The tape should extend at least 10 inches past the fascia. • On the roof, install a row of roofing membrane along the eave, • folding over the bottom two inches • onto the fascia. • Install drip edge metal along the eave and then run a strip of peel and stick membrane up the roof/wall corner. • Fold the membrane up the wall about 8 inches. • Install roofing felt or synthetic roofing underlayment over roof, running it up the wall at least as high as the step flashing will be • A starter strip of roofing is installed along the bottom of the roof and • Kickout flashing is installed in place of the bottom piece of step flashing. • The first course of shingles is installed and so is the step flashing, • which should overlap the previous piece by about two inches, • and its top should align with the top of the shingle. • Install another strip of peel and stick membrane over the top of the step flashing, cutting a slit for the kickout flashing. Leave a 2 inch gap between the membrane and the roofing. • Below the roof, Install house wrap, integrating the top with the strip of peel and stick tape already in place. • Add another course of house wrap, overlapping the lower course and making a slit for the kickout flashing. • Keep the house wrap about 2 inches off the roofing, too. • Install siding as normal, and keep the bottom a couple of inches above the roofing—regardless of siding type. • Install a gutter behind the drip edge to collect the water and , and you can channel all of the water off of the roof, • and into the downspout. • This detail comes from the Best practice Guide of Hammer Hand, a general contractor that specializes in high performance building with offices in Portland and Seattle. www.hammerandhand.com • • Twitter: @TradeCraftsman | twitter.com/tradecraftsman • Pinterest: @ProTradeCraft | pinterest.com/ProTradeCraft/ • Facebook: / protradecraft • Subscribe to Pro Trade Craft's YouTube channel for regular updates • • Fork and Spoon by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...) • Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-... • Artist: http://incompetech.com/
