The soffit board helps protect your new roof installation against moisture damage. Cool air enters your roof through the holes in soffit boards and pushes out warm, humid air through the vents. Without adequate ventilation, humid air is trapped inside your roof, creating a damp environment that’s the perfect breeding ground for mold that can easily affect other parts of your building.
But like other parts of your roof, the soffit board can be affected by several issues, which include:
Important note: Ice dams may be a sign your roof or attic doesn’t have enough insulation or ventilation. If there are thick ice dams forming near the edge of your roof, you should have a professional roofer conduct a roof inspection.
Keep in mind the warning signs of the aforementioned are not always visible from ground-level, which is why it’s important to follow a maintenance routine for your roof.
