The Ubbink Eaves Guard (MPN: 294254PK20) is an essential solution for roofing contractors and DIY homeowners looking to protect their roof structure from moisture damage and decay. Designed to bridge the gap between the roof membrane and the gutter, this support tray prevents the felt from sagging and ensures water is directed safely into the drainage system. While it provides robust long-term protection, it requires precise installation to ensure effective overlaps and secure fixing to the fascia boards.

Yes, the Eaves Guard is designed to be compatible with both timber and PVC fascia boards.
You should maintain a 150mm overlap between each 1.5m length to ensure a secure, watertight connection.
Each pack contains 20 lengths of 1.5m, providing a total linear coverage of 30 meters, accounting for overlaps.
No, you only need standard tools such as a hammer, corrosion-resistant nails, and a utility knife for trimming if necessary.
While not strictly required, taping the membrane to the support tray can help ensure a more secure and airtight finish.
The material is designed for exterior roof applications and is built to withstand environmental exposure.
Check for debris or unevenness on the top surface of the fascia board and clear it before fixing.
Ensure the 50mm drip edge is correctly positioned over the gutter and that the tray is not fixed too far back on the fascia.
Check that the fixing intervals are at least 300mm and that the 150mm overlap is secured with a nail.
To install, position the Ubbink Eaves Guard on top of your timber or PVC fascia boards. Use corrosion-resistant nails to fix the tray at 300mm intervals, ensuring it sits flush against the fascia. When connecting multiple trays, overlap them by 150mm and secure the overlapping section with an additional nail to maintain structural alignment. The product is compatible with most standard roofing membranes; for a completely airtight finish, you may apply roofing tape over the junction where the membrane meets the support tray. Regular inspection of the guttering is recommended to ensure that debris is not causing water to back up onto the drip edge.
