Why Use Metal Eave
Closure?
Cement: When using cement, it tends
to block water from under the tile not allowing proper drainage, thus
causing water to stand and eventually leaks and/or rots the fascia.
Cement is very labor intensive and hard to keep expensive oxides consistent
in color.
Rubber: Rubber tends to shrink after
a period of time, it rots and birds often peck at it, causing holes.
Aging rubber fades in color and, like cement, it has poor water drainage.
It is difficult to attach to the roof and often falls out causing
unnecessary call backs. Rubber is also very expensive.
Metal: Metal is far superior to
other closures for many reasons. The cost is less than half the cost
of rubber. There is 80% less labor expense than cement. Metal is
always consistent in color and allows proper drainage. It keeps the
first course of tile straight, and is much faster to install.
Cosmetically, metal is superior due to consistency in color and uniformity. |
