Rotted fascia boards and failing soffits in Kesgrave allow water into the roof void and attract pest access. We replace fascias, soffits and guttering across Kesgrave and the IP5 area — free surveys, exact quotes, no call-out fee.
Fascia and soffit failure is one of the less glamorous but genuinely important maintenance jobs on Kesgrave properties. Rotted timber fascias allow water directly into the top of the external wall and into the roof void; failed soffits create entry points for birds and squirrels that can cause significant damage inside the roof space. Catching fascia rot early — before it has spread to the wall plate or the rafter ends — almost always costs less to fix.
Kesgrave's 1980s–90s housing carries original timber or early uPVC fascias now approaching 30–40 years old. Rotted timber sections and discoloured uPVC are common on properties of this age.
Timber fascia repair and replacement, uPVC fascia board fitting, soffit replacement in uPVC or timber, barge board replacement, integrated ventilated soffit installation (important for roof space ventilation on older properties), and full guttering replacement carried out at the same time where both are needed.

Yes — we almost always replace fascias, soffits and guttering together. They are all accessed from the same scaffold, and replacing fascias without checking soffit condition (or vice versa) usually means returning within a few years for the other.
Soft or spongy texture when pressed, paint peeling in multiple places, visible cracking along the grain, or gutters that have started to pull away from the wall. A free survey will confirm the extent of any deterioration.
