Fascias and soffits are installed to protect your home or business from the weather. They prevent damp getting into the brickwork and rot from affecting roof beams, rafters and joists. Water ingress/damage is one of the most destructive forces that can affect any property.Once damp has found its way into a home it can be very difficult to stop and highly expensive to treat and repair. Rainwater that has penetrated timber fascias through holes or cracks in the paintwork will rot the wood and spread throughout the board. Traditional timber fascias and soffits need regular maintenance. They should be painted, varnished or otherwise treated every four to five years to maintain water-resistance. If this is not maintained and the protective barrier of the paint/varnish fails you risk water ingress and damp working its way into your home.
