Fascias, soffits and guttering in Rushall

Which option fits your home?

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.

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.

Fascias, soffits and guttering in Rushall: common questions

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.

How do I book a survey in Rushall?

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.

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 Rushall?

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