Fascia & Guttering
Whenever you have a problem with the guttering on your home, at first the damage is likely to be seen on the exterior. Oftentimes water runs through leaks in the gutter which causes soil erosion somewhere around the perimeter of the building, and in close proximity. However, if left unrepaired, the damage could become much more extensive resulting in structural damage as well as damage to the interior of the building and/or contents.
Common Fascia & Guttering Problems
One of the most common problems with faulty guttering is that the fascia and soffit become damp and susceptible to black mold and mildew. Not only is this a problem to your home or commercial building, but a great number of health complaints can result as well. Whenever you have leaks in your gutters, Rooftime will do a thorough inspection of your soffit and fascia as well. Usually the three go hand in hand and when one sustains damage, all three will need repairing and/or replacing at the same time.
Protecting Repaired Soffit
You may want to discuss with the Rooftime team the possibility of wrapping any replaced wood in either aluminium or PVC coated vinyl. This will help to protect the timber from future water damage in the event that a gutter becomes ruptured during a storm or other unforeseen event. In other words, most often at least the fascia will need to be replaced when repairing or replacing gutters and quite often the soffit will need to be replaced as well.
Colours and Styles to Choose From
Rooftime has a wide variety of high quality fascia and guttering which are available in assorted colours and styles. Not only will you put a stop to all those leaks, but you will be able to provide for the aesthetic appeal of your home as well. Once Rooftime has made the repairs, you can be assured that every effort was made to guard against suffering through that damage again.
Fascia & Guttering When Re-Roofing
As is the case with roofs of all kinds, fascia and guttering also have a life expectancy which correlates with the life of the roof. If you have had problems with your roofing and have been advised by Rooftime that you need a total re-roofing installation, there is a good chance they will also advise you to see to your fascia and guttering. If this is the case, you can trust that it needs to be done.
Excellent Workmanship and Customer Service
Whether the problem is related to water damage, birds’ nests, leaves or fallen branches, Rooftime will see to it that the problem is fixed and that there is adequate ventilation to avoid structural damage due to dampness. Rotten roofing felt edges will be removed and when necessary, Rooftime will re-cement gables and gable edges to prevent water seepage. All site debris will be cleaned up and removed at the end as part of our commitment to excellent customer service.
