No. These are non-load bearing cosmetic boards and should never be used as a structural component.

You can easily cut the uPVC material using a standard fine-toothed hand saw or a power miter saw with a blade suitable for plastic.

No, the woodgrain finish is an integral part of the manufacturing process, meaning it will not peel or flake like paint.

No, the boards come ready to install and require no priming, painting, or finishing work.

Yes, provided the old timber is sound, dry, and level. If the timber is rotting, it should be replaced before installing the new soffit.

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and ensure they are laid flat to avoid warping.

Ensure the boards are stored flat and supported along their entire length before installation to prevent permanent deformation.

Ensure that the tongue and groove are fully engaged during installation; if a gap persists, check that the underlying support structure is perfectly straight.

Check that the drill bit or nail gun setting is appropriate for uPVC; avoid over-tightening as this can compress the hollow profile.
