A drip edge and roof protection apparatus that can be used on a building roof to effectively direct water away from the roof and into a gutter system without compromising original shingle installation. The drip edge is designed with a first horizontal member and a second horizontal member, effectively parallel to one another and connected together, that fit under roofing shingles. An open U-shaped throat is configured to fit over an existing drip edge, and a downwardly extending leg (vertical member) with a flexible foot portion, referenced as the drip edge is present. It is compatible with different types of gutter designs and serves to prevent water from seeping between the fascia and the gutter wall, thus safeguarding the building from water damage and avoiding damage to the gutter caused by ice accumulation.
