UPVC Fascias & Soffits In Wivenhoe

Many of the post-war and newer homes up the hill in Wivenhoe were built with timber fascias. After a long time in damp air from the river, those boards often start to peel, split or soften, and gutters fixed to them begin to sag. UPVC fascias and soffits replace that timber with boards that don't need painting.

Local Knowledge

Rooflines we replace around Wivenhoe

On streets towards Wivenhoe Cross, the usual picture is flaking paint on the fascia, soffit boards with gaps where birds or wasps have got in, and gutters pulling away at the joints. We remove the old timber completely rather than capping over it, because covering rotten wood just hides the problem while it gets worse. Then we check the rafter ends, fit new UPVC fascias and ventilated soffits, and replace the guttering at the same time so everything lines up. The bottom row of tiles and the felt at the eaves are tidied too, which stops water dripping behind the new boards.

Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01206 648098 or book online.

Things to think about in Wivenhoe

On older cottages in the old town conservation area, a plastic roofline may not suit the building, and listed homes may need consent for any change. We'll talk you through this honestly and can repair or replace timber where that's more appropriate. Elsewhere, like-for-like roofline work rarely needs permission.

UPVC Fascias & Soffits in Wivenhoe — Your Questions

Everything you need to know about our upvc fascias & soffits service across Wivenhoe and Essex.

We don't cap over timber. Covering rotten boards traps moisture and lets the rot spread unseen. Taking the old wood off lets us check the rafter ends and fix the new boards to something solid.
Usually it makes sense. The gutters have to come down to change the fascias anyway, and new ones line up with the new boards. We'll include both in your free written quote so you can compare.
