I had a new shingle roof installed. The contractor did not extend the first course of shingles beyond the drip edge so the water tracks the edge and runs down the fascia. How do I fix it?

Answer:
You can try.... running a bead of caulk along the underside of the drip edge to make a "drip edge" Or, run a piece of matching flashing under the drip edge into the gutter.
