A fascia with seal for drip protection preferably includes a fascia and a strip of compressible tape. The fascia includes an anchor bar and a cover. The cover snaps unto the anchor bar. The anchor bar includes a vertical portion, a roof flange, an upper cover clip and a lower cover clip. The strip of compressible tape is applied to an inside surface of the vertical portion, below a bottom of the roof flange. The top peripheral edge of a building is not perfectly flat. However, the flexibility of the anchor bar and the compressibility of the strip of compressible tape conforms to any dips in the roof membrane, which over lays the top peripheral edge of the building. A plurality of fasteners are used to secure the anchor bar to the top peripheral edge of the building to ensure that there is not a leak path for any water.

A multi-part roofing underlayment having independent release liners, where the underlayment comprises separable portions attached adjacent top edges of the separable portions, creating an interface therebetween into which roofing components may be inserted, easing installation and better mitigating wind-driven rain and ice dam related roof failures. Embodiments provide the multi-part roofing underlayment in sheet and roll forms and with various configurations of release liners, adhesive layers, granular layers, selvedge edges, and plastic layers.

A drip edge having a flange configured to rest against a roof surface following installation on a perimeter of the roof surface and a flap hingedly extending from a terminal edge of the flange configured to be positioned a predefined distance towards the center of the roof surface, as measured from an edge of the roof surface on which the flange is configured to be mounted, following installation of the flange on the roof surface, wherein the flap and flange, in combination, form a cavity configured to retain a shingle therein, thereby improving the strength with which the starter shingle is secured to the roof surface against wind uplift while improving its resilience to moisture intrusion and easing installation while also rendering shingle alignment more consistent.

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.

A PVC-based cover strip designed to bond to non-PVC materials as well as PVC materials includes a PVC layer coated with a barrier effective to prevent migration of plasticizers from the PVC layer. The barrier layer, in turn, is coated with a primer and subsequently a pressure-sensitive adhesive. The barrier layer is generally a polar polymer, such as acrylonitrile rubber which resists migration of phthalate plasticizers. The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is a pressure-sensitive adhesive suitable for use in roofing applications.

A ventilation screed with an upper attachment flange having a top portion and a bottom portion and at least one opening in the top portion; a drip edge protruding from the bottom portion and a return leg that protrudes back from the drip edge and extends beyond the bottom portion; a drainage cavity protrusion protruding from the bottom portion above the drip edge, wherein the drainage cavity protrusion has an L-shaped drainage trough portion having at least one drainage opening in a bottom portion and a substantially vertical portion with a top end and a bottom end in communication with the bottom portion, an upper ground portion in communication with the top end of the substantially vertical portion of the L-shaped drainage trough portion extending outward from the substantially vertical portion and a drainage cavity shroud extending substantially downward from the upper ground portion.

An improved gutter flashing is disclosed. The gutter flashing can be installed on a preexisting fascia board of a building, and is compatible with the installation gutter hangers, leaf protection devices, and pre-existing drip edges or gutter flashing. The gutter flashing can be installed without placing additional holes for screws, nails or other securing devices other than the attaching devices that attach the gutter to the fascia board. The gutter flashing comprises a lower spacer portion, a substantially vertical arm with a substantially u-shaped spacing portion to receive the lower angled leg of the preexisting drip edge. Diverter arm rests on top of the roof portion of the preexisting drip edge and extends into approximately the midline of the gutter to divert water away from the structure and into the gutter.
