Roof overhang city villa: wood or plastic?

Since I was not personally on site at that time and only received the pictures, I do not know exactly what they did there.

Exactly, something is taken off the rafter to the thickness of the board.

I think you could already see that in the first picture.

Thank you very much for the great photos and explanation!!!

Now I have a clear idea of how it is done and can also tell the carpenter that this is how it should be. Actually, a very simple solution that one could have figured out oneself

Wishing everyone a nice weekend

It is not a solution, it is the standard. And if nothing else is agreed upon, then it will only be like that.

But for my problem, it was the solution. Thank you

Good evening everyone,
I just got a remark from my brother-in-law that it could probably be very maintenance-intensive.
How often would you have to do it again (clean, paint), especially on the weather side? We would want to paint it light (beige/cream), since we will be building in the country house style.

Regards

The house in which we live (45-degree gable roof, roof overhang painted white) has not been repainted even once since 1993.
