Fascias & Soffits in Swindon
Local roofers for repairs, new roofs & flat roofing. Free surveys, fixed written quotes, tidy workmanship.
Swindon Roofing Company replaces fascias, soffits and bargeboards across Swindon — the roofline boards that carry your gutters, close off the roof edge, and quietly rot behind peeling paint until a gutter bracket lets go. Modern uPVC roofline ends the paint-and-rot cycle permanently: white, anthracite or woodgrain boards that need washing, not maintaining.
The job done properly is replacement, not cover-up — old boards off, timber behind inspected, and ventilation designed in. The £99-a-side vans capping over wet rot are why the trade has a reputation problem.
What roofline replacement involves
Full board replacement
Old fascias and soffits stripped, rafter feet checked and treated, new uPVC boards fixed with the correct fixings — not capped over rot.
Ventilation built in
Vented soffits or over-fascia vents keep lofts breathing — skip this and condensation quietly rots the roof from inside.
Guttering renewed with it
New gutters on new boards in one visit — the pairing that makes sense while the access is up.
Bargeboards & cladding
Gable bargeboards and feature cladding matched to the new roofline.

Replacement vs capping — the straight answer
Capping (fixing thin uPVC over existing timber) is legitimate only when the timber underneath is bone dry and sound — which, on boards old enough to need capping, it rarely is. Capped rot keeps rotting invisibly, and the gutter fixings are still screwed into it. Our surveys tell you which yours is: sound timber that could take capping honestly, or tired boards that need replacing. We overwhelmingly recommend replacement because we overwhelmingly find the rot.
