Choices to weigh up in Aldridge

Cap-over boards

Thin uPVC boards are fixed over the existing timber. Capping is cheaper, but only suitable where the old timber is completely sound, and any rot underneath carries on out of sight. We'll tell you honestly at survey whether your boards are good enough for capping, though full replacement is usually better value over time.

Colours and finishes

White uPVC is the most common and cheapest finish. Black, anthracite grey, brown and woodgrain foils are available for fascias, soffits and gutters, and can be matched to windows and doors. Coloured boards cost more, but they suit darker windows and some period houses better.

What does your new roofline cost in Aldridge?

Expect to budget between £450 and £5,500 depending on size and specification in Aldridge. Full uPVC fascias, soffits, gutters and downpipes on a three-bed semi, front and back, with scaffold: typically £2,200–£3,200.

Will it be noisy or disruptive?

There's some noise while the old boards come off and the new ones are fixed, but all work is outside, so you won't need to move furniture or clear rooms. The scaffold may block part of the drive for a few days. Gutters are off for a short time only, and we reconnect them as quickly as possible.

Will I need permission from the council in Aldridge?

Not normally. The exception is a listed building, where Walsall Council would need to give listed building consent first.
