First a big thank you to XSleeper for anwering my earlier questions. Now for some more. 1. I'll be putting metal drip edging along the eaves (under the felt) and rake edges (over the felt). What happens at the corners of the rakes and eaves? Do the drip edges simply but together or should the one be bent around the corner (e.g., the rake edge bent around the eave)? 2. Can I simply staple the felt down with 3/8" staples that I already have on hand? 3. Do the felt and shingles need to extend beyond the edges of the rakes and eaves? If so by how much? 4. I assume I need to put the aluminum soffits on before installing the vinyl siding and that the channel for the top edge of the siding just butts up against the underside of the channel that holds the soffits. Is that correct? Thanks.

I have a fairly old house with an eavestrough with a serious slope problem. About 12ft of a 30 ft long eavesthrough is slopped slightly back towards the end of the eavestroughs where water should flow away from. The result is that this 12ft section always seems to have a resevoir of water even 2 or three days after it rains. The 1 or 2 feet of this 12ft section right next to the house can have up to a inch and a half of standing water, which leaks onto the porch steps and is now reaking havoc on the concrete in the summer, and creating mamoth icicles in the winter. Replacing the entire eavestroughs system is tool costly, and I was considering using some type of filler to create an almost false bottom to the 12ft section with the wrong slope and in doing so recreate a pathway that would help water flow away from the house. But i don't know what to use. Is this a good idea and if not what would you do? and what is the best way to do this ?
