Fascias, soffits & guttering in Kirkby-in-Ashfield

Kirkby's post-war and ex-colliery housing has a roofline problem that goes beyond looks. The shallow pitches common on the town's mining-era terraces push a lot of water into a short run of guttering, so once a gutter drops out of level or a joint opens up it overflows at exactly the point where the fascia meets the rafter feet — which is why so many boards here are soft at the ends while the middle still looks sound from the pavement.

We replace the roofline in FreeFoam UPVC — fascias, soffits, bargeboards and gutters in white, anthracite, oak or rosewood — cutting back to sound timber first and re-levelling the runs so they fall to the downpipes. On these shallower roofs vented soffits go on as standard, because these are the same houses that sweat in the loft without proper airflow at the eaves. Our own crews, ten minutes from the yard, 10-year written guarantee, typical jobs from £1,500 and a fixed quote inside 48 hours.
