Fascias and soffits are an important element of most guttering systems. Not only do they provide support for the guttering itself, they improve the aesthetics of your house by creating a clean and neat finish to the roofline. Fascias or fascia boards are horizontal planks that sit on the edge of the rafters of your roofing, closing the end of the roof and providing the support that the guttering is mounted to. Soffits run beneath the fascia boards, closing the gap and protecting the underside of the rafter ends. Soffits are usually ventilated to permit the roof timbers to breathe and also to prevent any moisture buildup. Box ends are utilised where the horizontal fascia meets the diagonal barge board that runs up the edge of the roof profile, presenting a neat finish to an otherwise ugly join.
Fascias and soffits are usually produced from either timber or UPVC. Wood fascias and soffits are typical on older properties and continue to be popular. However, timber fascias and soffits can rot with time and expose the rest of the guttering to problems or leaks. More recently, UPVC fascias and soffits have been increasingly popular as they provide a long lasting alternative that will not rot. UPVC fascias and soffits are available in a number of colours to suit any house, although white is very popular as it provides a traditional aesthetic. Fascias are additionally available in ogee moulded designs, where feature grooves are integrated. These can have a striking effect.
How much replacing your soffits and fascias costs depends on several things, including the size of your property, the materials you use and where you live. However, the cost of a soffits and fascias project tends to range between £1,300 and £2,000 for most people.

Didcot is a railway town and civil parish in the county of Oxfordshire. Despite the fact that it is a parish, it has the standing of a town, being overseen by the Didcot Town Council. The town was a part of Berkshire prior to its shift to Oxfordshire in 1974, as a result of a boundary change defined in the 1972 Local Government Act, and it became a part of the newly-formed South Oxfordshire region. Having an area of 3.27 square miles and a population total of 25 140, it comprises the largest town in the new district. Didcot has actually been labelled as one of 3 primary development regions in Oxfordshire, due to such developments as the 'Ladygrove' commencing in the late 1980s. The 'Ladygrove' has involved building work in the north and east of Didcot's railway line on marshland from the late 1980s, and the development is on task to double the amount of dwellings in the town. It is predicted that the town will continue to develop thanks to the decision of a planning enquiry in 2006 that the building and construction of a 3200 home project to the west of the town will begin after the conclusion of the 'Ladygrove' development. Didcot is widely recognised for its power station, railway and train junction. The town was of strategic significance to military logistics throughout World War One and World War Two because of Didcot's junction of the roads to London, Bristol, Oxford and to Southampton via the Didcot, Newbury and Southampton Railway (DN&S). In 2015, Didcot was the very first existing town labelled as a Garden Town, which is a status that provides financing to support sustainable and environmentally-friendly town development for 15 years. For all your home upgrades ensure to make use of trustworthy experts in Norfolk to make particular of quality.

You can paint your soffits and fascias if they’re made of wood. In fact, it’s a good idea to do this every few years, as it can help to preserve them and keep them looking smart.
You can choose what you paint your soffits and fascias with by deciding what kind of look you want to achieve. You can stain them if you want to maintain a natural wood look, or use an exterior gloss or satin paint if you want to change their colour.
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
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.
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.
We can help you get more Soffits and Fascias work and boost your business.
