Why Fascias and Soffits Fail

Timber fascias and soffits rot when rainwater gets behind them or the paint fails. Rot spreads quickly and can reach the roof timbers if left. Gutters hang from the fascia, so a rotten board eventually means sagging gutters and water running where it should not.

UPVC Boards Instead of Timber

UPVC fascias and soffits need no painting and do not rot. They come in several colours, including white, cream and anthracite, and can be fitted directly over sound timber or as a full replacement. They are a popular choice on homes across Ramsgate because they cut out the repainting cycle.

Ventilation Through the Soffit

Soffits need ventilation slots or vents to let air into the roof space. Without them, condensation can build up in the loft and damage the timbers and insulation. We fit ventilated soffits as standard so your roof has the airflow it needs.

About us

Fascia and soffit replacement is a tidy job when it is done well and a frustrating one when it is not. We remove the old boards carefully, check the roof timbers and barge boards behind them, then fit the new UPVC neatly. The gutters go back on last, properly secured to the new fascia.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my fascias need replacing in Ramsgate?

Signs include paint peeling in large patches, soft or spongy wood when you press the board, gutters pulling away from the house, or gaps between the fascia and the soffit. If you can see rot or feel it move, the board needs replacing.

Can you fit UPVC fascias over my existing timber ones?

Sometimes, if the timber underneath is still sound. We check the existing boards first. Fitting over rotten timber just covers the problem, so we only cap over boards that are dry and solid. If they are not, we remove and replace them properly.

Do I need new gutters when replacing fascias?

Not always, but it is often worth it. The gutters have to come off to replace the fascias, so fitting new ones at the same time saves a second job. If your gutters are in good condition, we can refit them to the new fascias.
