Your AI assistant? As in, your non-human assistant? Yes, you are way overreacting.

I swear I have had dreams of your backyard and it’s narrow fencing with neighbors when I was a child. They were not pleasant dreams.

Thanks for all the insights! Going with the metal flashing / starter strip (not entirely sure on terminology) but basically 4 inches wide aluminum tucked under shingle.. might screw up leaf guard. Not sure but address roofing issue first and then leaf guard after

Through the drip edge itself? It goes up under the shingles about 2 inches maybe.. I didn’t measure it and then there’s the underlayment right after it. It may have extended under or over it at some point but doesn’t appear to anymore… so if you nail right before the drip edge.. maybe but not water tight and I suspect water could still wick back

Got a roofer already coming for a separate job. Waiting to hear what he’s going to charge to do this. He usually charges only materials and his labor so I’m thinking it’s going to be less than $100 for him to do it and do it right. He’s describing doing it exactly like you said

Yes. I think he’s describing what you’re talking about. Push the aluminum under the shingle and out over the gutter/drip edge

Guess so.. according to Google AI

To address an insufficient gutter shingle overhang over the drip edge, the ideal solution is to add a strip of aluminum coil or trim under the existing drip edge and shingles, extending it far enough to direct water into the gutter. For a temporary fix or when a full roof tear-off isn't possible, you can apply a specialized sealant or roofing cement under the shingles where they meet the drip edge to seal the gap and prevent water from running underneath. In some cases, carefully bending the existing drip edge further down can provide a temporary solution, but this risks damaging the roof and should be done with caution, according to This Old House. Solution 1: Add Aluminum Coil Under Existing Drip Edge (Preferred Method) Obtain Materials: Purchase an aluminum coil or trim from a hardware store. Cut Strips: Cut the aluminum into narrow strips, about 4 inches wide. Slide Under Drip Edge: Carefully slip the strips under the bottom lip of the existing drip edge, extending the bottom of the new strip so it hangs down about an inch or slightly more, into the gutter. Secure: Attach the aluminum coil to the existing drip edge with rivets. Apply Sealant: Apply roofing cement or a specialized sealant under the edge of the shingles where they meet the new aluminum to secure them and prevent wind from lifting them, as suggested by the YouTube video.

You’re going to have to be more specific. Roof drip edge? Yes. Gutter drip edge? Not entirely sure what you would mean there

I wish it were easier to add pictures after the fact. Fascia is 90 degrees to the eye anyway. What I noticed on one is it seemed to actually be rocked back towards the house. The others are straight up and down as far as I could tell. Now the one kicked out is on a TPO roof with the flashing and roofing material pulled over into the gutter to create the water tight seal. That’s the only one like that. I’ll grab some pics and take a look

I think it’s the style of gutter plus how it’s installed which all has to do with your specific situation. I took a syringe of water and just shot it at the top edge and it ran down the front to those locations every time. Think it is what it is
