Box ends are the part of the roofline
at the bottom of a gable end. To visually
get the best results for your new
roofline it is important to use special
box end section. The box ends can
be fitted with this section in one
piece instead of three pieces, which
is the alternative approach. more... |

Replacement fascias and
soffits are the features that are most
often overlooked by people as they do
not inspire the same glamour or hold the
same attractiveness as windows, doors
and conservatories. Of course this is
because the fascia boards are not as immediately
visible as the other features mentioned,
but they are nevertheless a particularly
important aspect of the home and they
need careful attention if your home is
to look its best and drain most efficiently.
As with all our other products fascias
and soffits (more specifically fascia
and soffit boards) are made from PVCU
and so do not rot or flake the way a wooden
fascia would. Also fascia boards have
a much longer lifespan than their wooden
counterparts and so will provide you with
security and peace of mind for years to
come. Finally they save you money on repeatedly
painting your home to improve the appearance
and can even add value to your property.
You can view examples of
our work on fascias and soffits in the
gallery, and you only need to go out onto
the street to compare the aesthetic and
physical quality of our work with that
on other houses whose fascias and soffits
are derived from timber and will eventually
decay. Fascias and soffits, or as they
are increasingly being called, replacement
roofline systems, instantly but subtly
improve the look of a property while providing
a cost effective maintenance free solution
to traditional timbers.
As with all of our other
products, we appreciate that there is
an aesthetic aspect to be considered and
so our fascia boards used in the roofline
systems are available in wood-grain and
coloured finishes to meet individual taste
and complement the look of your home.
Our perspective on the issue is that it
is always better to have full replacement
of timber fascias and soffits rather than
merely covering them up as doing the latter
has severely negative aesthetic repercussions.
Therefore our specification includes that
all timbers should be replaced with heavy
duty fascia board, among other things
(see section on replacement roofline system).
Replacement fascia boards do not require
backing timber, but simply nail onto joists,
and while cover boards can be effective,
as has been mentioned the aesthetics can
often be displeasing and the lifespan,
while still ten years, is low compared
to that of completely new replacement
boards.
Also part of our specification
is a possible replacement of the entire
property’s rainwater system which
is available in round, square or ogee
style and can be coloured white, black,
brown or caramel. Furthermore, right now
on all replacement roofline orders placed
you will receive free guttering and down
pipes in a choice of colours and styles.
Box ends are the part of
the roofline at the bottom of a gable
end and they are important to get the
best results visually for your new or
replacement fascias and soffits. Box end
section is a double-edged fascia board
that is often twice the size of a standard
fascia board. If all this is getting slightly
technical, you can see examples of everything
discussed here in the various other sections
regarding fascias, soffits, fascia boards
and everything else to do with roofline
systems.
One aspect of our business
we will unfortunately be unable to give
you an online quote for is replacement
fascias and soffits (roofline systems)
because one of the key points about installing
replacement fascia and soffit boards and
all the work that goes with roofline systems
is that access is needed to the roofline,
so to get an accurate quote an actual
site visit is required. To gain access
one of two methods can be utilised. The
first is our capable staging system which
is erected on site by the installers,
although this method has its limitations.
The other method is to use scaffolding,
which is less limited but does have an
effect on the quote you will be given.
For more information on this see the ‘access’
section of replacement fascias and soffits
on this site.
Prices are available
in the ‘price examples’ section
of this website, to give you some guidelines
as to what fascias and soffits and the
variations of fascia boards and every
other aspect associated with fascias and
soffits are likely to cost, and the difference
scaffolding is likely to make to the quote.
