Fascias, soffits and guttering in Hagley

Planning your new roofline in Hagley

There's normally nothing to apply for. Bromsgrove District Council only needs to be involved if your home is listed, or if it's in a conservation area with extra controls on changes to the outside.

Scaffold may need to stand on a shared drive or neighbour's land, so it's worth a quick word next door.
Soffit boards on older homes in Hagley may contain asbestos cement and should be tested before removal.
Dry verge caps can replace cracked mortar at the gable ends at the same time.

Which option fits your home?

Gutters and downpipes

Replacing old cast iron, asbestos cement or tired plastic gutters with new uPVC in half-round, square or ogee profiles. New gutters are set to a proper fall towards the outlets, with downpipes connected to the existing drains or soakaway. This can be done on its own if the fascias are still in good condition.

Dry verge and eaves protection

Mortar-bedded gable verges often crack and drop. A dry verge system clips caps over the tile edges without mortar. At the eaves, a strip of eaves protection membrane and an over-fascia vent can replace perished felt and keep the roof ventilated. Both are often added when the roofline is being replaced.

Fascias, soffits and guttering in Hagley: common questions

Should I cap over my old fascias or replace them?

Full replacement is usually the better choice. Capping covers the old timber, so any rot carries on unseen and can loosen the gutter fixings over time. It's only suitable where the existing boards are completely sound, which is uncommon on older houses. We'll tell you which option suits your home at survey.

Do you cover Hagley?

Yes. Hagley (DY9) is about 8 miles from our West Bromwich base and inside the area we cover. Call 0800 088 6248 or send the form on this page to book a free survey.

What guarantee comes with new roofline?

The uPVC boards, gutters and fittings carry the manufacturer's guarantee, and the terms are set out in your quote. Coloured foils and white boards can have different terms, so check the details for the finish you choose. Keep the paperwork with your other house documents.

Who approves fascias, soffits and guttering in Hagley?

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