In our work as domestic roofers in Horley, we recognise that numerous elements contribute to a roofing system. Collectively, gutters, fascias and soffits are known as the roofline. These parts serve a valuable role in the performance of your roof and require occasional roofline repairs, flat roof repairs and maintenance to keep everything functioning as normal. Here’s some more information to help you better understand these parts of your roof.
Fascias, also known as fascia boards, are horizontal boards that line the roof's edge. These boards hang over the walls of the building and close the gap between the walls and the roof’s edge. Primarily, fascias prevent water ingress and wildlife from entering the property through the roof. They are also designed to be visually appealing, as they can be seen on the side of the house, so the way they look is factored into their design.
Like our re-roofs and new flat roofs, fascias can be made from various materials. These include:
Wood
uPVC
Aluminium
Vinyl
Soffits
To protect the roofing system from the elements, soffits serve a similar purpose to fascias, although they are installed at a 90-degree angle under the fascia boards. These boards help smooth the roof's finish, fill the gap between the fascias and the wall, and conceal the ends of the rafters. Fascias and soffits are also made of similar materials. Some examples of materials for soffits are:
Aluminium
Composite Materials
Fibre Cement
Steel
Vinyl
Wood
Gutters
In our experience as domestic roofers in Horley, gutters or guttering are more renowned than either fascias or soffits. Gutters are a series of shallow troughs that line the edge of your roofing system. When water drains off the roof, it flows into the gutters, which in turn lead to the drains below via a downpipe. Blockages and damage to your guttering can cause problems for your roof and must be addressed promptly. As providers of flat roof repairs, re-roofing, slate replacement, torch-on felt roofing, roofing membrane replacements and new flat roofs in Surrey, you can count on A Star Roofing and Guttering to provide effective solutions to any issues you may be experiencing.
