The fascia is the board the gutter is fixed to, and the soffit is the underside that vents the roof. When the fascia rots, the gutter drops, and the water starts going where it should not.
We replace them in uPVC or aluminium, and we confirm the condition of the roof timbers behind them before anything new goes up.
Signs the roofline has failed
- Paint flaking off the fascia boards
- Soft or crumbling timber when you press it
- The gutter pulling away from the wall or sagging
- Water tracking behind the gutter down the wall
- Birds or insects getting into the roof space through the soffit
- Staining on the brickwork directly below the roofline
Water travels. The stain on the ceiling is rarely directly under the hole, which is why we survey the whole roof rather than only the spot you can see.
uPVC or aluminium
Both are low-maintenance. The choice is really about budget against lifespan and looks.
- uPVC — suits most Oxford homes, never needs painting, 20–30 years
- Aluminium — stronger, 30–40 years, and better for contemporary properties
- Rotten timber roof timbers are repaired before new boards are fitted
- Vented soffit where the roof needs airflow

Fascias & soffits questions
Still unsure? Call 07468 429000 and describe it. We will tell you whether it needs looking at.
Most residential properties complete in two to three days. Bungalows can finish in a day; larger detached homes take three to four. Weather can affect the timescale for safety reasons, and we keep you informed throughout.
uPVC suits most Oxford homes — durable, never needs painting, 20–30 years. Aluminium costs more but gives 30–40 years and is better suited to contemporary properties.
Yes, when the damage is genuinely localised. If only a few boards have gone, replacing those costs less than a full replacement. If several areas have deteriorated, full replacement usually works out better value.
Not always, but we usually recommend it. They work as one system, so if one has failed the other is often showing wear. Doing both at once saves the access costs and gives a consistent appearance and a single guarantee.
No. We use appropriate access and take care during removal and installation. Any roof timbers that need repair are fixed before the new boards go up, and all penetrations are sealed.
Generally no — replacing fascias and soffits counts as maintenance. Listed buildings and properties in conservation areas may have restrictions, and we will tell you at the survey if that applies.
