The Brothers that just do Gutters in NW Houston, TX offers fascia replacement in Northwest Houston, Spring, Cypress, and the surrounding areas. Fascias 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. 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. The Brothers that just do Gutters do fascia replacement for homes with rotting, damaged, or missing fascias.
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 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. This is a good option for homes with an existing soffit, but not a fascia. Roof straps can be used to attach gutters to the roofline in the absence of a fascia, but it is not as secure as attaching to a fascia.
When replacing a fascia, The Brothers that just do Gutters use durable materials such as aluminum, steel, and vinyl. These materials are strong and can withstand the elements. We also make sure that the fascia is securely attached to the house and that the gutter is securely attached to the fascia.
Fascias provide numerous benefits to the home. They 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 can help with fascia replacement in Northwest Houston, Spring, Cypress, and the surrounding areas.
