Eaves

The eaves are the edges of the roof which overhang the face of a wall and, normally, project beyond the side of a building. The eaves form an overhang to throw water clear of the walls and may be highly decorated as part of an architectural style.

In this business we call eaves the soffit that meets the roof. This is a common area where rodents or wildlife will enter so we will use metal flashing to seal this area.
