Fascia Replacement

The fascia is a board that runs along the roofline and acts as a finishing edge or trim that connects to the ends of the rafters and trusses. Fascias are visible from the exterior of the home and typically hold gutters in place. Most fascia boards are wooden, but they can also be made from vinyl, aluminum and plastic. The primary function of the fascia is to protect the roof and the interior of the home from moisture by blocking its entrance. Fascias also play an aesthetic role, because they create a smooth, even appearance along the roof’s edge.

House fascia can be vulnerable to damage if water gets behind the board. Primary causes include clogged gutters and improper shingle overhang. Our biggest concern is when this wood starts to get soft it is easy for wildlife to gain access into the home.
