Businesses in the fascia category supply, install, repair and replace the boards fitted along the edge of a roof. These boards cover the ends of roof rafters and provide a fixing point for guttering. Work may also include soffits, which close the underside of the roof overhang, and bargeboards fitted to the sloping edges of gable roofs. Materials commonly used include uPVC, timber and aluminium, with choices of colours and finishes to suit the property. Services can involve inspecting existing roofline components, removing damaged or deteriorated boards, fitting replacements and checking that adjoining gutters and roof edges are secure. Some businesses carry out repairs to individual sections, while others undertake full roofline renovations or install new components as part of roofing or building work. Customers may also find related services such as gutter replacement, cleaning, maintenance and the fitting of ventilation products to help reduce condensation in roof spaces.
