Which options suit homes in Kidderminster?
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.

Questions about fascias, soffits and guttering in Kidderminster
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.
Which postcodes in Kidderminster do you work in?
We cover DY10 and the streets around them. If you're on the edge of Kidderminster, neighbouring Stourport-on-Severn and Bewdley are covered too.
How long does it take to replace fascias and guttering?
Most terraces and semis take one to three days once the scaffold is up, and detached houses three to five. Rafter repairs, eaves membrane and dry verges can add time, as can extra bays or gables. Light rain doesn't stop most of the work, but high winds can, because handling long boards at height isn't safe in a gale.
Will I need permission from the council in Kidderminster?
Not normally. The exception is a listed building, where Wyre Forest District Council would need to give listed building consent first.
