Best Soffit & Fascia Repair in Brownsburg, IN

What is a Soffit?

The soffit is an important part of making your home's structure to function correctly in all kinds of weather.  Whether constructed of wood, vinyl, or a metal such as aluminum, it is designed to protect the underside of eaves.  Aluminum and vinyl are the most common materials used and we can provide options that are solid, perforated throughout or a combination of the two.

Installing Soffits

There are several basic steps for the installation or repair of a soffit for your Brownsburg home:
  • Calculate how much soffit material is needed - Whether we determine that we can replace a few pieces due to pest damage or if all of it needs to be replaced with a better functioning vented version to replace old, warped or damaged wood, the process is the same.  Most soffits come in 12" or 16" wide panels of 12-foot length.  We will calculate about 5-10% more for waste and overlaps for the length that needs to be replaced.
  • Preparation of the eaves and related structure - We will need to verify that all surfaces are straight as well as review the boards and shingles that might impact our install process. If not part of a new gutter install, in most cases, the current gutters will need to be removed to install new soffits.
  • Installation of the Receiving Channels - F-channels or J-channels are used as the channel to receive the soffit.  We nail them to the wall every 12 inches and allow a small gap if turning a corner.
  • Soffit panels are cut to fit - We will measure from the wall to the fascia and subtract a small amount to allow for movement.
  • Soffit installation - We then install each panel into the receiving channel.
  • Final installation - The final step is to apply the trim and to nail it using trim nails.

Fascia Board Repair

Similar to soffits, fascia boards are an important part of your home's structure that works in conjunction with the roof and gutters to protect your home.  The fascia board is the vertical board just below the roof edge that gutters are usually installed against. Because the gutters are next to the fascia boards, poor water handling or lack of maintenance such as painting can cause these boards to fail faster than many for your home.

Repairing fascia boards will always require removal of your gutters so we perform a full inspection at the time to make sure returning the existing gutters will provide proper handling of rainwater and snow.  If we find that a replacement is needed, this is the time to get it done!
