Fascias carry your gutters and close off the rafter ends; soffits seal the underside of the eaves. Rotten timber roofline lets in birds and damp and makes gutters sag.
Roofline was a core part of our original uPVC service and appears in several of our photographs: new white and black fascias, soffits, gutters and downpipes.

Fascias and soffits: common questions
Should fascias be capped or fully replaced?
Capping only works over sound timber. If timber is rotten, full replacement is the lasting option.
Do I need new gutters too?
It's usually sensible, since gutters are removed during roofline work and older systems may be brittle.
Can you add ventilation?
Yes, roofline replacement is a good time to add vents that help the loft stay dry.
