Boxed Eaves
Boxed Eaves
Open eaves allow embers to lodge in rafters and soffits, igniting your roof from underneath. Boxed eaves are a proven ember defense upgrade.
We use James Hardie fiber cement board, a non-combustible, durable material that looks clean and resists rot and fire.
"Hardie® Soffit panels are noncombustible—they will not burn.* Enclosing eaves with noncombustible fiber cement soffit is recommended** to improve your home's resilience to wildfires. " - jameshardie.com
Our team retrofits or replaces open eaves with boxed assemblies, sealed and vented according to WUI compliance.
Boxed eaves stop ember intrusion before it starts.
