The roofline product is used where the building or your home meets the roof. This is the most vulnerable part of the building or your house as it’s exposed to the elements more than any other section of the house. As well as this it is also a difficult section of the building to get to and it is one of the areas of the building or your house that is observed the least. If it’s left unchecked water from damaged gutters, that have been blocked or broken, could overflow and create conditions which can cause damp and mould on the inside part of your building or home. Also, your roof can begin to rot if moisture gets in your joints, rafters or roof. Repairs will be costly if this happens.
Commonly roofline products are made from timber. Although wood is porous an is extremely susceptible to water, fire and insects while being combustible. Timber can also absorb water, but this can compromise its strength and cause adverse health effects. Another option you could go for is PVC (polyvinyl chloride). You could use this instead of timber. This is cheaper and more modern, it can also improve the outside appearance of your roof and the performance of it.
