Fascias, soffits and guttering in Kenilworth

What should you know before starting in Kenilworth?

There's normally nothing to apply for. Warwick 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.

Gutters should fall steadily towards the outlets so water doesn't sit and overflow.
Bats and nesting birds are protected by law, so roofline work pauses if either is found.
Dry verge caps can replace cracked mortar at the gable ends at the same time.

Options to consider in Kenilworth

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.

Full replacement

Old timber fascias, soffits and bargeboards are removed, rafter feet are repaired where needed, and new uPVC boards are fixed directly to the roof timbers. This is the most reliable option because it deals with any hidden rot and gives proper fixings for the gutters. It's the method we recommend for most homes.

How do I book a survey in Kenilworth?

Send the form on this page, use the guide-price tool or call 0800 088 6248 free. We'll ask a few questions about your new roofline and arrange a time to visit.

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.

Will I need permission from the council in Kenilworth?

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