Soffits & Fascias in Ballachulish


Fascias and soffits are a crucial aspect of the majority of guttering systems. Not only do they offer support for the guttering itself, they improve the style of your home by creating a clean and neat finish to the roofline. Fascias or fascia boards are horizontal boards that sit on the edge of the rafters of your roof, closing the end of the roof and providing the support that the guttering is fixed to. Soffits run under the fascia boards, closing the gap and protecting the underside of the rafter ends. Soffits are generally ventilated to allow the roof timbers to breathe and to stop any moisture buildup. Box ends are used where the horizontal fascia meets the diagonal barge board that runs up the edge of the roof profile, giving a neat finish to an otherwise ugly join.

 

Fascias and soffits are often constructed from either wood or UPVC. Wood fascias and soffits are common on older properties and remain popular. However, wooden fascias and soffits can rot over time and expose the rest of the guttering to problems or leaks. Recently, UPVC fascias and soffits have been increasingly popular as they offer a durable choice that won't rot. UPVC fascias and soffits are available in a variety of colours to suit any property, although white is very popular as it provides a traditional appearance. Fascias are also available in ogee moulded designs, where feature grooves are included. These can have an impressive effect.

Ballachulish

The village of Ballachulish in Lochaber, Highland, Scotland, is centred on previous slate quarries. The name Ballachulish (Ballecheles, 1522-- Straits town,) was extra properly applied to the area currently called North Ballachulish, to the north of Loch Leven, yet was usurped for the quarry towns at East Laroch and West Laroch, either side of the River Laroch, which were in fact within Glencoe and South Ballachulish specifically. The principal market is currently tourist, although many visitors pass promptly by the town itself. The name Ballachulish (from Scottish Gaelic, Baile a' Chaolais) implies "the Town by the Narrows". The narrows in question is Caolas Mhic Phàdraig - Peter or Patrick's boy's narrows, at the mouth of Loch Leven. As there was no roadway to the head of Loch Leven till 1927, the Ballachulish Ferry, developed in 1733, as well as those at Invercoe/Callert as well as Caolas na Disadvantage were essential. The Ballachulish ferry enclosed December 1975 when the Ballachulish Bridge lastly opened up. The Ballachulish Hotel and Ballachulish House (until lately a lodge hotel) lie near the tightens at (south) Ballachulish Ferry as opposed to in the "contemporary" town some 3 miles (5 kilometres) east. Ballachulish House was reputed to be haunted, as well as the drive bring about it was ridden by a headless horseman. The hamlet of Glenachulish hinge on Gleann a' Chaolais, the glen that runs down to the narrows. This is the topic of the Gaelic song, Gleann Bhaile Chaoil written by John Cameron (1865-- 1951) and also understood in your area both as the Paisley Poet as well as by his regional label Iain Cealaidh. He is usually perplexed with one more regional poet likewise called John Cameron, known in your area as Iain Rob (1822-- 1898). Gleann a' Chaolais is ringed by Beinn a' Bheithir, a massif which consists of 2 munros - Sgorr Dhearg and Sgorr Dhonuill. In recent times a variety of new houses have actually been developed in your area in addition to holiday chalets as well as an art gallery. Likewise the fields of Gleann a' Chaolais have actually been turned into the 9-hole Dragon's Tooth golf links. Ignoring the narrows is the monument to James of the Glen, "hanged on this area for a crime of which he was not guilty". Robert Louis Stevenson based his unique Kidnapped around the story of the Appin Murder. Whoever did eliminate The Red Fox (Campbell of Glenure) is still not known.

    FAQs

    What are soffits and fascias?

    Soffits and fascias sit along the sides of your property, over the join between your walls and your roof. The fascia attaches to the end of your roof rafters, hiding and protecting them. The soffit fixes on the bottom of the fascia, bridging the gap between your fascia and wall. Your guttering attaches to the fascia, which also joins to the bargeboard on your gable end, if you have one.

    What colour should soffits and fascias be?

    Soffits and fascias are available in lots of different colours. These include black, grey, brown, white and cream. It’s also possible to get them in brighter colours like reds, blues and greens.

     

    What colour soffits and fascias you get is entirely up to you, unless you live in a listed building, in which case some rules may apply. Most people choose a colour that matches their roof, walls or window frames to give their property an attractive, colour-coordinated look.

    When should I replace my soffits and fascias?

    You should replace your soffits and fascias if you are having problems. Soffits and fascias can degrade and rot away over time, and this can cause leaks, faulty guttering, or even allow pests entry to the roof space. If any of these problems occur, you should speak to an experienced roofline company to discuss replacing your soffits and fascias.

    how to fit fascias and soffits?

    Fascias and Soffits, just like any other components of a home, do not last forever. They can become tired and worn out over time which implies that you’ll have to replace them to prevent further damage. Getting this project completed can be quite costly, but it doesn’t have to be. Fitting soffits and fascias is very simple task which will leave you with both a modern and contemporary styling which requires little maintenance and also more savings. What’s more? You don’t have to worry about repainting the fascias and soffits on an annual basis, all you need to do is a gentle wipe down of the features with a damp cloth to have them look good.

    If you’re a competent DIYer and confident enough to pull off this task, then all the better. However, if otherwise, we’d strongly recommend you hire the services of a reliable contractor who can guarantee the best results for help. Here are the steps you can follow to fit your fascias and soffits.

    Fascias ( a 18mm fascia board)

    ✓ This is designed for a direct fix without a need for a timber substrate. Simply secure them directly to the rafters with the help of 2 x 65mm a4 stainless steel fixing nails per rafter.

    ✓ Ensure that the rafters are level.

    ✓ Cut the boards back 5mm per edge to enable expansion where any white corner trims, joint trims or angle trims is needed.

    ✓ Secure the guttering to all third rafter.

    Soffit ( 9mm soffit board)

    ✓ Ensure that the preservative treatment to the structural timber has dried out.

    ✓ Fix all utility boards of about 100mm to 605mm in width at a maximum of 60mm centres.

    ✓ If ventilation is needed, there are some soffits that are available in 150mm to 605mm widths and also provides the 10mm air gap needed for roof with a pitch above 15 degrees
