What aluminum fascia wrapping does

Aluminum wrapping can protect or cover exposed trim. The condition of the wood beneath it still matters when deciding what work to do.

Ask which trim areas the crew will inspect and what happens if the underlying wood is damaged. The estimate should say what will be wrapped and how repairs beneath the wrap would be handled.

Talk with Dekoven Roofing about which materials and installation options may fit your roof.

What it is

Aluminum fascia wrapping covers the wooden board at the roof edge with formed aluminum, protecting it from weather.

What it does

  • Shields wood from rain and sun.
  • Reduces repainting.
  • Gives a clean edge.

What it does not do

It does not repair rotted wood. Damaged fascia boards should be fixed or replaced first, since wrapping over rot hides the problem and lets it spread.

Questions

How is existing damage handled? How are gutters detached and re-hung? What color and finish are available?

Frequently asked questions

Is wrapping permanent?

It lasts a long time, but it still needs inspection.

Can gutters stay in place?

Often they are removed and re-hung. Ask.

Does wrapping affect ventilation?

Ask how soffit and venting are handled.
