How to Replace Fascia Boards

The phrase ‘How to replace fascia boards’ is a little misleading, as once a timber fascia board has deteriorated i.e started to rot, warp or crack, the only sensible option is to either, replace the timber fascia with upvc fascia, or cap over the existing timber fascia with upvc fascia.

The best solution is to replace the timber fascia with Magnum upvc fascia. These type of fascia boards are a full replacement board, which can be fixed using stainless steel polynails directly to the rafters. The range of Magnum fascia boards from Speedy Plastics and Resins are thicker than standard fascia boards. They start at 18mm thick and go up to 25mm thick and come in a range of colours and finishes. They are also available in a range of depths from 150mm to 410mm and are all 5 metres long.

Another options is to cap over the existing timber fascia with standard upvc fascia also known as a upvc capping board. This range of upvc capping boards from Speedy Plastics and Resins come in thicknesses between 8mm and 10mm and are more economical than the Magnum full replacement upvc fascia boards. Unlike the Magnum fascia boards these are fixed on to the existing timber fascia with stainless steel polypins. They come in a range of depths from 150mm to 454mm and are all 5 metres in length.

Which ever option you choose however, you will benefit from the Freefoam guarantee, and the reassurance of buying a top quality product, backed up by the experience and great customer service offered at Speedy Plastics and Resins.
