Please explain how to install aluminum fascia

hi this video is brought to you by trim bender calm and in this video we're going to explain how to install fascia on a hip and a gable roof this side here is basically the hip rough that's just showing the fascia meeting up straight at a ninety degree angle and the opposite side here is the gable or it's coming down at roughly a 30-degree angle meeting up with the front fascia the first thing we're going to start off with is put in a piece of flashing across the front this is a 2x3 flashing we offer it up to a three by three so if you're installing gutters you know you got some extra room with three inches hanging down so first thing you want to do is cut it to length just make it even on one side and mark it on the other side and you can just cut this section off now I just check to make sure that the length is correct now I'm going to put a couple nails in it if you have shingles already on the house too you slide it up underneath the shingles and it basically is going to hold it in place and if you can also just you know take a couple nails every few feet okay now that the flashing is installed we're going to go ahead and start on the gable side we're going to do both sides first and then put the front piece on so we can cover the corners now the gable piece is a little trickier what you want to do is line it up so that the bottom edge the bottom lip comes up flush with the front then we're going to notchback about three-quarters of an inch on the inside and just put a notch and then you can bend a little flap up met basically when you put the piece back up it's going to be flat against the front fascia now in this piece what you want to do is notch off the little corner by notching it out it's going to allow you to bend a little tab up to cover the little gap on the side it's kind of tricky you might want to try practice and with the piece first see it's got that little tab that I bend up and then bend the piece back up that a first Bend so it kind of looks like so now I'm going to put the piece in there and I'm going to fold over that angle part once you get a rough kind of Bend on and take it off and then kind of give them the best ninety degrees as you can it doesn't have to be perfect because the front fascia is actually going to cover this whole section so and now remember when also doing gable fascia you want to start from the bottom and work your way up so that each piece overlaps and when water runs it runs over the next piece on its way down and you probably want to nail it every 36 inches now that that's done we're going to move on over to the hip rough area this is basically just two pieces of fascia meeting up at a corner sorry for the bad lighting but you can kind of see what you basically do is just take an inch and notch it off at the bottom section completely basically so your piece is going to look like that then put it back up there and line up the bottom edge with edge of the fascia so you can bend that tab over like that like again get the best ninety degree that you can it should look like so and slide the piece underneath the flashing and we're just going to put one nail and don't nail the corners yet because actually when the front pieces go on that's when you're going to nail the corners okay that's the side piece on now we're going to go ahead and do the front piece of the fascia basically what you can do is slide it up on it you don't actually have to go under the flashing to get a measurement but you slide it tight on one edge like so go over to the other edge and Mark right on the edge then you can look underneath too and also see where it's going to end and take the piece back off and now we're going to completely cut off that end you can mark it with a straight edge if you want I'm pretty used to cutting it so I can cut a pretty straight line now slide the piece back up underneath the flashing make sure each line is lined up equal and should pretty much look like that now I'm going to nail the corners this is pretty much going to secure both pieces together and should give it a pretty clean look you can just you can tap the edges down a little bit make it a little smoother looking then I'll go ahead and put one in the middle here like I said you probably wanna go every 36 inches if you start going closer you'll get a ripple effect and not never over nail it either just snug it up then I'll put one more nail in the corner there you have it that's how to install fascia on a hip and gable roof tucked underneath flashing thanks for viewing a video and if you have any other questions or need any more trim visit us at trim bender comm thanks
