Proper drip edge flashing is needed to divert water away from the fascia, roof deck, and rake boards. The International Residential Code has mandated drip edges since 2012 to ensure water is directed away from these areas.
Until recently, only snow-belt states required drip edge to prevent issues with ice backup caused by melting snow, which exposed the flashing point—allowing water to penetrate the rafter tails, insulation, fascia and soffits.
More recently, many building code writers in the rest of the county—especially the south—have also adopted the drip edge requirement to help guard against wood rot. And Quality Edge brings smart, innovative perimeter flashing solutions to every project you deliver.

Designed with performance and durability in mind, our pre-notched T-Style drip edge is extremely effective at guiding water away from the roof while meeting IBC and IRC building code requirements with overlaps without notching.
Installers have to be trained to hand notch drip edge in the field. Fish-mouthing can occur when the nose of the drip edge is pinched from incorrect handling.
TruFit™ Pre-Notched Drip Edge is dual hemmed for strength and clean lines. Pre-Notched for a perfect fit, easy alignment, requires
no training and has a 2” overlap to meet code.
FUNCTION
Perfect fit, easy alignment and angled overlap for a closed seam.
No hand-notching needed.

Gravel Stop is metal flashing installed at the roof edge to prevent gravel from falling off the roof. Typically used on low slope roofs, Quality Edge gravel stop provides a finished look while offering protection from water penetration.
Concerned about ice back-up and rot development on a commercial property? Quality Edge asphalt drip edge delivers the protection you need. In fact, that’s why this type of flashing is becoming code in many areas.
Gutter Apron ensures smooth water flow, safeguarding soffits, sheathing, and siding from water damage. It’s perfect for low-sloped roofs or those where shingles don’t extend far enough to guide water into the gutter. Installed over the roof edge, beneath the shingles, it extends over the back of the gutter to prevent water splashing behind it.
Quality Edge offers a wide variety of colors to provide endless possibilities to make a roof and supporting elements last longer and look professional while doing it. Our perimeter flashing is available in aluminum and steel colors for today’s most popular exterior color pairings.
