Roofers Bestwood - Fascias and Soffits

What are fascias and soffits?

Fascias and soffit panels are the trim that fit around the base of a roof. Your fascias and soffits play a significant role in the effectiveness of your roof and they enhance the visual appeal of your property. These boards are often overlooked by property owners, which means any potential damage and wear and tear is not picked up. The two main materials that are used to construct fascia and soffit panels are hardwood and PVC. The lifetime of high quality hardwood fascia and soffit panels is roughly 10-15 years, although those manufactured from PVC typically last longer. In addition to PVC and timber, fascias and soffits commonly come available in aluminium, although these tend to be a more expensive alternative. At

What are the benefits of fascias and soffits?

Fascia and soffit panels provide additional support to the base of the roof. When installed correctly, the boards afford a fixture for the gutter system as well as giving an aesthetically pleasing look to the outside of your property. Fascia and soffit boards usually have an ventilation gaps which allow essential  aeriation to occur of your roof space. It is essential that a roof framework has sufficient ventilation to provide an escape route for condensation. Without any ventilation, rot to the timber rafters takes place and potential instability to the property’s internal structure occurs.
