Service overview

## What we do, who it's for, and when to book it.

### What it is
Full replacement and upgrade of fascias and soffits in UPVC, including tear-off of old timber, felt support tray installation, and correct roofline ventilation.

### Who it's for
Homeowners with peeling paint, rotten timber fascias, sagging soffits, or a roofline that's simply overdue.

### When it's needed
When paint no longer holds, when timber is soft to a screwdriver, when guttering is pulling away from the fascia, or as part of a wider roofline refresh.

### Why it matters
Fascias and soffits protect the roof deck edge and the wall head from wind-driven rain. Failed roofline is one of the fastest ways to introduce hidden damp into a property.

The cost of leaving it

## What actually happens when this is put off.

### If it's ignored

- Rotten fascia loses grip on the gutter — the gutter sags, overflows, and soaks the wall below.
- Failed soffit ventilation traps moist air in the roof void, causing condensation, mould and rafter rot.
- Timber rot spreads into rafter feet and wall plates — repairs that cost multiples of the original replacement.

### Common mistakes we clean up after

- Overcladding rotten timber with UPVC — hides the problem, doesn't fix it, and rots on faster underneath.
- Skipping roofline ventilation to save an hour — creates a condensation problem where none existed.
- Cheap thin-gauge UPVC that yellows and warps within a few summers.

Specification detail

## The technical honest version.
'Fascias and soffits' is a small phrase for a system that quietly protects the edge of the roof from wind-driven rain and manages the roof-void ventilation. Get any part wrong and you introduce damp.

### Fascia board
The vertical board at the roof edge that carries the gutter. Must be securely fixed into sound rafter ends, not just skinned over rot.

### Soffit board
The horizontal board under the eaves. Needs continuous or spaced ventilation to keep the roof void breathing.

### Felt support tray (eaves protector)
A rigid tray that carries the felt over the fascia and into the gutter — stops the felt sagging and rotting the fascia. Non-negotiable on any replacement.

### Ventilation
Circular soffit vents or continuous ventilated soffit — sized to the roof void so warm moist air can escape.

### Colours and finishes
White, black, anthracite grey, rosewood and woodgrain foil finishes. Colour-through and foil-wrapped options — both fade-resistant when specified correctly.

### Bargeboards &amp; cladding tie-in
Bargeboards on gable ends and any UPVC cladding are usually best replaced at the same time — one visit, one scaffold, one clean finish.

Frequently asked

## Questions we answer at almost every survey.
How long does a fascia and soffit replacement take?+A typical semi is 1–2 days, a detached house 2–3 days, depending on access and any rot repairs needed.

Will you replace the guttering at the same time?+Yes — it's usually the ideal time, and often more cost-effective in a single visit.

Do you overclad or fully replace?+We fully replace. Overcladding hides rot and shortens the life of the new UPVC — not a compromise we'll make.

What colours are available?+Standard white, black, anthracite grey, rosewood, and various woodgrain foil finishes. We'll show samples at survey.

Is scaffolding included?+Access is priced into the quote — you won't get a separate scaffold bill on completion.

Is the roofline guaranteed?+Yes — a 10-year workmanship guarantee from GNB Roofing, plus the UPVC manufacturer's product warranty.

Do you cover the whole of Norfolk, Suffolk &amp; Cambridgeshire?+Yes. We're based in Norwich (NR5) and work across Norfolk, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire — including all the Norwich suburbs (Thorpe St Andrew, Sprowston, Hellesdon, Costessey, Taverham, Drayton, Cringleford), Wymondham, Dereham, Thetford, Great Yarmouth and King's Lynn. If you're on the edge of that area, phone and ask — we don't charge to travel to quote.

Do you charge call-out fees?+No. Surveys and quotes are free, and there are no call-out fees. You get a fixed written price before any work starts — no day-rates, no hidden extras.

Who will I actually deal with?+Neil, the owner, personally quotes and runs every job. You won't be handed to a call centre or a subcontracted crew. One point of contact from first call to final sign-off.
