Understanding the differences between soffits and eaves is essential to ensuring your roofline’s look, function, and feel match your specific needs and preferences.
Eaves and soffits overlap, so many homeowners are unsure whether they need one or both types of vents. Despite their proximity to one another they have quite different forms and functions.
Soffits/Continuous Soffits are long boards fixed to the underside of your home’s rafters, connecting they overhanging part of the roof to the side of the property.
