Fascia and Soffits
Do you know what fascias and soffits are? It’s not just a word to be thrown around! Fascias and soffits protect your home, as well as adding character to the exterior.
Trentside Roofing is here with some helpful info on these crucial bits of roofing. We’ll tell you what they do, how we install them, and more importantly: why you must get them looked at by an expert if anything looks off or seems amiss!
Fascia and Soffits
Fascias and soffits are a part of a roofing system that help protect the structure from water damage and adds to its design. The fascias are found along the edge of your home’s exterior. They have three functions: keep water away from where it can do serious harm, prevent moisture from entering between walls and eaves, and provide an aesthetically pleasing look to each house.
Soffits sit underneath fascias; their purpose is for ventilation – allowing air to pass through into your attic space – but also helps with insulation (and acts as another layer of defence against potential leaks). It’s not surprising we have become known in Stoke-on-Trent for our expert installation services!
Benefits of Fascias and Soffits
Fascias and soffits offer many benefits, including:
They protect your roof from water damage by deflecting rain away from the eaves and walls of your property.
Insulation is improved as a result, which helps to cut heating costs.
If you have Velux ® Windows installed in the loft, fascias can help keep them dryer for longer – reducing condensation that might otherwise form between panes or on frame surfaces if it were to remain there too long.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the signs of bad fascias and soffits?
Many different signs point to an issue with your fascias and soffits. For instance, if you see cracks or black spots on the board of your cladding, then this is a sign that it may need replacing. Additionally, there may be some discolouration around areas where water has been leaking from above – usually at joints between boards or around any holes/vents etc.
What happens if you don't repair your soffits and fascias?
If this problem isn’t fixed, it will only continue to escalate over time, causing more damage and being an eyesore for neighbours! This means that eventually, you will have to do a total replacement of your fascias and soffits, which could cost you hundreds or even thousands.
What are ways to protect the soffits and fascias?
There are a few ways to protect your fascias and soffits. Firstly, you can prevent water from penetrating the boards in the first place by using a high-quality paint or waterproofing product on them before installation.
Secondly, you should make sure there is no foliage growing near any vents etc., which may allow leaves/dirt to get stuck inside, which could cause further problems down the line.
