Happy birthday buddy I hope it was a good one my friend
I bought a house built in 1910, and it literally has birds in the bird box😂😂
I put soffit on a kitchen ceiling they didn’t want rock or any type of wood turned out great was yrs ago and every time I see them they tell me how much they still love it
Interesting! If it works though it works
Man you fo Great work!!! From your roofing to soffit, siding. Clean and done proper. Keep up the great work. Very knowledgeable videos.
You seriously did a great job on that soffit. I wish you had a closer view on how exactly they slide together but otherwise very informative and helpful. Thank you.
Great job man! Like your videos.
Haha, "Awe, this is sketchy." Gotta love construction work!
Bro watching your videos will save me and my family thousands of dollars.
I love it. Get you some
Happy Thanksgiving, and birthday Zach! Yeah, sawblade backwards is definitely the best way I've found as well. Those Diablo blades have treated me well so far.... Thanks for takin' the time to video. We appreciate it.
No problem man! Thanks for the comment
Thanks dude! Literally hanging Fascia tomorrow 🍻

Great video
Thanks for video today. U da man. Have a great turkey day🦃🦃
Thanks! You too!
Happy thanksgiving and Happy Birthday . Welcome back . Great video as usual !
Thank you! You too!
@@NWIVeteranConstruction Thanks brother.
I love doing soffit and fascia! Super easy and quick if you know what you're doing.
I use a lot of the same tricks as you.
Edit.
I don't know if you did it. But I cut little angles on my insert sides of the soffit. Helps it to slide into the previous piece imo
Happy thanksgiving Zach! Would love to see u make a video of a solo roof project with valleys and hips, great job
Will definitely get that going thanks
Rumor has it at 50k subs @veteranconstruction is gonna get a microphone! Great work brother!
lmfao right...i bought one a while back but it would randomly cut out for 3 or 4 seconds. destroying the quality lol you can see in my 7/12 video on that massive roof. 50k subs is actually coming soon. i got a giant give away for it
Happy Thanksgiving ✌👍hope you feel better soon
Thanks! happy thanksgiving
It’s been awhile bro. Skills as always!! Happy thanksgiving bro👍🏻HBD also cuz!!
Thanks man Happy Thanksgiving
The soffit came pre-clampted, its box is the clamp. Using a framing square measure the soffit length on the box and use a circular saw to cut it but has to be turned over because the saws depth won't cut all the way thru in one pass.
Happy thanksgiving 🦃🍽🍁. Thanks for the great video as always.
happy thanksgiving and you are welcome
Happy Thanksgiving bud. Not really sure but I haven't been getting notifications from CZcams when you post.

Hope u feeling better 🤧🙏
I am feeling much better already
Thanks
Happy birthday and Happy thanksgiving, really enjoy your videos. Be blessed!
Thank you! You too!
How do you pull pieces out? My garage is like that but has a covered patio and the ceiling is all soffit. So there are full pieces that run over the sitting area. I want to put some wiring up in there for motion sensors, cameras, whatever.
Do you like vinyl soffit? I was wondering if you can shoot staples in it as good as the aluminum
When are you making more videos?
I always run my siding first so that I can either put my J channel on the freeze or run my soffit on top of the siding J channel with a five eights piece of L bend metal. When you have to but J channel 2 F channel it creates a void
Oh right on. I don't usually use freeze board on vinyl. I just set my j channel right up against my f channel. You'll see in my next video let me know if you like it.
Veteran Construction if that soffit is aluminum we were not allowed to use galvanized or Steel staples with it or on aluminum siding they would allow aluminum nails not staples. On soffit and fascia we had to use painted stainless steel nails and on siding we used aluminum nails. On vinyl material we were allowed to use the nails of our choice mainly galvanized. Many states and cities building inspectors would not allow the use of staples what so ever. I prefer vinyl everything except for the fascia and any other trim we had to brake and cover.
If you level over from fascia to wall shouldn't that be level? Then put bottom of f channel to that line then shouldn't that be level instead of dropping it a half inch below the fascia board?or do you mean the lip on the channel that holds the soffit up is 1/2"?
Nice insightful videos!! But how much do you charge for a garage facia, soffit and siding?? Would love to see a video on pricing or bidding on a job!! Thanks for sharing!! 👍
Depends on the situation. My prices are competitive
I have a smaller home and it could use fascia and soffit on the sides. If I can figure out this F-channel gadget I might be able to put these up then fascia. 🤔
What were you attaching the soffit with on the outside edge? Trim nails? Staples?
The soffit gun takes crown staples. Fascia is secured with color match trim nails. I have links in the description
We bought a mobile home with a California roof over.... I think this is the correct term. The first roof layer on the bottom is opened up above the interior, some fiberglass before the roof tile. This is an older mobile, like 71? The shingles were stapled hap hazardly anywhere, not in proper area and the tiles mostly fell apart, fiberglass nasty, mess everywhere.
