Fascia's & Guttering
The supporting fixtures and fittings to any roof system are as equally important as the roof itself, if the roof is to perform as desired.
Fascia & Guttering Specialists
When you think of a roof you immediately think about its surface, but no roof is complete without the appropriate installation of UPVC fascia, soffits, guttering and Leadwork.
These elements are not included for aesthetic benefit but instead, each presents a practical defence from water entering your property.
The fascia board has many important parts to play in completing a roofing system.
As well as acting as a blockade from water penetrating the roof deck and any internal areas, it also supports roof materials like tiles and acts as a fixing point for guttering.
Moreover, it offers a more pleasant visual finish to a roof installation, concealing much or the heavy-duty fabrics behind. Available in a wide range of sizes, textures and colours, you can give your property virtually any look you wish.
Fascia Boards
Soffits
Situated on the underside of the fascia and adjacent to the wall of the building, the principle purpose of the soffit is to protect roof rafters from the elements, preserving the performance longevity of the roof structure.
Often unnoticed due to its positioning, the soffit plays an integral part in allowing air to circulate in the roof cavity, diminishing the likelihood of decay to the roof materials.
Leadwork
While the roofing industry has developed a whole host of new materials to better defend against the elements, lead is still very prevalent and remains an extremely important component.
As well as offering cosmetic appeal, lead ‘flashings’ are generally incorporated within a roof system to create a waterproof seal where the roof meets the wall of a building, roof valley or around other penetrable areas like chimneys, pipes, windows and door openings.
