FAQs

What length do these fascia boards come in?

These boards are supplied in 5-meter lengths.

Can I install this over old wood?

It is recommended to remove decaying timber before installation to ensure the PVC board is fixed to a sound, structural surface.

What is the correct spacing for nails?

For coloured boards like Black Ash, you must maintain a maximum fixing spacing of 400mm.

How deep is the return leg for the soffit?

The rebated return leg measures 40mm from front to back.

Does the finish require painting?

No, the Black Ash woodgrain finish is maintenance-free and does not require painting.

What type of nails should I use?

You should use 65mm polytop nails at each rafter.

Troubleshooting

Board appearing wavy after installation

Check that the fixing centers are at 400mm or less; exceedence leads to expansion issues.

Difficulty inserting soffit board

Ensure the 40mm rebate is free of debris or excess adhesive before sliding the soffit in.

Nails not holding securely

Verify that you are using 65mm polytop nails and that they are driven into sound, non-rotted rafter ends.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to rot and weathering
  • Easy to cut and install with standard woodworking tools
  • Includes a rebated return leg for seamless soffit integration
  • Sophisticated Black Ash finish provides a premium look
  • Consistent 18mm thickness ensures structural reliability

Cons

  • Requires specific nail spacing of 400mm for coloured boards
  • Cannot be installed over existing decaying timber fascia
  • Requires specific polytop nails to match the finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the board, proper installation is essential. Use two 65mm polytop nails at each rafter, ensuring the nails are driven flush without compressing the PVC surface. The maximum spacing between fixings must be kept at 400mm for coloured boards to account for thermal expansion. Compatibility is optimized with Freefoam soffit systems that utilize the same 40mm rebate depth. For care, simply wipe down the boards with a damp cloth and mild detergent periodically to remove dust or environmental buildup; avoid abrasive chemicals that might scratch the woodgrain texture.
