THE NUMBER ONE ROOFERS IN LONDON YOU CAN TRUST
Roofers London - Fascias and Soffits
Fascia and soffits boards are the supporting components that are fixed around the base of a roof. These roof related fixtures are regularly overlooked by inexperienced property owners. Fascia and soffits panels are predominately manufactured from two classifications of materials hardwood and PVC. The lifespan of high end hard timber fascias is approximately 10 years. Fascia boards manufactured from PVC last somewhat longer.
Fascia and soffit panels enclose the bottom of the roofing structure. A properties guttering is fixed to the fascia boards. Aeriation for a roof structure is vital to prevent condensation from occurring. Fascia panels provide this important ventilation. The absence of any aeriation can lead to timber rot and deterioration of the rafters caused by internal moisture. This could potentially have a negative impact on the structure and foundations of the property. Here at Roofing London we advise building owners to survey the base of their roof. This should be carried out from the ground, preferably with binoculars for health and safety. When reviewing the trim of your roof, determine if there are any signs of decay and wear and tear. Look out for any splits, cracks, crooked edges poor fittings and discolouration. Any damage should be repaired as soon as possible to prevent further decay to your roofing structure.
