Roofing Washington, One Home at a Time
Refresh worn rake boards, frieze, and eave trim that frame your roofline and take a beating from Northwest weather.
Roof trim, including the rake boards, frieze, and decorative moldings along your gables and eaves, is often the first exterior wood to show peeling and rot in our climate. We replace these trim elements with rot-resistant stock milled to match your home's original profile. Because trim ties into siding and flashing, we detail every joint to shed the wind-driven rain that funnels down PNW gable ends. The result crisps up your home's silhouette while sealing a common water-entry path.
Restores crisp, defined lines along gables and eaves; seals wind-driven rain paths where trim meets siding; replaces peeling wood with weather-durable materials; preserves the original architectural profile of the home
1) Document existing trim profiles and remove the worn pieces; 2) Inspect and flash the substrate behind the trim; 3) Mill or source matching rot-resistant replacements; 4) Fasten, caulk joints, and prime for a weather-tight finish
Total length and variety of trim profiles involved; custom milling to match older or ornate details; integration with existing siding and flashing; number of stories and gable heights to reach
Tackle trim work in summer's dry weather to allow caulk and primer to cure before storm season.
