Soffits & Fascias in Lochgilphead


Fascias and soffits are an important element of the majority of guttering systems. Not only do they offer support for the guttering itself, they enhance the aesthetics of your building by creating a clean and tidy finish to the roofline. Fascias or fascia boards are horizontal planks that sit on the edge of the rafters of your roof, closing the end of the roof and creating the support that the guttering is fastened to. Soffits run beneath the fascia boards, closing the gap and protecting the underside of the rafter ends. Soffits are generally ventilated to help the roof timbers to breathe and also to stop any moisture accumulation. Box ends are utilised where the horizontal fascia meets the diagonal barge board that runs up the edge of the roof profile, supplying a neat finish to an otherwise ugly join.

 

Fascias and soffits are typically created from either timber or UPVC. Timber fascias and soffits are common on older properties and continue to be popular. However, wooden fascias and soffits can rot over 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 robust option that won't rot. UPVC fascias and soffits are available in an array of colours to complement any home, although white is very popular as it offers a traditional appearance. Fascias are additionally available in ogee moulded designs, where feature grooves are included. These can have an attractive effect.

    FAQs

    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.

    Which material is best for soffits and fascias?

    In general uPVC is used for soffits and fascias as it is very strong and durable. It also requires very little maintenance. However, wood can be used and is still popular on listed properties as it retains the original material. Older and listed buildings may require more traditional materials to be used.

    how much to repair soffit and fascia?

    The soffit and fascia is the outdoor underside region of your roof which would need to be repaired or replaced when it’s in a critical condition. Your soffit and fascia may actually require more frequent replacement or repair depending on the material that the soffit or fascia uses. If you notice your soffit and fascia needs to be replaced, then you’d probably also like to know how much it going to cost. Well, you’ve come to the right place! The price to replace a soffit and fascia can vary significantly which can be a bit annoying when you’re trying to calculate the overall cost you’ll be expected to pay.

    The price of a soffit and fascia is based on the following variables:

    ✓ The materials you wish to use for the new fascia, soffit and guttering

    ✓ The type of the property. For instance, semi detached houses may come at a lower price due to the less roof space they require when compared to their counterparts, which can reduce the cost of replacement.

    ✓ If you’re going to also replace the gutter at the same time will also increase the cost of replacement.

    ✓ The current overall condition of the roof. For example, if you also have broken or slipping roof tiles, the soffits and fascias can be more difficult to replace, hence, increasing the cost of the project.

    Generally, the average cost of fitting soffits and fascias as replacement options for your homes will range between £1200 - £3,000. What’s more? Soffits and fascias normally have a per metre cost. The average price of soffits and fascias per metre can range between £100 to £130 when you opt for a white uPVC option.

    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
