Soffit and Fascia Services
The soffit of your roof provides it with ventilation, so your property’s temperature can be well-regulated. The fascia is the board that runs alongside the roof. It helps to give it a finished look. While both of these components are essential for the appearance and function of your roof, neither will last forever. Over time, both will accumulate wear and tear as well as actual damage.
Soffits and fascias encounter different problems as they age. The most common issues with soffits are pest infestation, moisture damage, and dry rot. With the fascias, decay and rot are the most common causes of problems, as most fascias are constructed of wood. But there is good news. No matter what the issue is with your soffits and/or fascias, Texas Disaster Restoration can help you repair them all in a breeze!

Soffit
Typically, a roof’s edges will overhang your property. These edges are usually called eaves or rafters. But when the underside of it is finished, it is called a soffit, which means “something fixed underneath.” While normally constructed using wood, a soffit can also be made of fiber cement or any other finishing material.
The primary function of a soffit is to provide ventilation to your property. If it isn’t functioning properly, your property may become very hot. In turn, this can lead to even more problems, such as ice dams during the winter months and the premature breakdown of shingles. Improper ventilation can also cause the humidity level inside the building to increase, leading to potential mold and mildew issues. The soffit also protects the underside of the roof from the weather.
Wood, vinyl, and fiber cement are the primary materials used for soffits. Each has its pros and cons. Wood requires periodic maintenance and replacement of rotting boards or panels. Vinyl can easily become discolored when used as a soffit and may warp during the summer months. If you’d like some help with deciding which is best for your purposes, please just ask us. We’d be more than happy to help.
Fascia
The fascia usually comprises anything that covers exposed roof rafters, trusses, and open cavities. It sits directly underneath the roof’s edge and also supports the gutter system. Its purpose is to keep moisture out of the cavity. Materials used include wood, PVC, composite, vinyl, and aluminum-wrapped boards. While wood is the most common material used, be advised that it’s susceptible to rot and mold.
If a fascia becomes warped, rotted, split, or cracked, it can greatly compromise its ability to support the gutters, which can lead to gutters pulling away from the roof or even collapsing completely. That’s why it’s so necessary to handle fascia repair at the first sign of a potential issue.
Texas Disaster Restoration’s experienced crew can take care of any fascia problems that crop up. We can also help you inspect and maintain it periodically to ensure it’s lasting as long as possible.
