Years of withstanding the UK weather can leave your home exposed to damp, condensation and decay. But those all – important soffits, fascias, bargeboards, cladding boards, gutters and downpipes are easily forgotten – until something goes wrong!
Fascias are available in a range of styles and colours to suit your property and preference but when it comes to replacing fascias and soffits, choosing a good-looking roofline product is only half the story. Expert installation is vital too, in order to protect your home against damp!
Many companies just cover over the rotting existing timber fascia and soffits without actually repairing the underlying problems, this can only hide your problems temporarily. However, we have many years experience and can provide a complete replacement service that will protect your property for years and years, which is why we provide a 10 year guarantee on all roof line products.
We are ready to solve your roofline maintenance problems and enhance your the look of your roof.
A fascia is the horizontal "fascia board" which caps the end of rafters outside a building may be used to hold the rain gutter. The finished surface below the fascia and rafters is called the soffit or eave. It stops tiles on the roof from shifting, and should a replacement be required, we'll be there.
Replacing your timber roofline with upvc fascias and soffits will ensure that you home remains attractive for years to come.
A Soffit is the flat section underneath the fascia board, you can see it if you look up at the roof from ground level.
Some soffits are ventilated
In this example the soffit is fixed to the slope of the rafters. The fascias form the outer edge and have a groove in them to receive the soffit lining sheets.
Your soffit is structurally integral to your roof, so when and if it should get damaged you'll want a quality repair. We will fix and replace any soffit, no matter how big or small!
A rain gutter, also known as a (rain catcher) is a thin channel, or trough, forming the component of a roof system which collects and diverts rainwater away rom the roof. Needless to say, you don't want it to crack, rust or split, as this can damage both the fascia and soffit boards with moisture. JBK Roofing Services can fix all of these and more, and if you have a steel gutter we can offer our upgrading service?
We also provide a gutter cleaning service, over time, dirt, debris, leaves etc. can build up and block the gutter, should this occur then the rain water will find a way out, unfortunately this can lead to problems which can cause major problems if left. We recommend cleaning the guttering at least once a year. Contact us for advice or more information.
Downpipes
The last thing, you want is leaking or cracked downpipe. The rain water from the roof needs to divert from the gutters into the downpipes to flow into the drains. Any cracks or leaks can affect the brickwork on your property or even the foundations, over time. We can assess any damage on the guttering system and upgrade to a new upvc system, which has many advantages and is incorporated into many new houses in the uk.
