Way easier to do it right the first time must say....And this is now code in my area when doing the roof, lots of people overlook and do not the importance of kickout flashing! Good video to BTW
I see this alot being a roof repair tech. Seen alot of damage . This is mandatory on all my jobs. I still see alot of company's that don't install these. Nothing but big problems for the homeowners down the road.
Your video is the only one I've found showing how to add a kick-out on a roof where shingles have already been installed. Thank you! Did you use any glue to stick the shingles back down? Would I need to cut the shingle if the kick-out diverter is not at a right angle? Thank you again.
The roof had just been installed so the adhesive on the back was still very fresh and it was tucked under the J pretty good too. A spot of sealer under the shingle tab would only help. You may need to cut the shingle depending on the kick out you have.
Here is one. Watch "Step flashing, Roof leak repair, Making and properly installing custom kick out flashing" on RU-vid ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-t7SiGWW3z9c.html
Make sure you caulk the seam he cut out with the best caulk. Otherwise you have the same problem just water coming down the siding behind the gutter instead of down the roof behind the gutter.
If you look long enough, you can find just about any info. you need...thanks. I've looked at hundreds of roofs and I've hardly seen any kick out flashing on them...amazing.
Much appreciated video! I imagine this is a less important detail, but isn't the kickout supposed to also go behind the house wrap? Did you cut the house wrap when you were cutting the siding? Thanks again, this looks easier than what I was going to do, which was take the siding off.
I find it takes more time to take off the siding to install the kick out flashing, because some roofer or sider has nailed the step flashing to the wall.
This flashing is not needed, if siding installers would learn how to install a piece of flashing behind the first piece of step flashing, that goes over the lock of the last piece of siding, and drill a larger holes in the bottom of the next piece of siding for drainage this would not be a problem. I fix issues like this all the time in Michigan, and also make sure gap at end of gutter is flashed or sealed, (which gutter installers should learn) the problem with installing a flashing like this in Michigan weather is it causes huge ice damming problems at the wall, especially on sections of roof that don't get any sunlight in the winter. I usually install ice and water shield under windows that go over the siding lock before bottom and side pieces of j-channel are installed which prevents water from going behind siding, this is also a huge problem on windows at roof wall sections. Vynil siding does not hold water out, roofers are expected to know how to keep the water out when installing roofing, you'd think siding installers would have better codes that expect them to do the same, if you've ever tore old siding off this is not hard to figure out and spot where siding leaks have occurred.
I agree with you on the siding install needs to be better. However I, Code Enforcement (in Michigan) and the National Roofing Contractors Association steep slope roofing manual disagree with you opinion on whether theses flashings are needed.
