Good video for beginners. Who ever put the roof on was lost on the drip edge it’s lapped wrong direction. If you will make a 45 degree cut when you made the angle notch let it over lap the straight cut at the corner it will look like it’s cut on 45 degree angle. Makes it look much more professional.

It may be because of the hot and cold climate here. 2. On the underside corners of the fascia, I like to cut a 45 degree. It gives it more of a finished look and you don't have that corner sticking out. Overall, an excellent presentation. Thank!

The problem with installing the bath vent in the soffit, is the moisture is going to go right back thru your vented soffit into your attic space which is a no, no. If you do put the bath vent in the soffit, you need to run unvented soffit for a distance of 6' in both directions before you start back with vented soffit.

Great video. Thank you. I’m installing new soffits and fascia soon. My only suggestion is install the fascia before roofing. Then if you have ice guard you can wrap the ice guard over the top of the fascia. When gutters are installed they will seal against the ice guard. This does a great job sealing the area between the roof and the gutter that is otherwise not protected.

I do it very much the same! So much so that I was almost positive that you learned from my video on how to make a birdbox lmao I'm jk! 2 questions though. I didn't watch all the way through but why the vented soffit up the gable? Everybody typically does solid 1) because there's nothing to vent and 2) because if the neighbors house catches fire significantly less smoke will get in your attic with solid panels. One of my subscribers actually said that it's a code requirement in his area for the smoke reason. And then my last question is why not do the bird box return first, then the eves fascia, then the gable fascia? The reason i do it that way is because you don't have 2 straight cuts on top of each other (the bird box is cut flush and then the gable is also cut flush) the way you did it. I know your way is still water tight but if you switch your first and second order you'd have a flush bird box, then your wrap around, then your gable fascia comes flush to that one. So you actually get to bury the bird box and it looks less bulky and a bit smother. And then one pro tip would be to make sure you 45 both of your 90 degree bottoms. Nicely done though! Nothing hackish here. It's good to see somebody taking pride in their work

Hey Veteran Construction! That’s a lot for watching my video. I have seen some of your videos and I love how you speak your mind and the no BS approach.

I do that in that order. In this video I already started the facia coming from the other end. I have another fascia video that demonstrates how I usually start that way.

Additionally, 5/8" soffit screws are your friend. No hammer bruising with a miss and when you're 40 feet in the air on a stage or man lift and have to lean just a little bit, a small drill and screws are essential, inconspicuous and a neater job in my opinion than nails. Nails work their way out eventually NOT screws.

Good tip! I actually have never had a piece of facia come off. But I can see how screws could be better. Thanks for the comment!

This is a EXACTLY what I'll need in about wk or so... This rehab house has many missing soffit & fascia cover or whatever --- and most of the gutters are either missing or detached... So this will be a project that'll get added for when I get ready to work on my roof. 🤦🏻♀️ (I'm a single mom of 2 with very very limited $ so it was either DIY rehab home or live out of my tiny subaru 😂😂) This was SUPER helpful. #ThankYou ❤ You've certainly earned my sub.. 💯

Before I attempt any install I check this guys videos. Doors, windows, and siding came out great. Thank you for the content. Btw.. scoring the facia before cutting was my favorite technique😅

This was super helpful. I’m getting ready to re-do some of the soffit and fascia on my house. Never done it before so I’m trying to research as much as I can before I do it.

Great instruction. It takes good effort to take your own video and then edit. I prefer to work alone too for the most part. It's just easier to concentrate and focus. Thanks for the video.

Wow... I'm so glad I found you by accident... Great info for a DIY like me... Bought a fixer and literally every onion layer I have peeled back has been done wrong/ failed... I'm constantly having new projects yearly... I do have to do all these repairs soon... 🐝, Bird, wind and you name it showing me how messed up the outside was done also... We are in a different time now... Now is the time for the DIY person... People are lazy, half a**, no morals ect... But they think they have a right to charge what a million $ corporate that warrants their work and are real craftsmanship... Yet they not only have poor quality but ruin your house... It's a mess out here in Knoxville... I get a kick out of my neighbors happy to see a ole lady out here doing it herself...❤️ Thank you.. Thank you for the great videos...
