Eaves Ventilation


Eaves Ventilation: Welcome to our Eaves Ventilation and Protection category page where you will find the products like the eaves ventilation strip you can use to tackle water ingress, moisture penetration and condensation at roof level. When it comes to protecting your home from water ingress and eaves decay, there are many options. The solution that works best protects the whole structure—not just one component.

Starting your protective measures at roof level is a wise choice. Degradation of felt and the secondary rotting of rafter timbers and roof structures can cause issues that will eventually affect the whole of your building.

Unchecked moisture ingress is the silent and almost invisible home wrecker that needs to be taken seriously and we have the products like an eaves ventilation tray can prevent it, in stock and available for rapid delivery.

Your Eaves Protection Product Options
We offer a complete range of products designed to protect your home's roof structure and keep it safe for years to come. These products are equally as effective when retro-fitted as they are when used in a new roof installation.

Our felt support trays are designed with longevity in mind, while our over fascia vents have a low-profile design that makes them almost undetectable once installed. And our eaves comb fillers create a barrier against birds and other insects, preventing them from entering the void between the underside of your tiles and your underlay on pitched roofs.

Our products are designed for long-term protection against water ingress and eaves decay—and because we only source from top manufacturers with a reputation for quality, we are confident that they're built to last and will serve you well for years to come.

So let's take a closer look at some of our key eaves ventilation and roof protection products.

Felt Support Trays
The felt support tray is the most cost-effective, robust and simple way to provide a complete felt support system that will not deteriorate. Designed to prevent the degradation of felt and the secondary rotting of rafter timbers and roof structures. The PVC tray has three sections – the body that is laid under the felt underlay, a join, and a flap. The body is laid under the felt underlay but on top of the over fascia vent. The small flap at the bottom should be pointing down, dipping into the gutter.

Over Fascia Vents
Over Fascia Vents have a low-profile design for minimum disruption to the eaves detail. Once installed, and almost undetectable, they still allow a continuous 10mm & 25mm air gap, when fitted on the top edge of the fascia board.

Eaves Comb Fillers
Protecting your roof from moisture is important but at the same time, you need to stop birds and large insects from entering your roof void and causing damage. The Eaves Comb Filler, commonly known as a Bird Comb, is designed for use with concrete or clay profiled tiles. The comb filler is a flexible grill which fills the profile and creates a barrier against birds and large insects, preventing them from entering the void between the underside of the profiled tiles and the underlay on pitched roofs.

The Combined Option
Why not make life simple? We also stock the European Plastics Eaves Protection System that comes in two kits, the '3 in 1' and the '2 in 1'.

The '3 in 1' kit includes a fixed eaves tray with a 10mm fascia vent and a bird comb for use with profiled tiles as an all-in-one kit. The '2 in 1' does not have the bird comb as it's more commonly used with flat tiles or slates.
