Fascias, Soffits & Guttering Dartford
Fascias, soffits and guttering are some of the most important parts of your roofline and also the parts of your roof that need the most maintenance. That’s because the fascias, soffits and guttering are the drainage and most heavily water damaged.
As long as you’re maintaining your roof yearly, you can augment the lifespan of your roofline. However, yearly maintenance may not be enough if you’re dealing with older homes. After a while, rain and snow take their toll. When you ring our Dartford team on 0203 285 8334, we can talk to you about the best way to improve your fascias, soffits and guttering.

Defining Roofline
Fascias, soffits and guttering make up your roofline where the slate or tile meets the roof edge. They are principally there to conduct water safely away from the building and loft. While there are many aesthetically pleasing options for guttering, we believe in offering the best products to help your roofline.
Guttering is the easiest to recognise, as this is the pipework around the roof edge. The difference between fascias and soffits may be more difficult to recognise. When looking up at your guttering from the ground, the soffits are the boards that are best visible to you. This protects the battening from moisture and helps improve ventilation to reduce mould growth.
Fascias support the guttering above the soffits. When any one of these elements is damaged, it can affect the rest of the roofline.

How do I know if my fascias, soffits, or guttering needs replacing?
There are a few ways to tell if you need to replace your roofline. Evaluate your roof from afar.
1) If your guttering looks like it’s sagging or pulling away from your home, it’s a sign that you probably need to replace it.
2) Look for cracks and flaking paint, especially where it looks like the cracks have been instigated by water damage. Small cracks can become larger problems with the onset of winter and cooler temperatures. When water freezes in these cracks, it can expand the cracks until they become much larger.
3) Mould patches are a sign that your fascias, soffits or guttering may need to be replaced. Mould can cause respiratory problems that lead to long term health concerns. Deterring mould before this occurs is important for your family’s long term health.
4) Water spots in strange places are a strong sign that one or more aspects of your roofline are not functioning as they should. This can contribute to problems we’ve already mentioned, like mould or cracks, but can also weaken the structural integrity of your home, including the brickwork.
