What Are Roofing Valleys Used For?

Roofing valleys serve a critical drainage function:

• Water Channeling: Directs rainwater from two roof slopes into gutters
• Leak Prevention: Protects the most vulnerable points of complex roofs
• Structural Protection: Keeps water away from wooden trusses and walls
• High-Volume Drainage: Handles heavy rain flow during storms

When Do You Need Roofing Valleys?

Roofing valleys are essential for these roof designs:

• L-Shaped Buildings: Where two wings meet at an angle
• T-Shaped Buildings: Where extensions join the main structure
• Houses with Extensions: Added rooms or sections
• Complex Roof Designs: Multiple roof sections meeting at angles
• Dormer Windows: Where dormer roofs meet main roof

Simple Rule: If two roof slopes meet at an INTERNAL angle (forming a valley), you need roofing valleys. If they meet at an EXTERNAL angle (forming a peak), you need ridges instead.

Valleys vs Ridges – Understanding the Difference

Many customers confuse roofing valleys with ridges. Here’s the simple difference:

• Valleys: Used at INTERNAL angles where water flows DOWN and collects. Shaped like a gutter to channel water.
• Ridges: Used at EXTERNAL angles (peaks) where water flows AWAY on both sides. Shaped like an inverted V to shed water.

How Many Valleys Do I Need?

Calculate your roofing valleys requirement:

• Measure the length of each valley line on your roof
• Each valley piece covers approximately 1 meter with overlap
• Add 15-20% extra for overlaps (valleys need more overlap than ridges)

Example: An L-shaped house with a 6-meter valley line needs approximately 7-8 valley pieces.

Proper Valley Installation Tips

For leak-free roofing valleys installation:

• Valleys should be installed BEFORE the mabati sheets
• Ensure adequate overlap between valley pieces (minimum 15cm)
• Mabati sheets should overlap the valley by at least 10cm on each side
• Use sealant at joints for extra waterproofing
• Ensure valley slopes toward the gutter for proper drainage

We strongly recommend professional installation for valleys as they’re critical leak points.

Frequently Asked Questions About Roofing Valleys

Why do valleys leak more than other roof parts?
Valleys collect water from two roof slopes, handling much higher water volumes than other areas. This makes proper installation critical. Quality valleys with correct installation prevent leaks.

Can I install valleys on an existing roof?
Yes, but it requires lifting the mabati sheets along the valley line. This is best done by experienced professionals to avoid damaging your existing roof.

Should valley color match my roof?
Valleys are mostly hidden under the mabati sheets, so color matching is less critical than for ridges. However, matching colors gives a cleaner look where valleys are visible.

How long do roofing valleys last?
Our galvanized steel roofing valleys last 15-20+ years with proper installation. They’re designed to match the lifespan of your mabati roof.

Do simple gable roofs need valleys?
No. Simple two-slope gable roofs only need ridges at the peak. Valleys are only needed when two roof sections meet at an internal angle.
