Fascias are the long boards fixed along the edge of your roof, just behind the guttering. Soffits are the boards fitted underneath the fascias, closing off the gap between the wall and the roof. Together they protect your roof timbers from water, pests and the elements — and they form a major part of your home's exterior appearance.
Old timber fascias and soffits are one of the most common causes of damp problems in UK homes. Replacing them with quality uPVC is one of the most cost-effective improvements you can make.

Quality uPVC fascias and soffits typically last 25–40 years with minimal maintenance. They do not rot, crack or require painting like timber.
In some cases uPVC can be fitted over existing timber, but it is generally better practice to remove old timber first so any rot or damage can be identified and treated. We always inspect the underlying structure before fitting new roofline products.
