Fascias Soffits And Guttering in Farnham, Surrey

Most homeowners we speak to are tired of the endless cycle of sanding and painting old timber boards. Wooden fascias look lovely when they're fresh, but the British weather isn't kind to them. Eventually, they crack, the paint peels, and rot sets in. Once that timber starts to go soft, it can no longer support the weight of your gutters, which is usually when they start to sag and leak. We specialise in replacing that tired, high-maintenance wood with modern uPVC. It’s a bit of a game-changer, really. You get a clean, crisp finish that won't rot, warp, or need a lick of paint for decades. A quick wipe down with a damp cloth once a year is all it takes to keep your home’s exterior looking brand new.

It’s not just about the bits you can see from the street; what’s happening underneath your roof is just as important. Your soffits—the boards tucked under the eaves—do more than just hide your rafters. If they aren't properly ventilated, moisture can build up in your roof space, leading to condensation and, eventually, timber rot in your roof structure. We install ventilated soffits that allow a steady flow of air into your loft, keeping everything healthy and dry. We also pay close attention to the details like 'Box Ends' and 'Bargeboards', ensuring every junction is perfectly sealed and looks seamless. It’s these small touches that separate a rushed job from a professional installation that lasts a lifetime.

Is your current guttering struggling to cope with sudden summer storms? Many older systems simply weren't designed for the volume of water we get these days. We offer a range of solutions, from 'Deep-Flow' gutters that can handle huge amounts of runoff, to the more decorative 'Ogee' profiles that add a touch of traditional character to your home. We're also big fans of 'Eaves Protectors'—these are clever little trays we install under your bottom row of tiles. They make sure water flows directly into the gutter rather than ponding behind your fascia board, which is where most rot problems start. It's about building a system that works together to channel water safely away from your biggest asset.

You might have heard of 'over-cladding' or 'capping', where new uPVC boards are simply pinned over the old wood. While it might look okay for a year or two, we generally advise against it. Why? Because if you hide rotting wood behind a plastic cover, that rot will only spread faster, eventually affecting your rafter ends. We prefer what we call a 'Full Rip'—we remove every scrap of old timber, inspect your rafters for any hidden damage, and then install your new uPVC boards onto a solid, healthy structure. It’s the only way to guarantee a long-lasting finish that won't give you nasty surprises down the road. Isn't it better to do the job properly once than to pay for it twice?
