Roof repair installing asphalt shingles beside a brick chimney

Drip Edge Repair

Drip edge is the metal strip at the eaves and the rakes. It kicks water off the roof so it does not run back onto the fascia. Drip edge repair replaces metal that is bent, rusted, or missing.

The work

What is drip edge repair?

The edge metal sits under the shingles and sticks out past the fascia. When it is gone, water soaks the fascia and the soffit and can rot the rafter tails. The repair lifts the first course enough to set new metal, then puts that course back.

Rotted wood behind the metal is fascia repair or soffit repair. A leak in the field of the roof is roof leak repair.

Why it matters

Why this work matters

The edge is where a roof hands water to the gutter. Without the metal, the wood takes that water. Paint on the fascia will not stop it.

New drip edge on a roof that still has life in the shingles is a repair. A roof that is done everywhere is a replacement, and you are told which one it is.