There is no soffit vents and too many whirly bird vents, 4 next to each other, so hot air was trapping under the attic, first attic, area. The roof has no, spacing for the underside air flow. It is flush with wall and the siding. We were sold o'hagin vents to install along the bottom of top roof and top area by the ridge. Is this the proper way to fix this? or do we need to jack the roof back up and add area for the ventilation area? Or is the first roof the soffit zone? Basically we have two roofs on top of each other both shingled. I did the tear off and now, I am replacing and blocking warped ply wood or installing osb, but the venting is the thing I can not wrap my head around on this.... This is California so mandatory fire resistant vents are required.
How crucial is it to get the house wrap installed before the soffit and fascia? Is it important to get the house wrap behind the f-channel?
Smedium. You're fine
I loved roofing but moved on to other things. The money was good but it was seasonal so we would be dead broke in the winter time here in Ohio. Any advice for starting a roofing company?
Definitely get insured locally. Not online. They know the area requirements better as far as bonds and liability stuff. Talk to someone about what's best tax wise. I opened llc but filed to be an s Corp shortly after. Basic stuff.
Are you using staples or nails on the soffit? Which size? Thanks for the video!
⅝ crown staples in the soffit gun, color match trim nails for the fascia. I believe I have all that listed in the description.
Howdy and sorry to hear you are not feeling well. I live in AZ and are those fascia panels have any significance in my area or are they simply for looks?
i was just in AZ...you guys don't have fascia like this except on the few houses that have regular shingles etc. most houses have the stucko board and clay tiles and a different type of fascia system
@@NWIVeteranConstruction Thanks for the reply. I painted the eves this summer. Eves like they have in California. (I know I'm spelling eves wrong"
Looks like mobile home skirting to me
Happy thanksgiving zach! I’ve got a roofing question for you I’ve been trying to figure out all week, I might get called an idiot on here but that’s alright! I’m a framer that likes to do little cash jobs on weekends (who doesn’t lol) and I recently shingled a 2/12 roof and I noticed it’s leaking on the 8 to 11 row at a few spots. This is not my first roof, I did a bunch in the summertime but never in November! So I did this roof a few weeks ago and since it’s almost winter time here in New Brunswick (Canada) I want to get that fixed asap. I checked today and there is no nails close to the seems, no seems lining up, and lots of tar has been put on those singles. So my question is what do you think could be the problem? I personally think it’s because the roof hasn’t settled down with the heat but it could be something else. Like I said I did roofs before but this one is giving me a hard time. Let me know what you think and don’t be afraid to suggest something! If I have to redo it I’ll do it for sure but that’s the last thing I want to do… have a good weekend!
i had that same issue. have the shingles sealed yet? i went up with a weed burner and sealed it up. worked fine. also hand sealed the problem area. if you take that approach be careful about how close you get that weed burner.. also, hopefully you iced the entire pitch
Anything 2/12 pitch shall not have shingles installed use rubber roofing water can travel much further on a lower pitch than standard 3 inches that or completely ice and water shield before installing shingles
Anything under 3/12 should be rolled roofing
Only use a framing square if you framed it square lol. Those insulation stops are never level.
Haha definitely some truth there
Where are you working ? State/city ? I have some work I need done.
Alright, what’s up Zach! This is Tashtan, how they hell are ya? ✋✋✋
doing good thanks.
Do you staple vinyl soffit? Seems a lot easier than those little trim nails that are a real pain in the as$
I don't install vinyl soffit. But vinyl needs to expand and contact so I wouldn't staple it right.
@10:10 i see you shimming the end of that soffit into somthing… im feeeling like im missing somthing
Tried the backwards blade trick and it cut worse.
You sure the blade wasn't already backwards and you changed it Frontwards? Lol I've never had an issue. I buy blades all the time and they definitely need to be backwards. Newer blades will cut slightly better than old blades even though you're using them backwards. But same goes for vinyl.. if you try to cut with the blade the wood cutting direction you'll send dangerous shrapnel everywhere and it will hurt. But if you just turn the blade around it cuts clean through vinyl and aluminum. I'm sure of it bud
Lmao with foot on the saw
yea that was slick on the spot lol
Is this NDX soffit?
Ok now I’m seeing this video is alittle old I wish you would make a updated one but still has all the same consistency
It's Menards brand. I don't buy that kind, it was a package the homeowner got. I usually buy from abc for soffit or beacon building products.
All soffit used to be 16 by rollex put up more footage in less pieces but menards is thin aluminum garbage
Camera is not close enough to see clearly.
Why half inch
Because that's the thickness of soffit, so for it to be level you have to do half inch. If you don't, I promise you will see it as ugly or incorrect
Don't put vented soffit in your gable
Ass one small problem is the audio for like $190 get a wireless might that hooked up to your iPhone so we heard better…. But excellent otherwise
I got one but had problems with it. It was like 150$ back then see my 7/12 video. It cuts out
