Our recent work, taking care of rotten wood and putting in new gutters.

Here at Embassy Guttering we have seen rotten wood and badly ruined gutters. Here is how we step by step remove old gutters, add new aluminium gutters and add our facia and soffit.

First of all, what is facia and soffit. A lot of people in Dublin don’t know what facia and soffit is so therefore cant take care of it properly or replace it. A strong clean facia and soffit can greatly improve the look of your home. Check out the video below to see exactly where your facia and soffit is.

Recently we were working on a house with very bad rotten wood. The wood had also been covered by PVC which made the house worse. The rotten wood had spread all over the external area of the home. The wood had to be completely removed and gutters replaced. New facia and soffit was also installed. Take a look at our video and make sure you prevent your home from rotten wood.

Before replacing old gutters, we must tear down the old ones. Your builder must be fully qualified before taking down gutters. Check out our video below of our builders removing old gutters.

We use our machine on site for creating gutters and measuring them to size. The customer can see their gutters as they are being made and we can confirm they are satisfied with the results. Here you can see our machine in action before adding the gutter to it’s new home.

Lastly putting up aluminium gutters with new PVC fascia and soffit. The house already looks so more attractive, clean and clear of any rot!

Working on some damaged gutters in Leixlip earlier today – we offer services including repairing and replacing gutters.

A house in Tallaght needed repaired gutters and new fascia installed. The wood was rotten and dangerously breaking apart from out of date materials and whether damage. We repaired the gutters and replaced the wood quickly and easily.

embassyguttering — The facia and soffits are the two most important parts of the roof and we managed to instal new ones along with new gutters before it led to any damage such as leaks or costly repairs.

As you can see from the photos, the old wood being used with rusty nails is severely damaged. The new facia, soffit and gutters make a huge difference to the appearance of your home.

Matching your fascia, soffit & gutters to your windows

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.

Embassy Guttering offer a wide range of guttering solutions so that you have the most aesthetically pleasing style applied to your home, while also ensuring you have only the highest quality materials.

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.

At Embassy Guttering, we offer high-quality PVC fascia and soffit in Dublin, in white, brown and black to match in with your home’s existing features. The lightweight PVC is incredibly durable, water-resistant and will never free over or rust, making it ideal for Ireland’s unpredictable weather! It is also much cheaper than some other guttering materials, ensuring your home is maintained with the highest quality materials at an affordable price.

Take a look at the “after” situation of the house shown above, with its brand new fascia and soffit installed!
