Soffit and Fascia Replacements in Brighton, East Preston and all Sussex Areas | Located in Worthing
A well-functioning roof features many different elements, working in harmony to keep your property safe, warm and dry. Two of these elements are fascias and soffits, which protect the roofline of properties around Arundel, Brighton, East Preston, Woodingdean and all Sussex areas including our hometown of Worthing. Keeping the roofline in good year-round condition is a commitment that JAH Roofing Specialists has made as a dependable roofing company.
We achieve this through repairs, and with soffit and fascia replacements.
Our company recommends the use of UPVC fascias and soffits due to their durability, affordability and the fact they are immune to many of the issues suffered by older timber fixtures, such as rotting, warping and splintering. If a home has a timber roofline in place, we undertake UPVC soffit and fascia replacements that match up to the roof and property, and we professionally install them to ensure a perfect functionality that will protect home interiors.
What are Fascias and Soffits?
Fascias and soffits are important components in the roofline of a building. The fascia is a long, straight board running along the lower edge of the roof, and it supports the bottom row of tiles and the guttering. The soffit is also a board that runs horizontally beneath the fascias, providing a roofline with a finished look that is impressive while protecting the underside from the elements.
Together, the fascias and soffits help to protect the roof and the walls of your property from water damage, preventing moisture from seeping into roofing structures. They also help to improve the appearance of properties, creating a clean, finished look along the roofline. Soffit and fascia replacements are completed less for utility, and more for the sake of a building’s aesthetics.
In addition to their protective and aesthetic functions, fascias and soffits also play a role in ventilation. They allow air to circulate through the roof and the attic, preventing moisture build-up and helping to regulate the temperatures inside the building. This can help to prevent issues such as mould and mildew.
It also improves energy efficiency by reducing the need for air conditioning.
Considering the way the climate is said to be changing, restoring the rooflines of Arundel, Brighton, East Preston, Woodingdean, Worthing and Sussex homes is an essential choice and one that makes soffit and fascia replacements key.
When Should I Consider Replacing Fascias and Soffits?
Consider investing in soffit and fascia replacements if you start to notice signs of damage or wear and tear. This takes on the form of rot, cracks, holes or a certain amount of discoloration. You should further consider soffit and fascia replacements if you are experiencing any issues with water damage or pests entering your home through the roofline and take up home in the loft space.
If your soffits and fascias are made from wood and have not been replaced for several years, have them inspected to ensure they are in good condition. Replacing your soffits and fascias with newer, more modern materials may be a good option, so please give us a call to arrange a survey and consultation.
