Roof Edge & Drainage
Eavestroughs, soffit, and fascia in Edmonton are the unsung half of your roof system. Ellerslie Roofing installs seamless eavestroughs and ventilated soffit that move water away from your foundation and keep your attic breathing.

Eavestroughs, soffit, and fascia in Edmonton work together to protect your home in ways most people never think about until something fails. Eavestroughs catch the water shedding off your roof and route it through downspouts away from the foundation. Fascia caps the roof edge and gives the eavestroughs something solid to hang from. Soffit fills the underside of the overhang and, when vented, feeds the intake air your attic needs to stay cool and dry. We install and replace all three so the whole edge of your roof does its job.
| Component | Options | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Eavestroughs | 5 inch and 6 inch seamless aluminum | 6 inch handles more water for large roofs |
| Soffit | Vented and solid aluminum | Vented panels supply attic intake air |
| Fascia | Aluminum capping over wood, or full aluminum | Resists moisture, no repainting |
| Gutter guards | Mesh and solid-cover styles | Reduce cleaning and clogging |
Edmonton's spring melt and summer storms send a lot of water off the roof in a hurry, and our long winters mean ice and debris are constant companions. Undersized or clogged eavestroughs overflow, sending water straight down against the foundation right where you do not want it. Poorly vented soffit traps attic heat that melts snow unevenly and feeds ice dams at the eaves. We size eavestroughs for the roof, pitch them correctly to the downspouts, and make sure soffit ventilation is balanced, so your drainage and airflow are ready for every season.

FAQ
Eavestroughs are the gutters that catch roof runoff and carry it to downspouts. Fascia is the board that caps the roof edge and that the eavestroughs attach to. Soffit is the ventilated underside of the roof overhang that lets fresh air into the attic. Together they manage water and airflow for the whole roof system.
Seamless eavestroughs are formed on site to the exact length of each run, so there are no joints along the run to leak or clog. Fewer seams means fewer failure points, which matters during Edmonton's heavy spring melt and summer downpours.
Ventilated soffit provides the intake air your attic needs. Balanced intake and exhaust keeps the attic cool and dry, which extends shingle life, helps prevent ice dams, and protects against moisture damage. Building standards call for roughly one square foot of venting per 300 square feet of attic.
Yes. When eavestroughs overflow, water pools against the foundation and can find its way into the basement, and in winter it contributes to ice dams. Properly sized, sloped, and maintained eavestroughs are one of the cheapest forms of water protection for your home.
Yes. Rotted or pest-damaged fascia is replaced and then capped or covered with durable aluminum so it resists moisture going forward. We address the underlying cause, such as overflowing gutters, at the same time.
