However well-constructed your roof is, it’s important that the elements comprising your roofline are equally up to the task of protecting your property from the elements. Your roofline is made-up of two important components: the fascia and the soffit. The fascia is a board mounted where the roof meets your outer walls, while the soffit is tucked under it. Together, they have the vital tasks of carrying the guttering, while sealing an otherwise vulnerable section of your home or place of work against moisture and pests, without sacrificing the pre-requisite ventilation that needs to be in place.
Nicholson Roofing, alongside its range of pitched and flat roofing services, handles soffit and fascia replacement and repair. Some of the most common issues that might require the attention of a professional team of roofers like our own, include the warping, rotting and splintering of timber fascias and soffits; this once popular material has since been superseded by uPVC, a more modern and durable material which is immune to all three of the prior problems. Other issues we regularly encounter around our principal service areas of Beckenham, Bromley, Chislehurst and West Wickham include accidental damage, improper installation or a lack of structural security due to general wear-and-tear over the years.
In addition to the prior functional items that fascias and soffits are tasked with, they should look good. After all, they’re a visible aspect of your property and thus contribute to kerb appeal – or lack thereof! That’s why our roofers give clients so many options in regards to soffit and fascia replacement, sourcing products including plain and woodgrain boards in your choice of colour and finish. This ensures that property owners around Beckenham, Bromley, Chislehurst and West Wickham can match their roofline to other architectural elements present in their property.
