A kick out flashing includes a base for placement adjacent a roof, a sidewall for placement adjacent a wall by the roof, a first kick out wall angled away from the sidewall, an intermediate wall joined with the first kick out wall, distal from and optionally parallel to the sidewall, and a second kick out wall angled away from the intermediate wall, the second kick out wall distal from the sidewall and downstream from the first kick out wall. The sidewall, intermediate wall and a bottom wall can form a channel that receives a J channel or other wall covering. The first kick out wall can prevent water from traveling directly under the bottom wall and/or the channel, diverting it away from the sidewall. The second kick out wall can further divert water away from the channel and/or sidewall.

A roof system includes a roof deck including a rake edge, an underlayment, a plurality of asphalt shingles, and a one-piece metal apparatus. The one-piece metal apparatus includes a stem, an upper arm, and a lower arm that form an F-shape. The upper arm and lower arm of the one-piece metal apparatus are above the underlayment, and the stem is situated outside and adjacent to the rake edge of the roof deck. The stem, the upper arm, and the lower arm form a three-sided space to accept a thickness of the overlapping rows of the plurality of asphalt shingles. The end of the overlapping rows of the plurality of asphalt shingles are situated within the space formed by the stem, the upper arm, and the lower arm of the one-piece metal apparatus.

A system for securing one or more heating cables to a roof and having one or more apparatuses, each apparatus including a metal base panel and a continuous metal C-shaped channel integrally-formed with the base panel. The channel includes a pair of opposing continuous channel walls creating and surrounding a continuous cavity having a cross-sectional cavity shape substantially identical for at least a majority thereof to the cross-sectional shape of the cable. The channel walls are resiliently flexible to enable receipt of a continuous length of the heating cable within the cavity such that the heating cable is in snug continuous contact with the channel to enhance heat conductance from the heating cable to the base panel.

In an embodiment, a method includes applying a liquid plural component polymer to a sloped roof to form a protective surface that inhibits moisture seepage to the roof sheathing. In some embodiments, the plural component polymer may be a polyurea compound having a hardening time that is less than approximately 10 minutes. In some embodiments, one or more of the components may be aerated prior to application to the roof substrate. In some embodiments, one or more polystyrene panels may be affixed to the sloped roof prior to application of the liquid plural component polymer. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

A customizable roof drip edge system includes an inner footing, an outer section, and a tail integrally formed with the inner footing and the outer section. The tail is nailable to a roof substrate. The outer section includes a bridging member connecting the tail to an outer footing. The bridging member and the outer footing are configured for directing the flow of water off of a roof. The inner footing is spaced from the outer footing by a suitable distance and configured to be placed against an eave as a positioning aid such that the drip edge can easily and reliably be installed with sufficient spacing for the installation of a fascia board after installation of the drip edge. The drip edge may be bendable to user-selectable angles between the tail and the inner footing and outer section to accommodate a range of roof pitches.

A profiled element for terraces and balconies includes a substantially flat wing for anchoring the profiled element to the floor, a front portion for protecting an outer edge of a floor paving and protruding outward with respect thereto, and a drip lip which is constituted by a contoured element that extends downward from the wing, in a region to be arranged at an edge of a terrace. The drip lip includes at a lower end, at least one first protrusion and at least one second protrusion, the second protrusion being disposed lower than the first protrusion, and both protruding outward with respect to the front portion.

This is a uniquely designed water diverter device for gutters at wall abutments. The device secures the gutter and provides a seal for preventing water to leak and ooze behind the siding. Thus it prevents rainwater from seeping behind siding or under roofing material, yet at the same time does not allow the buildup of debris which can create a back-up of water or allow the formation of ice dams to exacerbate a back-up of water. The diverter device includes a base structure with a top, bottom, closed end, open end, and a raised rim section extending from a plate with a gutter side and wall side; a cover section; a manner to hold the cover to rim of base; and an adhesive, seal, and fasteners to hold wall face plate of base structure to the face of a wall abutment.

A combination drip edge, rake flashing, gutter with nail flange that is useful for water harvesting and securing of shingles in adverse weather conditions.

A method and system for aligning shingles on a roof using alignment marks placed directly on drip edges, limiting the need for stand-alone measurement devices.
