This ensures a seamless match in color and a high standard of quality, empowering designers and users to greatly enhance the visual appeal of the building while achieving contemporary architectural lines.
A standard trim and flashing system typically encompasses:
Eave Trim: Installed along the eaves of the building, this component provides protection against the elements and gives a finished appearance to the roof edge.
Ridge Cap: Placed at the peak of the roof, the ridge cap serves to cover the joint between two roof slopes, preventing water and debris from entering.
Corner Trim: These are used to finish the edges of the building, providing a clean look and protecting the corners from wear and tear.
Gable Trim: Located at the gable ends of the building, this trim provides a neat finish and helps direct water away from the structure.
Valley Gutter: Installed in areas where two roof slopes meet, the valley gutter collects and directs water towards the gutters and downspouts.
Base Trim: Positioned at the base of the walls, this trim adds structural support and protects the lower portion of the walls from damage.
Rake Trim: Used at the sloping edges of the roof, the rake trim offers protection and a polished appearance to the gable ends.
Gutter and Downspout System: These components work together to collect and direct rainwater away from the building, preventing water damage.
Flashings: These are used to seal joints and transitions, preventing water infiltration at vulnerable points in the building envelope.
Ridge Vent: Installed along the ridge of the roof, this trim component allows for proper ventilation and helps regulate temperature and moisture levels inside the building.
Louvers: These are used for ventilation purposes, allowing fresh air to circulate while keeping out rain and other elements.
Drip Edge: Positioned at the edge of the roof, the drip edge directs water away from the building, preventing it from seeping under the roofing material.
Skylight Trim: Specifically designed for skylights, this trim ensures a watertight seal around the opening, preventing leaks.
Roof-to-Wall Transition Trim: This trim provides a smooth transition between the roof and the vertical walls of the building, ensuring proper sealing.
