Fascias & Soffits

The majority of properties in Berks, Bucks, Herts, Oxon, Surrey and London have fascias, soffits and bargeboards of one type or another, some with panels of softwood timber cladding. Similarly to timber windows, to prevent them from rotting these wood products need regular expensive maintenance with both ongoing repairs and external redecoration - all of which takes a lot of time and effort simply to maintain these hard to reach areas.

Full Replacement or Cap-Over

Sadly, some UK home owners, rather than replacing old rotting wooden fascias with UPVC fascias, instead choose to fit capping boards. Whilst in the short term this can seem like a cheap option, in reality over time pre-existing problem will only get worse, as the rotting timber will continue to deteriorate. Eventually the nails will become loose, leaving your fascias exposed, unsecure and your property not properly protected.

UPVC Roofline Versus Softwood Timber

Softwood timber is a porous material and once water has breached the outer layer it is only a matter of time before the wood starts to rot. High quality UPVC Rooflines on the other hand will never rot, nor ever need painting and will not discolour. UPVC Rooflines are virtually maintenance free, only ever needing the occasional rub down with warm soapy water. Cleaning them roughly once a year will keep them looking good for future years.
