Todd, What should the minimum overhang be on a standing seam roof with a 12/12 pitch?

Usually you use an extended eve drip edge and you take the sheet and hem it 1" and that locks in to the drip edge covering the fastners. so make sure you and the inch for the hem and the drip overhangs an inch. so add 2 inches past your fascia.
