Advantages of Drip Edges:

Water Management: Drip edges effectively direct water from the roof into the drainage system, preventing pooling or seepage beneath the eaves and protecting the building’s structure from potential water damage.

Corrosion Prevention: By preventing water from cascading off the roof edge onto exterior walls or foundations, drip edges reduce moisture exposure, thereby lowering the risk of corrosion.

Support for Roof Structure: Drip edges aid in redirecting water away from the roof’s edge, decreasing water pressure at the eaves and reducing stress on the roof, which can extend its lifespan.

Enhanced Aesthetics: Drip edges contribute to the visual appeal of the roof edge, providing a cleaner appearance that enhances the overall look of the building.

Ice and Snow Mitigation: In colder regions, drip edges play a crucial role in preventing the accumulation of ice and snow at the roof’s edge, reducing load and potential damage to the roof while promoting safety.

Roof drip edges are available in nearly fifty different profiles, sizes, and shapes to accommodate various roof types, slopes, and other specific roofing needs.

If you need to replace or install a drip edge on an existing roof, it’s certainly achievable. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Step One: Carefully lift the shingles along the roof’s edge to identify the nails securing the current drip edge.

Step Two: Use a flat pry bar and hammer to gently remove the nails from the drip edge.

Step Three: Once the drip edge is detached, slide it out and dispose of it properly.

Step Four: Install the new drip edge, ensuring to use roofing cement and nails, while having another professional hold the shingles in place.

Before proceeding, check local building codes for any specific requirements regarding drip edge replacements.

Historically, many building codes didn’t mandate drip edges, but the roofing industry has recognized their importance in enhancing roof performance. Properly installed drip edges contribute significantly to a more effective roofing system.

 

If you find that your roof lacks a drip edge or has one that’s damaged, consider reaching out to a roofing contractor via our Roofing Contractor Locator for expert guidance.
