FAQs

Can I install this board over rotten timber?

No, the existing timber must be sound and free from rot. This board is a cover and protective layer, not a structural replacement. Any rotten timber should be replaced or repaired before installation.

What tools do I need for installation?

Basic tools usually include a tape measure, a fine-toothed saw (for PVC), a drill (if using screws), a caulk gun (for adhesive/sealant), and a spirit level. Safety glasses and gloves are also recommended.

How do I clean the fascia boards?

Simply wipe them down with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scourers, which can scratch the surface.

Is this product suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, it is designed for both external applications, such as covering fascia boards, and internal uses like window sills and pipe boxing. It is weatherproof and UV resistant.

What is the warranty on this product?

Eurocell guarantees the fascia boards against warping or cracking. For specific warranty terms and duration, please refer to Eurocell's official product documentation or website.

Can I paint these boards?

Painting is generally not recommended as the boards are made from colour-fast PVC-u designed to retain their white finish. Painting may void any warranty and can lead to peeling or flaking.

Troubleshooting

Board doesn't sit flush or has gaps after installation

Ensure the underlying surface is flat and free of obstructions. Re-measure and re-cut for precision. Use appropriate fixings or adhesive to secure evenly.

Discoloration or yellowing over time

While the material is colour-fast, harsh chemical cleaners can affect the surface. Clean with mild soapy water. If discoloration is from external factors, a gentle UPVC cleaner may help, but this is usually not an issue with Eurocell's guarantee against colour degradation.

Cracking or warping

Eurocell guarantees against warping or cracking. If this occurs, contact Eurocell customer support with proof of purchase. Ensure proper installation and avoid excessive force during fitting.

Difficulty cutting boards cleanly

Use a fine-toothed saw specifically designed for plastics or UPVC. Support the board firmly during cutting to prevent vibration and ensure a straight cut.

Cost-effective alternative to full fascia replacement.
Requires minimal maintenance once installed.
Durable and weatherproof for long-term protection.
Versatile for various internal and external applications.
Quick and easy to install over existing structures.
Guaranteed against warping or cracking by Eurocell.

Cons

Requires existing timber to be in sound condition underneath.

Info needed: Specific tools may be required for installation.

Setup & Installation

Installing the Eurocell 9mm Fascia Cover Board is designed to be straightforward for DIYers and professionals alike.

Preparation: Ensure the existing surface (timber fascia, window sill, etc.) is clean, dry, and free from loose debris or rot. Any significantly damaged timber should be repaired or replaced before capping.
Measurement: Accurately measure the length required. Remember, the boards come in 5-meter lengths and various widths.
Cutting: Use appropriate cutting tools (e.g., fine-toothed saw or PVC saw) for a clean, straight edge. Ensure cuts are precise for a snug fit.
Fixing: The boards are typically fixed using appropriate adhesive and/or non-corrosive screws (e.g., stainless steel or UPVC-specific screws). For fascia, secure through the existing timber. For internal uses, ensure a strong, even bond.
Joints: If joining multiple boards, use purpose-made jointing trims or ensure a clean, neat butt joint for a seamless finish.

Compatibility

This product is compatible with:

Existing sound timber fascia boards.
Various internal window sill types.
Standard window reveal constructions.
Common pipework boxing applications.

*Note*: It is crucial that the underlying timber or surface is structurally sound, as the cover board is a cosmetic and protective layer, not a structural one.

Care & Maintenance

One of the key benefits of Eurocell Fascia Cover Boards is their *maintenance-free* nature.

Cleaning: Simply wipe down with warm soapy water and a soft cloth to remove dirt or grime. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the PVC-u surface.
Inspection: Periodically check for any signs of damage or dislodgement, especially after extreme weather.
No painting, sanding, or sealing is required, ever.
