[@wayneclu91]

Great video I have the same problem with fascia corners on our home it a good thing not at the top of home but bottom corners I think I have some scrap lumber & only thing I need to buy is primer & sealers + high grade out door house paint. I figure it might be a 2-4 hour job since I have one really bad some and 2 that might only need some minor sealer & repainting.

[@JonnyDIY]

@@wayneclu91 Thank you, happy to help. Yes the corners are always the first to rot. I have some more I need to replace as well. Good luck on the project! 👍

Jonny strikes again

[@tedlahm5740]

The drip edge was painted FLAT to the board? Making it useless?

[@JonnyDIY]

Yeah I didn't install that 😄 was old drip didn't even have the kick out lip on the bottom I don't think

[@JasonJayJJ1]

Wrap it in trim coil aluminum so it doesn't get wet from the bottom roof again.

[@JonnyDIY]

@@JasonJayJJ1 great idea, thanks for sharing 🙌👍

[@coolestpolarbear2341]

Epic

[@JonnyDIY]

Thanks cuz! 🙌👍

[@1armijo]

The facia board resting on the roof probably contributed to rotting it?

[@JonnyDIY]

Possibly, but I doubt. It's not resting on it, the patio awning was build on after that room was built. Just age and sun rot, bad quality wood. The corners of your fascia board are always going to be the first to rot. Mostly from rain and water/dew dripping down to corner and getting into that joint where 2 meet

[@rayaguirre4237]

I agree with this comment. I would have notched the facia board where it comes close to resting on the roof to be sure it does not get any moisture. Why else would it have rot exactly there?

[@rebelandproud1]

Im confused why the cut had to be a 45 degree angle when it couldve been square?

[@JonnyDIY]

@@rebelandproud1 it makes a longer joint so it'll be stronger. Also better for expansion and contraction of the joint 👍

[@MichaelRieck-i8g]

Thanks! Everything is helpful and you had good fixes on the problems that arose. BUT... DON'T USE SILICONE ON ANYTHING BUT BATHROOMS!!!! As a professional painter, that stuff is the bane of my existence when DIYers use it on their trim or siding or windows or anywhere we have to work. Nothing sticks to silicone, not even new silicone. When it's time to repaint, that stuff has to be removed. Plus, clear doesn't mean invisible. It's best to use something like Quad OSI or QuadMax. Or if you want something with water clean-up, Big Stretch. Then paint it. And it's gone. Other than that, great video. Just don't use silicone. Ever.

[@JonnyDIY]

@@MichaelRieck-i8g Awesome thanks for sharing. Yeah I've been buying dynaflex ultra lately but want to try those like big stretch 👍

[@Rich3016]

What about the paintable silicone thats out there now?

[@JohnElHanafi]

Wait what? No $150 permit fees from the township? LOL Great Job Jonny

[@JonnyDIY]

@@JohnElHanafi 😆 nope no permits for me 🤣 thanks! 🙌👍

[@JohnElHanafi]

@@JonnyDIY I know!!! Around here they'll charge you for taking a dump in your backyard lol

[@JonnyDIY]

@@JohnElHanafi 🤣 lol right!? It's getting ridiculous

[@jhart3216]

Don't use silicone caulk. You can't paint silicone. Use a urethane based caulk and paint it.

[@JonnyDIY]

@@jhart3216 Thanks for the tip 🙌Yes I like big stretch or dynaflex when I want to paint over it on exterior 👍

[@kimkhebert]

@@JonnyDIY I also wondered about the silicone, thought you'd sand or paint over it...that didn't bother you I guess, the appearance of it.

[@JonnyDIY]

@@kimkhebert yes it drys clear and can't even see it. I use paintable caulk on more visible areas and places I have to paint

[@BuddyBearCreator]

Ahh. Balancing act.!! So dangerous Don't fall off the roof !

[@JonnyDIY]

😆🤸‍♂️ that was a fun job

[@TheDragonDeacon]

They aren't studs. They're outriggers.

[@JonnyDIY]

@@TheDragonDeacon Thank you, you're right 🙌👍

[@coolestpolarbear2341]

I kinda sliced my foot open but i am ok

[@JonnyDIY]

😳😲 hope you're OK and it heals fast 🙏👍

[@drmarsh4287]

There are about 1000 ways to replace a fascia board....this has to be the most, creative?. 😂

[@JonnyDIY]

Thank you 🙌👍 I thought it'd be easier than replacing that whole long run to the peak. Was probably 15-20ft. I'd have to scarf them together too
