panels should be cut down, cut openings in wood soffits to clear away insulation blocking air flow and reinstall removed panels". This all sounds greek and latin to me :-) and he is quoting $960, Is this at least in the ballpark. I am not trying to underestimate skills here but don't want to pay double for something that's simple. Your video helped to understand why we need soffit panels (airflow). Ours is a 25+ year old house and generally in a great condition (to provide context), Wondering whether this is normal or unusual in a old house that they did not vent the attic properly.
Thank you
Thank You Brother!
Joe Harm Anytime my friend.
I notice you say you cut the soffit short to allow for expansion and contraction which I totally agree is a good idea. Then I noticed you put screws in the valley of your soffit material which doesn't have a slotted hole and you put the screw in tight so that the soffit can't move, the same with the screw you put in the manufactured edge which does have a sotted hole. So my question is should it not be fastened using the slotted hole and maybe make another hole in the valley to allow it to expand and contract??
You are correct
Those is how you do a video. Give the relevant info and speed up the rest. Thanks, I think I need to use this method instead of what I was going to do. Much easier!
Thanks..looks fairly easy......except when you get to corners?
Would have been nice to show starting the install with the first piece. Thanks for posting.
Excellent Video - What type of screws do you recommend?
More interest.... the sun glasses😂
Thanks for the video! This is a huge help. One question, you didn't use a soffit panel. isn't this vulnerable to birds and other small animals? I'm trying to figure out how to attach the soffit panel but if I can do without then it would be a whole lot easier.
Great, just what I had in mind. It replaces using wood.
Very useful video; thanks. Too bad your neighbor was practicing drums the whole time though.
I am putting soffit and siding on a large workshed to match my home. The Hight is 13.5 feet. I have a problem with boring bees and wasps that I can't reach, so I will probably go with a solid soffit to keep them out.. But can i put up the soffit first before putting on my siding? Thanks! I enjoyed your video.
Nice jb
What kind of blade do I need to use, I tried to use my chopsaw and it seemed to have a blade with quite a few teeth but it chipped up the ends of the siding and didn’t make a great cut? Any suggestion on blades would be appreciated? Thanks
The sides of my house were done in soffit; it's not meant to shingle water like siding does. I have Masonite soffits and the support at the top of the wall is all termite eaten so I'm looking at replacing all of it. I like the vented. I'm going to put new siding on because I need to replace the Masonite lap board on the walls with OSB.
This is exactly what we were looking for. Thanks! Do you recommend a particular blade for sawing through soffit with a miter saw?
More teeth the better
I seen the facia nailed on the front end where the gutters will overlay on top of. Would this be visually more better since it’s hidden or you recommend from bottom like that
Do you have a video showing how to finish the end piece?? From what I see it will be the edge with the slots showing. What covers that?
Thank you, well explained. What type saw are you using to cut soffit?
I use my miter saw to cut them with a 60 tooth blade! Thanks for the comment my friend! Take care and god bless!
Good production on building the soffit with fascia and the music wasn't too loud either
Thanks Dan! Take care in this troubling time.
You measure from the house towards you. But how long do you cut the sofit the direction you going to the right?
