Professional soffit and fascia repair and replacement service. We fix damaged roofline boards, replace rotten timber, or install UPVC cladding to protect your roof structure and improve appearance.
Soffit and fascia boards protect roof timbers from weather and give your roofline a finished appearance. Damaged boards let water in causing rot, and look unsightly. Our repair and replacement service restores protection and appearance.
We work with timber or UPVC materials, match existing styles, and ensure proper ventilation is maintained. Work includes fascia boards, soffit boards, and associated trim. Access often requires scaffolding which we include in quotes.

What to Expect
Step 1: Inspection and Quote We inspect roofline condition, identify damaged areas, and check roof timber condition. We provide a detailed quote explaining work needed and material recommendations.
Step 2: Access and Removal Scaffolding is erected if needed. Old boards are removed carefully, and roof timber condition is checked. Any rotten timber is treated or replaced.
Step 3: Installation and Finishing New soffit and fascia boards are installed with proper ventilation. Guttering is refitted, and scaffolding is removed. We ensure the roofline is weatherproof and looks smart.
🔧 DIY Tips
Inspect soffits annually for damage - early repair prevents bigger problems. Paint timber soffits every 5-7 years to extend life. Don't block soffit ventilation as it prevents roof space condensation. For roofline work above single storey, scaffolding and professional work is safer and achieves better results.
Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.
Good to Know
Rotten roof timbers underneath may need treating or replacing - we identify this during removal. UPVC comes in various colours including woodgrain effects. Ventilated soffit maintains roof space airflow which prevents condensation. Birds sometimes nest in damaged soffits - we check and advise on prevention.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does soffit and fascia work cost?
Costs vary significantly based on property size, material choice (UPVC or timber), access requirements, and extent of work. Small repairs start around £300, full replacements cost much more. We provide detailed quotes after inspection.
Should I choose UPVC or timber soffit?
UPVC is low maintenance and durable, good for most homes. Timber suits period properties or conservation areas. We advise based on your property type and preferences.
How long does soffit replacement take?
Soffit and fascia work typically takes 1-3 days depending on property size and extent of replacement. We'll provide an accurate timeframe when quoting.
Do you need scaffolding for soffit work?
Most two-storey properties need scaffolding for safe access. Bungalows can often be done from ladders. Scaffolding costs are included in our quotes where needed.
