What is Roofline

The term Roofline is used to describe the Fascia, Gutters, Bargeboards, Soffits and Cladding that form the front of a house directly underneath the roof and eaves. Traditionally these were made of wood The Fascia boards run along the actual roofline of your property to protect the roof and the interior of your home from moisture and acts as a finishing trim over the ends of the properties rafters and tresses providing the roof with a smooth even look to which the gutters are normally connected.

The area underneath the Fascia is known as the Soffits which provide ventilation onto the roof area which can help to reduce condensation build up on the roof and is the part of the roofline that you are most likely to see from street level

Rain Gutters are troughs which connect to the roofline on the Fascia Boards which collect rain water and drain it away through drainpipes to stop the water from damaging your sidings, windows, doors and foundations.
