Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Install drip edge at the eaves over the self-adhering or felt underlayment, then at rakes over the eave metal so rake laps shed onto the eave piece. Fasten about every 12 in. with roofing nails and keep the face plumb for a clean runoff line. A 26 gauge 2 x 4 is a solid general-purpose choice; go larger profile or heavier gauge where ice dams or wind-driven rain are concerns.
Drip edge ends and cut edges are sharp; wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection when handling and cutting.
Order TRI-BUILT 10 ft. 26 gauge galvanized 2 x 4 drip edge to finish your eave and rake edges right.
