Your fascia, soffit and gutters are integral parts to protecting your home from adverse weather conditions. They will run along the edges of your roof and down the side of your home, and you’ll want to ensure that they look good as well as function properly. Choosing the right colour for your fascia, soffit and gutters is key here – you will want them to coordinate well with your home’s existing colour scheme, without standing out too much. The most popular choice is generally to choose a neutral or low-key shade for your trim that blends in seamlessly with your home’s exterior colour scheme. The other option is to look at your window treatments, and consider matching your fascia, soffit and gutters to your windows!

Your windows’ trim colour is likely to blend in subtly already with your exterior colour scheme, and many people will choose a neutral theme for these, such as white, black, grey or cream. Other homeowners will choose a colour that provides a delightful contrast to their home’s exterior walls. A traditional-style cottage with white walls may look incredible with a rich shade of red or green along the window trim, and matching your fascia, soffit and gutters to this colour could look equally eyecatching.

Fascia and Soffit – When to Repair & Replace

Fascia and Soffits | Dublin

Your roof is made up many different components which work together to ensure your home is protected. The fascia and soffit boards sit at the very bottom of a roof or around the perimeter of the roof. The fascia boards offer structural support to your guttering, preventing moisture from getting into your house, while the soffits are placed under the eaves of the roof to provide ventilation to your attic. Both elements can also provide protection from pests. Fascias and soffits are two of the most important parts of the roof, and it’s essential to ensure they are kept in good condition.

While cleaning your gutters out regularly (a couple of times per year) can help to keep them in good condition, the fascias and soffits as well as other elements of your roof will eventually show their age and require replacing. It’s important to keep an eye out for signs of mould, as well as warping in the boards or deterioration. Leaky gutters, frost or moisture in the attic and pest infestations are all signs that your fascia and soffit may need to be replaced.

If you spot any of the above signs, contact a guttering specialist immediately. This is especially important if your home has wooden fascia, as the wood may become rotten and lead to leaks, damaging the rafters of your home. Embassy Guttering provide a professional and efficient service to inspect and repair or replace your fascia and soffit boards. Our expert staff will review the condition of your fascia and soffits and provide you with a cost-effective quotation. This efficient service will ensure your roof is maintained to the highest standards, saving you thousands in repair costs in the long-run.

The lightweight PVC is incredibly durable, water-resistant and will never free over or rust, making it ideal for Ireland’s unpredictable weather!
