What Is a Fascia and Where Is It on Your Roof?
Maintaining a strong, watertight roofline is vital to protecting your home, particularly in areas like Woking, where weather can test the resilience of your property’s exterior. At The Roofing and Fascia Company, we offer a comprehensive suite of roofing and guttering services designed to keep your roof in excellent condition, prevent water damage, and give your home a clean, polished finish.
In this post, we’ll walk you through all the services we provide, from roof repairs and flat roofs to fascias, soffits, guttering, roof cleaning, and even external cladding and explain why choosing local, experienced roofers like us makes such a difference.
Roofing Services: Repairs, Replacements & Domestic & Commercial Projects
At The Roofing and Fascia Company, we handle all aspects of roofing for both domestic and commercial properties. Whether you're dealing with a minor leak, damaged tiles, or need a full roof replacement, our skilled team is ready to help.
Key elements of our roofing service include:
Regular servicing and inspection: We assess the health of your roof, identify weak spots or damage, and recommend necessary maintenance or repairs.
Repair work: For roofs suffering from leaks, broken or missing tiles, or other damage, we provide targeted repairs to restore the integrity of your roof.
Complete roof replacement: If the damage is extensive or your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan, we offer full replacement using high-quality materials.
Quality assurance: We emphasise the use of premium materials and expert craftsmanship so your new or repaired roof is built to last.
Safety & compliance: Our teams are fully insured and trained. Safety is paramount, we use Easi-Dec platforms or scaffolding to access your roof securely.
Flat Roofing: Specialist Solutions with Over 15 Years’ Experience
If your home or building has a flat roof, you’ll know the particular challenges it presents, from leaks to pooling, to wear and tear that can be hard to detect. We’re specialists in flat roofing, with more than 15 years’ experience delivering solutions across Berkshire, Surrey, and Hampshire.
Our flat-roof services include:
Leak diagnosis & repair: We locate and fix small to major leaks before they cause costly structural damage.
Replacement: When a flat roof is beyond repair, we can replace it entirely with reliable, weather-resistant materials.
Preventative maintenance: Regular inspections to catch issues early, protecting your building and extending the life of your roof.
Fascias & Soffits: uPVC Experts for Roofline Transformation
One of our core specialities is fascias and soffits, particularly using uPVC. Focusing on these critical roofline components lets us deliver both functional protection and improved aesthetics.
What We Offer:
uPVC Fascias
We install strong, attractive fascia boards in a variety of sizes (100 mm up to 600 mm) and profiles (e.g., ogee, tongue-and-groove, or plain).
Our uPVC boards resist rot, damp, and moisture (no painting required), and far lower maintenance than timber.
We also fit box-end boards to neatly finish fascia and bargeboard corners, especially at gable ends.
uPVC Soffits
We provide hollow, plain, and vented soffit boards to suit different ventilation and design needs.
Hollow soffit: Lightweight, with a tongue-and-groove appearance.
Plain soffit: Solid board for a clean, uninterrupted finish.
Vented soffit: Built-in ventilation channels for airflow to reduce condensation.
Additional Roofline Components
Eaves protection trays: These help to waterproof the lower eaves, supporting the underlay and reducing the risk of damp or rotting rafters.
Over-fascia vents: Hidden under the tiles and above the fascia, these ensure continuous airflow into the roof space.
Birdcomb (comb filler): Blocks birds and large insects from the roof void by sealing the gap between roof tiles and underlay.
Colour Ranges
We offer a wide palette of fascia and soffit colours: white, blackgrain, anthracite, rosewood, Irish oak, creamgrain, and more, allowing you to match or contrast with your home.
Guttering Services: Cleaning, Repair, Installation & Replacement
A well-functioning gutter system is critical for channeling rainwater safely away from your home, and at The Roofing and Fascia Company, we treat guttering as part of a holistic roofline system.
Here’s a breakdown of what we do:
Gutter Cleaning & Maintenance
We recommend bi-annual cleaning (at least twice a year) to prevent blockages from leaves, moss, and debris.
Our team has the right equipment to clear gutters safely and thoroughly, reducing risk of overflow, leaks, or damage.
Regular maintenance of guttering prevents issues that can damage your soffits, fascia, and even brickwork.
Gutter Repair
We repair leaks, misaligned gutters, and broken joints. High winds or storms can displace sections, and our team will put them back into secure alignment.
If only part of the gutter is damaged, we’ll mend that section, you don’t always need a full replacement.
Gutter Installation and Replacement
Material options: We offer both uPVC and aluminium gutter systems.
uPVC: Lightweight, low maintenance, available in a variety of colours.
Aluminium: More robust, corrosion-resistant, long life, and an excellent choice if you want a sleeker finish.
Profiles available: We install multiple gutter profiles, including Half-Round, Square Line, High-Capacity ("Deepflow"), and Niagara Ogee.
Colour matching: Our gutters are available in different colours (white, anthracite, brown, black) so they can match your fascia or other roofline elements.
Secure installation: We carefully survey, remove old guttering, fix new brackets, set the correct fall to downpipes, and seal the joints to prevent leaks.
Testing: Once fitted, we run water through the system to check for leaks or blockages, ensuring everything drains properly.
Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal
Over time, moss, lichen, and algae can accumulate on your roof, and even though they may look harmless, they can lead to serious issues. At The Roofing and Fascia Company, we offer roof cleaning and moss removal services designed to protect and prolong the life of your roof.
Here’s what we do:
Thorough cleaning: Our team removes moss and biological growth safely and effectively to stop it acting like a sponge, which otherwise could keep your roof damp.
Preventing water retention: Moss holds water, which may soak under tiles, damage underlay, and contribute to rot. Removing it helps prevent these risks.
Gutter protection: When moss sheds, it can clog gutters or downpipes. By removing it before it accumulates, we improve the performance of your rainwater system.
Aesthetic and kerb appeal: A clean roof looks better, it boosts your property’s appearance and could help with resale value.
Maintenance advice: We recommend regular cleaning (at least annually) to preserve roof condition, reduce risks, and avoid expensive repairs.
External Cladding: Transform Your Home’s Exterior
Beyond roofs and gutters, we also provide external cladding installation to enhance both protection and appearance.
Here are the details of our cladding services:
uPVC Cladding System (Durasid):
We install Durasid cladding, which features a cellular uPVC core with a co-extruded top layer. It’s low maintenance and designed to last.
Colour and style options: available in wood-effect finishes (like Irish Oak or Rosewood), plus modern neutrals (cream, light grey, anthracite) all with realistic textures via digital printing.
Lightweight and easy to install, while offering improved insulation and structural protection.
JamesHardie Fibre Cement Plank:
A premium, fire-rated cladding option (A2 non-combustible) that provides a high-end finish and durability.
Comes in over 21 colour options to suit your design aesthetic.
Adds value and kerb appeal to your home while offering excellent weather resistance.
