Soffit and fascia
Fascia is the board gutters hang from. Soffit closes the underside of the eave and lets the roof assembly breathe. Wind and water both show up there first.
DE Group installs and replaces soffit and fascia as part of gutter and roof work, so the metal has a sound surface to fasten to.
- Fascia replacement before a gutter rehang
- Vented soffit
- Matched finishes at the eave
- Work sequenced with roofing when both are open
Part of the roofline, not a separate trade on paper
If the fascia is soft, a new gutter will not stay. We replace the wood or the cladding first, then hang the gutter.
01.
Solid fastening
Gutters need a fascia that can hold the weight of water.
02.
Closed eave
Soffit keeps wind-driven rain and animals out of the overhang.
03.
One crew
Soffit, fascia, and gutters are quoted together when the eave is open.
Questions
Fascia and soffit are also done with roofing. The fastening surface is the same either way.
