Roofline · Blackburn supply
Finish the roof edge.
Properly.
Fascia, soffit, capping, ventilation and compatible trims selected around the role each component must perform—not simply its appearance.
Start with the correct board role
Product thickness does not by itself prove suitability. The selected profile’s manufacturer information, support, fixing method and the condition of the retained structure must be checked together.
Capping or reveal board
A thinner finishing board used only where the retained substrate is sound and the chosen product is intended for that application.
Soffit board
General-purpose, vented or hollow profiles selected for the required width, appearance and roof-ventilation strategy.
Trims and fixings
Joints, corners, box-end details, pins and compatible accessories scheduled with the specific board range.
Information needed before ordering
- Photographs showing the whole eaves, gables, returns and existing damage
- Separate fascia depth, soffit width and total lengths for each elevation
- Whether retained timber is sound—confirmed by the responsible installer
- Ventilation requirement for the actual roof build-up
- Profile, finish, corners, joints, box ends, fixings and delivery access
Roofline problems and decisions
Rotting fascia boards
Identify water entry and loss of support before selecting a replacement route.
Capping vs replacement
Understand when a finishing board can be appropriate and when it can conceal failure.
Soffit ventilation
Separate a ventilation design question from a simple choice of board style.

Roofline supply questions
What is the difference between fascia and soffit?
Fascia is the board at the roof edge that commonly supports the gutter and closes the rafter ends. Soffit finishes the underside of the eaves. They perform different roles and must be measured separately.
Can uPVC fascia be fitted over existing timber?
A capping or reveal board may be appropriate only where the retained timber and support are sound and the selected system allows it. Rotten or structurally inadequate timber should not be concealed.
Does a soffit need ventilation?
Ventilation requirements depend on the roof build-up and current design. Vented soffit is one possible route, but the responsible designer or installer must confirm the required free area and avoid blocking the airflow path.
