Soffits & Fascias in Helensburgh


Fascias and soffits are an important element of most guttering systems. Not only do they provide support for the guttering itself, they improve the style of your building by creating a clean and tidy finish to the roofline. Fascias or fascia boards are horizontal planks that sit on the edge of the rafters of your roof, closing the end of the roof and offering the support that the guttering is mounted to. Soffits run underneath the fascia boards, closing the gap and protecting the underside of the rafter ends. Soffits are generally ventilated to help the roof timbers to breathe and to prevent any moisture accumulation. Box ends are utilised where the horizontal fascia meets the diagonal barge board that runs up the edge of the roof profile, giving a neat finish to an otherwise ugly join.

 

Fascias and soffits are commonly made from either wood or UPVC. Wood fascias and soffits are usually on older properties and continue to be popular. However, wooden fascias and soffits can rot as time passes and expose the rest of the guttering to problems or leaks. More recently, UPVC fascias and soffits have been increasingly popular as they give you a robust alternative that won't rot. UPVC fascias and soffits can be purchased in a variety of colours to fit any home, although white is popular as it has a traditional appearance. Fascias are also available in ogee moulded designs, where feature grooves are incorporated. These can have a striking effect.

Helensburgh

The town of Helensburgh is in Argyll and Bute in Scotland. It sits on the north shore of the Firth of Clyde and the eastern coast of the passageway to the Gareloch. Although historically in the Dumbarton District, it was re-allocated under the local government reorganisation that happened in 1996. Up until 1975, it was an area in former Dunbartonshire. Referring to the 2001 Census, the town has a permanent population of around 14626. Helensburgh was established in 1776 largely because of the building and construction of health spa baths on the site of Ardencaple Castle, which went back to about 1600, by Sir James Colquhoun of Luss. Very soon after its growth, a seaside resort town was developed on the east of the spa in the style of Edinburgh New Town, which was named after his spouse Helen. A ferry service operated across the Firth of Clyde to Greenock, which efficiently and effectively brought in locals who could commute from jobs there. In time, the town emerged as a favourite place of residence for shipping tycoons and tobacco merchants from Glasgow. The success of the town is illustrated by the fact that at one point in the 18th century, the town was the home of one quarter of Britain's millionaires. In the present day, the town is mostly a commuter town for Glasgow. It also works as a main shopping centre for surrounding locations, and travelers continue to be attracted to the seaside resort. The seafront consists of an indoor swimming pool, an esplanade walk, and a variety of shops, cafés and bars. For all of your home upgrades, make certain to make use of trusted specialists in Helensburgh to make certain of quality.

    FAQs

    how much to replace soffit and fascia?

    It may be shocking a whole lot of people would not be able to point out fascias and soffits on a building despite the fact that they’re an essential part of the roof. To give you an idea, they’re simply used to cover the roof beams’ ends that comes out of the wall from underneath of the roof. The board that runs vertically just below the roofline is the fascia board, which is also the long length of UPVC. Therefore if you look at the gutters located in the front of house, the board behind is called the fascia board. However, soffits runs horizontally from behind the gutters to the wall of a building, so if you walk close to a house and look up, you’ll identify the soffits. They’re done to cover the gaps between the wall house and the gutters. The main function of both soffit and fascia is to divert water away from your roof as well as walls.

    Fascias and soffits were usually made of wood before UPVC came along. And as a result, they only require little maintenance, no more warping, painting or cracks unlike the wooden ones. However they also can’t last an eternity, so when the time comes and you need to replace your soffit and fascia, you’ll probably want to know just how much it’s going to cost.

    Unfortunately, there’s no way to calculate an accurate cost for fascias and soffits as there are too many variables to put into consideration. These includes the type of fascia and soffit you choose as well as the size of your property. However the average cost to replace a three bed semi-detached house’s fascias and soffits is within the range of £1200 to £1500 or even more if you’re staying in London or in a larger detached building.

    Which material is best for soffits and fascias?

    In general uPVC is used for soffits and fascias as it is very strong and durable. It also requires very little maintenance. However, wood can be used and is still popular on listed properties as it retains the original material. Older and listed buildings may require more traditional materials to be used.

    how are soffits constructed?

    Soffits are constructed by homeowners on their properties for several purposes. Not only are they incorporated to hide away the unsightly features of a home, but they can also be used to add decorative architectural detail. Soffits construction, on the other hand, is a project that can be done by any DIY person with the knowledge and experience. However, if you lack the confidence to pull this off, then we’d strongly recommend you get in touch with a reliable professional who can guarantee the best results, the first time. In this guide, we’re are going to take you through the soffit construction process.

    ✓ Measure and mark. The first step is to take an accurate measurement of the size of your propose soffit and use a pencil to mark it out on both the wall and ceiling. The size of your soffits is mainly determined by your needs or preferences.

    ✓ Cut and Install Wall & Ceiling Plates. Proceed to cut the wall as well as ceiling plates once the dimensions have been marked. Make use of 2x4 lumber, you can cut to size with the help of a table saw or mitre. Once done, you can then attach it to the wall as well as ceiling studs with a framing nail gun.

    ✓ Build the box frame. Develop a box-frame from 2x4 lumber, using your measurements as guide.

    ✓ Fit the box frame. Hold the box frame in place with some slide clamps and then attach it to the ceiling and wall plates with drywall screws.

    ✓ Mark the studs. Make use of a pencil to mark out the studs location on your soffit box frame.

    ✓ Cut and hang the drywall. Cut the drywall with a utility knife uing your measurement as a guide. Once done, attach the drywall to the framework with the help of drywall screws.

    ✓ Add finishing touches. This includes installing the corner beads, finishing off with the common drywall work of taping, spackling and sanding. Once the spackle is dry, you can the complete it by painting the soffit.

    how to fit fascias and soffits?

    Fascias and Soffits, just like any other components of a home, do not last forever. They can become tired and worn out over time which implies that you’ll have to replace them to prevent further damage. Getting this project completed can be quite costly, but it doesn’t have to be. Fitting soffits and fascias is very simple task which will leave you with both a modern and contemporary styling which requires little maintenance and also more savings. What’s more? You don’t have to worry about repainting the fascias and soffits on an annual basis, all you need to do is a gentle wipe down of the features with a damp cloth to have them look good.

    If you’re a competent DIYer and confident enough to pull off this task, then all the better. However, if otherwise, we’d strongly recommend you hire the services of a reliable contractor who can guarantee the best results for help. Here are the steps you can follow to fit your fascias and soffits.

    Fascias ( a 18mm fascia board)

    ✓ This is designed for a direct fix without a need for a timber substrate. Simply secure them directly to the rafters with the help of 2 x 65mm a4 stainless steel fixing nails per rafter.

    ✓ Ensure that the rafters are level.

    ✓ Cut the boards back 5mm per edge to enable expansion where any white corner trims, joint trims or angle trims is needed.

    ✓ Secure the guttering to all third rafter.

    Soffit ( 9mm soffit board)

    ✓ Ensure that the preservative treatment to the structural timber has dried out.

    ✓ Fix all utility boards of about 100mm to 605mm in width at a maximum of 60mm centres.

    ✓ If ventilation is needed, there are some soffits that are available in 150mm to 605mm widths and also provides the 10mm air gap needed for roof with a pitch above 15 degrees
