What Are Fascias and Soffits?
Fascias and soffits are fixed roofline components installed around the perimeter of a building. They form part of the roof edge and play an important role in supporting tiles, protecting structural timbers, and managing airflow at eaves level.
Fascias
Fascias form the vertical face of the fascia roof edge. They are used to:
Support the lower row of roof tiles
Provide fixing points for guttering
Protect rafter ends from weather exposure
Soffits
Soffits are fitted beneath the fascia and help to:
Close the underside of the roof overhang
Protect exposed roof timbers
Regulate airflow into the roof space
Together, these components protect the roof structure but do not make the roof watertight.
Core Reasons Homeowners & Businesses Choose Us For

Why Correct Roofline Installation Matters
Correct installation of roof soffits and fascias is essential for long-term roof performance. Covering existing boards without inspection can allow decay to continue unseen.
Proper installation helps to:
-
Support tiles along the eaves
-
Protect structural timbers
-
Assist with controlled ventilation
-
Reduce the risk of progressive damage
Roofline work should always be considered alongside the wider roof condition.

uPVC Soffits and Fascias Installation
Most modern replacements use uPVC soffits and fascias due to their durability and low maintenance requirements. uPVC fascia boards do not rot, warp, or require painting, making them suitable for exposed environments.
Our uPVC fascias and soffits installation service typically includes:
-
Removal of failed timber boards
-
Inspection of rafter ends and fixing points
-
Installation of new uPVC roofline boards
-
Secure refitting of components
Where required, projects can also include fascias, soffits and guttering upgrades.
2
Ventilation and Roofline Health
Soffits play an important role in ventilation by allowing airflow at the eaves level. During roofline work, airflow is reviewed based on the roof’s design and condition.
Ventilation may be recommended where:
-
Condensation is visible on felt or timbers
-
Insulation shows signs of trapped moisture
-
Airflow at the roof edge is restricted
Where appropriate, ventilated soffits or discreet fascia vents are installed.

How Soffits and Fascias Are Installed
Installing soffits and fascias correctly requires structural inspection and precise fixing at the roof edge. This is not a cosmetic task and should always be carried out as part of a properly assessed roofline installation.
An efficient process includes:
-
Inspecting the fascia roof edge and rafter ends
-
Removing damaged boards
-
Reinforcing fixing points where required
-
Installing new components securely
-
Checking alignment and overall roofline condition
Our team carries out soffits and fascias work across Lowestoft and surrounding areas, ensuring roofline installations are completed correctly first time.
When Soffits and Fascias Are Not Enough
In some cases, roof edge issues are caused by wider roofing problems rather than the roofline itself.
Additional work may be required where:
-
Water ingress is coming from damaged coverings
-
Structural timber repairs are needed
-
Flat roof junctions have failed
Where appropriate, pitched roofing or flat roofing services may be recommended.
