Repairs after a storm.
Roof rake edge detail.
The rake of a roof is the outer edge that runs from the eave to the ridge or peak of the roof.
When water runs down the roof it pauses a moment before pouring off.
The rake edge should be installed at the rakes above the underlay of the roof.
One by 2 inch rake boards often cover the exposed top edge of the siding when there also is an eave overhang on the gable end.
When replacing shingles on a roof or constructing a new roof it is important to give proper consideration to flashing details on the drip and rake edges.
It is typically perpendicular to the eave.
Always try to carry membrane felts over or up and over and down to ensure the roof membrane will always drain free and clear of any adjacent system.
When this occurs the water may run back under the edge of the shingles often wetting the roof deck.
