Fascias, soffits and guttering in Tamworth

What should you know before starting in Tamworth?

Replacing fascias and soffits doesn't normally need building regulations approval, but roof ventilation must be kept.
Bats and nesting birds are protected by law, so roofline work pauses if either is found.

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.

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.

Questions about fascias, soffits and guttering in Tamworth

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.

Which postcodes in Tamworth do you work in?

We cover B77, B79 and the streets around them. If you're on the edge of Tamworth, neighbouring Fazeley and Polesworth 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 Tamworth?

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