A fascia board installation accessory includes a plurality of planar segments configured to form a substantially U-shaped configuration and is suitably sized and shaped to fit about a bottom edge of the existing fascia board, and an anchor segment extending outwardly away from the U-shaped configuration and directly abutted against one of an existing roof rafter and an existing roof lookout. The anchor segment is statically and integrally connected to the U-shaped configuration. The U-shaped configuration has a first centrally registered longitudinal axis. The anchor segment has a second centrally registered longitudinal axis oriented non-parallel to the first centrally registered longitudinal axis. The anchor segment has a plurality of apertures juxtaposed side-by-side and centrally aligned along the second centrally registered longitudinal axis.

The method includes dispersing copper or other material ions through the water receiving area of a gutter guard for the prevention of moss or mold growth. The method includes the utilization of thread(s) sewn into or embroidered onto or otherwised affixed to or immediately preceding the water receiving areas of a gutter guard, such thread(s) being comprised of moss killing materials. The thread(s) comprise only a portion of the water receiving area, so if corrosive elements form and wash over the water receiving area, they will be in sufficient amounts to kill moss but not in so great an amount as to clog any water receiving apertures. The method includes the utilization of staples or other objects comprised of copper or other moss killing materials fastened to or adhered or welded to the body or water receiving areas of a gutter guard or areas immediately preceding such.

A covering having insulated panels is meant to prevent or slow the spread of fire. Each panel has a top cover; a fire-prevention layer having a fire-retardant material, a fire-resistant material, or a combination of both; and an insulation layer. The fire-prevention layer is located, at least partially, between the top cover and the insulation layer. When there are two or more insulated panels, they interlock at a joint and form a plane.

A perforated eave trim and system for roofs is described. New shingles are typically installed on wooden strapping attached to an old or existing roof. The cavity between the old roof and the shingles is prone to build up of moisture if the cavity is inadequately ventilated. Moisture build up can lead to mold, ice buildup and damage to the roof and strapping. The perforated eave trim, and embodiments thereof disclosed herein, in conjunction with conventional roof vents provides an improved system for venting roofs.

Fascia hanging tools of the present disclosure are configured to assist an installer when hanging a fascia board, i.e., attaching the fascia board to a rafter tail of a building's roof framing. The fascia hanging tool is configured to be temporarily secured to a portion of a building's roof framing and to independently hold and support a fascia board proximate the portion of the building's roof framing. By holding the fascia board for the installer, fascia hanging tools of the present disclosure are configured to facilitate hanging of fascia boards by a single person, i.e., without the assistance of a second person, making the process safer and more cost effective. Fascia hanging tools of the present disclosure may be adjustable to accommodate different sizes of fascia boards and different rafter pitches of the building's roof framing.

Improved cornice systems and methods for installing cornice systems. The system includes hangers, wall receiver trim, and a unitary fascia and soffit component. The improved cornice systems allow for much quicker and easier installation, and provide for additional advantages as well.

A flashing laminate includes a non-reinforced thermoplastic sheet having a bottom surface, a first longitudinal edge, and a second longitudinal edge. The flashing laminate also includes an adhesive layer on a longitudinally extending portion of the bottom surface adjacent to one of the longitudinal edges. In one or more embodiments, the laminate also includes a release liner positioned over the adhesive tape.
