FAQs

What is the primary benefit of using UPVC capping over traditional timber?

The primary benefit is its maintenance-free nature and superior weather resistance. Unlike timber, UPVC will not split, crack, warp, or rot, and it does not require painting or staining.

Can this trim be painted to match a different colour scheme?

While UPVC can be painted, it is not recommended as the paint may not adhere well over time and could peel or flake, especially due to temperature fluctuations. The Irish Oak finish is designed to be permanent and requires no painting.

How should I handle the boards upon delivery?

It is crucial to fully open and inspect all parcels for any damage before signing for the delivery. If damage is found, do not sign as accepted, or note the damage clearly on the delivery receipt and contact the supplier immediately.

What are the dimensions of this product?

The product is 9mm thick, 175mm deep, and comes in 2-metre lengths. It is supplied as a pack of two boards.

Is this product suitable for DIY installation?

Yes, the trim is designed to be easy to handle and fit, cutting with standard tools and fixable with nails, pins, or adhesive, making it suitable for both DIY enthusiasts and professional installers.

How does the Irish Oak finish perform in direct sunlight?

The UPVC material is UV resistant, meaning it is designed to withstand direct sunlight without fading or deteriorating significantly over time.

What types of projects is this capping trim best suited for?

It is versatile and ideal for finishing window reveals, capping existing fascias, adding trim to soffits, or covering external pipework, especially where a woodgrain aesthetic is desired without the upkeep of real timber.

Troubleshooting

Parcels arrived damaged

Fully open and inspect all parcels before signing for delivery. If damage is found, document it and refuse the delivery or make a note on the delivery receipt. Contact the supplier immediately to initiate a damage claim.

Trim is not cutting cleanly

Ensure you are using a sharp blade suitable for UPVC or plastic. Make slow, steady cuts. A fine-tooth saw is recommended for best results.

Adhesive not holding securely

Ensure the surfaces are clean, dry, and free from dust or debris. Use a high-strength, weather-resistant adhesive specifically designed for UPVC and exterior use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Measure and Cut: Measure the required length for your application. The boards can be easily cut to size using standard woodworking tools like a handsaw or jigsaw.
  2. Fixing: Attach the trim using appropriate fixings such as nails, pins, or a suitable exterior-grade adhesive. Ensure fixings are corrosion-resistant.

This trim is designed for use as window sill capping, fascia capping, soffit trim, or for covering pipework. It is compatible with most standard building substrates.

Care:

These UPVC boards are maintenance-free. Cleaning can be done with a damp cloth and mild detergent if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the woodgrain effect.
