Fascias are an important part of the gutter system and provide a layer of strength to help stabilize the gutter, allow space for the soffit to attach, prevent winter ice and prevent water from entering the home, and help deter animals and insects from getting into your home. The Brothers that just do Gutters do fascia replacement for homes with rotting, damaged, or missing fascias.

Identifying Rotted Fascias

It can be difficult to tell if the fascia is rotted without removing the gutter, but if water is running between the fascia and the gutter, it is a high probability that the fascia is rotted. Older Colonial and Victorian homes do not usually have fascias because the belief was that their natural structure would direct water far enough away from the foundation, but this belief is untrue and fascias are needed.

Soffits

Soffits are a layer of wood, vinyl, or aluminum that extends from the bottom of the fascia to the top of the wall board to help protect the rafters from weather and moisture. In homes that do not have a fascia, The Brothers that just do Gutters can install a gutter using roof straps, often onto the top of the shingles.
