Tech/Engineering - Construction / Civil Engineering / roofing job quotation | | Dutch term or phrase: dakrandafwerking | for a quotation for roofing work.
"...2 -laagse dakrandafwerking, beide van voldoende breedte" - from a list of work and prices
Roof edge finishing does not sound correct - I've also found 'verge' for 'dakrand,' but am not really at home with some of the terms in this text, so any help is appreciated! TIA. |

| Grading comment Although verge is used in the other term with 'dakrand,'the customer prefers "edge" in this case. Kate's term was the closest with 'finish.' Thanks all!

1 hr confidence: roof verge detailing
Explanation:
Or:
roof verge finishing
roof verge cover
I would personally opt for:
double ply roof verge detail
For single and double ply (flat) roofing systems can be covered/finished by fascias, caps or gravels stops. This has to do with the choice of detailing the roof's edges/verges.
