The profiles that extend past the fascia by about 1/2" and with the
bottom edged kicked out are the best profiles to use at both rake and
eave. They're better for a bunch of reasons. The 90 degree bent edges
are poor substitutes.


Rico,
So the preferred ones from your link would be F-Styles: FA 1/2, F5 & FSN4
1/2? What would be your choice for a shingled roof with gutters? For a
tiled roof with no gutters, no fascia except 1x2 nailed on plywood edge?



Tile roofs are pretty scarce around here, and I've never worked on one.
I'm not sure if the roof edge requirements are different for them.
The F 4 1/2 is a good all around choice. The only time that the
gutters would come into play is if the fascia was narrow and the gutter
guy went with a simple way of hanging them. The height that a gutter
is supposed to be held down from the extended plane of the shingles is
dependent on the slope and your local conditions. It's held down
mainly to allow snow and ice to slide off, so that may not be a concern
where you are.
