Eave Trim

Eave trim is a critical component in any metal roofing system. Installed along the roof’s lower edge, it directs water away from wall panels, prevents moisture intrusion, and strengthens the transition between the roof and sidewalls. Indaco Metals fabricates eave trim to match your roof panel profile and chosen color, ensuring both performance and consistent curb appeal.

From barns and shops to residential garages and commercial buildings, eave trim adds long-term protection while creating the finished detail that completes your roofline.
