Product Information

Full details

The Ubbink Eaves Guard is an essential roofing accessory for homeowners and contractors seeking to prevent water damage at the roofline by ensuring proper drainage and protection against wind-driven rain. It provides a robust barrier for the roofing membrane at the eaves, directing moisture safely into the gutter system. While highly effective at safeguarding roof timbers, it requires careful measurement and overlapping during installation to ensure complete coverage across the entire length of the fascia board.

FAQs

How much coverage does a pack of 5 provide?

Each unit is 1.5m long. With a 150mm overlap required for each join, a pack of 5 covers approximately 6.75 meters of roof length.

Do I need special tools for installation?

No, you only need a hammer and suitable roofing nails to fix the guard to the fascia board.

Can this be used with all types of roofing felt?

Yes, it is designed to support most standard roofing membranes and felt types.

What is the recommended fixing interval?

It is recommended to nail the guard to the fascia at 300mm centers for a secure fit.

Is the 150mm overlap mandatory?

Yes, the overlap is required to prevent water ingress at the joints between individual lengths of the eaves guard.

Troubleshooting

Tray is sagging between fixings

Ensure that your fixing centers do not exceed 300mm and that the tray is properly supported by the fascia board.

Water is dripping behind the gutter

Check that the 50mm drip-down portion is correctly positioned inside the gutter profile and that the overlap between lengths is maintained.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Prevents internal roof water damage
Easy to install with standard nailing
Provides a clean, professional finish for roofing membranes
Compatible with most standard fascia boards

Cons

Requires overlapping which reduces effective total length per pack
Not suitable for curved or non-standard fascia profiles
Requires careful alignment for proper water discharge

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your fascia board is clean and securely fixed to the rafters. Align the first piece of the Ubbink Eaves Guard with the edge of the roof, ensuring the 50mm drip section hangs over the gutter. Use corrosion-resistant nails to fix the tray to the top of the fascia board at 300mm intervals. When joining sections, maintain the recommended 150mm overlap. This product is generally maintenance-free once installed, but it is good practice to clear the guttering at least twice a year to ensure the drip-edge remains unobstructed and that water flows freely from the tray into the drainage system.
