How to install ice and water shield on the roof. | Cenvar Roofing 

Awesome video man i enjoyed it more then others 💪

Thanks for the concise, clear presentation.

Good job

Your video is simple and very helpful. I have 1 question before I tackle my roof. Is there a reason why you didn’t installed the drip edge going up the roof before putting on the ice shield.

i've seen the ice/water shield and drip edge done 1st and 2nd respectively and the reverse as well. what makes sense to me is the ice barrier 1st (not below the bottom and the drip edge. to me it provides a better barrier between the decking and the fascia than just the drip edge alone. But as I said, a personal preference.

Ice and water on rakes--laps OVER the deck protection or felt to prevent wind driven rain from getting under deck protection.

That should have been installed before the eave apron and wrapped it around on top the fasica board itself..... then you put apron... then an underlayment such as tar paper, etc. over that on top the apron. When you have a gutter...ice forms below the apron, then gets behind the apron, then goes upwards onto the roof or where ever it can find a way into the wood, etc. Owens Corning may not show that in it's rule book, but that doesn't make them right. They aren't considering the issue I just described... and my way also covers their rulebook because you still have additional underlayment on top the apron. Heck, even Tom Silva covered this on an episode of This Old House a long time ago.

Malarky, who is the biggest seller in Alaska, wraps their ice shield (peel and stick) 1.5 to 2 inches onto the eve. Then, they button nail the wrapped area (plastic) buttons into the face of eve. Then the metal drip edge is nailed. Metal drip edge covers button nails at this stage. In alaska especially, another layer of peel and stick above the metal drip edge on the roof side. Metal drip edge on roof side nailed in a stagger pattern, and nails when penetrating below ice and shield are waterproofed. The rubberized material grips the nail.

Do you install ice and water shield under a metal roof for an unheated garage?

How do you pull the plastic wrapping out, in reality, when on an actual roof that is more than three to eight feet off the ground?

All I have to do now is be 12 feet tall so I can do the roof like you and not worry about falling off.

Put the ice and water on the deck to slightly lower than the edge of the sheet. Then put on drip edge. And if you want lay some more ice and water to sandwich the drip edge. Who wants any sheathing exposed to water?

thanx

The backing on mine wants to peel off in multiple pieces and is really a PITA to peel off on the roof

Makes more sense to me to put the drip edge BETWEEN the ice water shield and the starter strip, not under.

You may want to go back and read Grace manufacturers instructions for installation

Sandwich the metal ,install 12 " strip then metal per manufacturer's specs but always sandwich the metal

We had ice and water shield installed during 50 degree day. Then it rained and water leaked through at OSB seams. Do you think it's an ice and water shield issue? Did it not adhere? Can it re adhere on some warmer days? Or does it have to be replaced?

That was easy now try doing it standing on the actual roof

This is like OSHA showing us how to wear harness on flat ground! Get up on the roof and show them!

iced s modes

once you have ice& water shield on the roof, you will never be able to take it off

Wrong....in case of ice dam and backup caused by eavesstrough.....you need to cover all sheeting with membrane.....then drip.....then synthetic over membrane and drip👍
