Your roofline does more than just cover your house; it protects the whole thing from the weather and wear. Your fascia boards and gutters are the most important parts of that system. Sadly, both are very sensitive to moisture. This is when the drip edge extension becomes very important.

When it rains, water naturally flows down the slope of your roof. Without the right direction, it can run under shingles, drip behind gutters, and soak the fascia. Over time, this causes paint to peel, rot, and even gutters to come off. A drip edge extension gives water a clean, controlled way to leave the roof, which gets rid of these problems.

The extension makes a small but important overhang. The metal lip on the extension catches rainwater as it slides off the shingles and drops it cleanly into the gutter trough. That simple change protects both the fascia board and the wood behind it. It also stops water from pouring down behind the gutter and getting into the soffit during heavy storms.

Guttahs makes drip edge extensions that are well-made and last for decades without rusting. Not only do they protect, but they also give your roof a neat, finished edge that makes it look better.

A drip edge extension is a one-time upgrade that saves homeowners from having to make expensive repairs and paint their homes all the time. This small metal strip might be just what you need if your home has fascia stains or overflowing gutters.
