D.S. ROOFING Cumbria Ltd offer a wide range of fascias, in a choice of styles, sizes and colours to suit any building and house.
It is important to ensure that the roofline is finished properly. This means the addition of fascia boards along the roofline to give the area a better look as well as protect the exposed roof edges from weather elements. The roofline is one of the notorious parts for hard to detect roof leaks. It is also vulnerable to strong winds, which can blow off the roofing tiles in extreme cases. Adding quality fascias will eliminate this risk.
Soffits ,on the other hand, provide a better roof appearance as it tends to be visible from street level in most cases. The soffits also provide for adequate spacing to allow air to circulate around the roof area as well. We can be able to improve the appeal of your home’s roofline Carlisle with these additions.
Fascias is a term used in architecture to refer to a frieze or band running horizontally and situated vertically under the roof edge or which forms the outer surface of a cornice and is visible to an outside observer. This is to say that the long dimension of the surface is horizontal and the short dimension is vertical.
As the literal meaning is "band" it is also used, although less commonly, for other such band-like surfaces like a wide, flat strip around a doorway, different and separate from the wall surface.
Specifically, used to describe the horizontal "fascia board" which caps the end of rafters outside a building, which can be used to hold the rain gutter. The finished surface below the fascia and rafters is called the soffit or eave.

When so constructed, the soffit material is typically screwed or nailed to rafters known as lookout rafters or lookouts for short.
Soffit exposure profile (from wall to fascia) on a building's exterior can vary from a few centimetres (2-3 inches) to 3 feet or more, depending on construction. It can be non-ventilated, or ventilated for cooling attic space.
