Fascias, soffits and guttering in Studley

Planning your new roofline in Studley

There's normally nothing to apply for. Stratford-on-Avon 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.

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

Which option fits your home?

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.

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.

What does your new roofline cost in Studley?

Guide prices start at £450 and run to £5,500 depending on size and specification. Full uPVC fascias, soffits, gutters and downpipes on a three-bed semi, front and back, with scaffold: around £2,200–£3,200.

Your questions answered

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.
