Fix a flat roof edge

For making or fixing a flat roof edge (think roof trim, fascia finishing and watertight connections), Zoofy typically uses an hourly roofer rate of €75 per hour.

In practice, total costs usually range between €75 and €750, based on 267 jobs. The final price mainly depends on the length of the roof edge, accessibility (height/scaffolding), the material (e.g. zinc/trim), and whether old parts need to be removed or the edge needs to be re-sealed properly.

Good to know: Zoofy has no call-out fees, so you won’t be surprised by extra charges.

On average, making or neatly finishing a flat roof edge takes about 2.2 hours, based on 4 jobs. For longer edges or multiple corners and returns, it can take closer to half a day.

If old materials have to come off first, there’s damaged wood in the fascia, or the waterproofing needs reworking, preparation usually takes the most time.

A flat roof edge is all about a clean finish and a watertight connection. A professional typically follows these steps:

1) Roof-edge inspection
Checking fascia boards, the roof membrane edge, corners and connections for cracks, looseness or leak-risk areas.

2) Surface preparation
Removing loose/old parts, cleaning and levelling the surface, and doing minor repairs where needed.

3) Measuring and installing the edge finishing
Cutting trim/edge flashing to size, aligning it neatly and fixing it securely.

4) Watertight finishing
Sealing joints and corners carefully and checking the edge for proper runoff and protection.

5) Final check and tidy-up
Confirming everything is secure, finished neatly and leaving the work area clean.
