Expert Fascia Board Installation and Maintenance throughout South Charlotte, NC

With years of experience, The Brothers that just do Gutters offers expert fascia board solutions, including repair and replacement services. Specialists guide selecting the appropriate fascia board, a crucial aspect of any roofing system. Fascia is more than just a decorative element‚ it securely covers the ends of roof rafters. It supports elements like gutters, preventing water damage by directing rainwater away from the structure. Our commitment to quality and attention to detail ensures each installation meets industry standards.

Soffit

Soffit refers to the material-typically wood, vinyl, or aluminum-that stretches from the underside of the fascia to the upper edge of your wall board. This component, working in tandem with the fascia, shields the rafters from weather and moisture while also permitting air to circulate through soffits and vents. Proper airflow in the attic is crucial for maintaining balanced temperatures in the enclosed space. If your home’s soffit is damaged or missing, we can handle the replacement or installation for you. At present, we offer to install perforated vinyl soffits to ensure adequate ventilation and protection.

Roof Straps

When a home does not have fascia and adding fascia is not possible, The Brothers that just do Gutters can still install gutters by using roof straps. These straps connect to the hidden hanger inside the gutter and are fastened directly onto the roof. However, if the roof is older, lifting the shingles to insert the strap is not advisable because it can cause damage or break the shingles. In such situations, the roof strap is typically secured on top of the shingles instead. Although this method provides a sturdy gutter system, it generally does not offer the same strength as a traditional fascia installation, and roof hangers tend to be less visually appealing. For homes with slate, tile, or cedar shingle roofs, it is strongly advised to avoid the roof strap method altogether.

Here are some reasons why having a fascia board (in good condition) is the best option:

Fascia provides a layer of strength to help stabilize the gutter.
Soffit is vented which prevents winter ice, water from entering the home, and keeps the home cooler in the summer months.
Open rafters with no fascia often allow for insects and animals to find their way into your home.

Fascia allows a place for the soffit to attach and close off the attic space
Open rafter without fascia get screwed into the end grain of the available wood. It is not as strong as screwing it into the perpendicular wood of the fascia board (more strength and stability when you are able to screw into grains of wood that run horizontally).

For homes that don’t currently have fascia or where installing it isn’t feasible, an alternative approach is to extend the roof overhang. Once this overhang has been built out, fascia can be added to the new section, providing a suitable surface for the gutters to be installed.
