The Freefoam 225mm UPVC Fascia Capping Board (FW225WGB) is designed for homeowners and contractors looking to provide a durable, low-maintenance, and aesthetic finish to rooflines. This 10mm thick board is ideal for over-capping existing sound timber fascias or as a decorative cladding for new timber backing boards. While it provides an elegant Black Ash Woodgrain finish that mimics natural timber, users should note that precise installation with specific fixing intervals is required to manage thermal expansion effectively.

No, this is a 10mm capping board and is designed specifically to be fixed onto a solid timber substrate.
Use a fine-toothed hand saw or a power miter saw with a blade suitable for plastic to ensure a clean, smooth cut.
Depending on your local environment, an annual wash with soap and water is usually sufficient to keep them looking fresh.
Yes, always use stainless steel Polytop nails to prevent rust streaking and to match the finish of the board.
The board is designed to be UV-resistant, though some very minor lightening may occur over many years depending on sun exposure.
This is usually caused by fixing nails too tightly or at incorrect intervals. Loosen the fixings slightly to allow the material to move naturally with temperature changes.
Ensure that thermal expansion gaps were left during the initial installation; if the gaps are excessive, check that the boards are correctly secured to the backing timber.
Small, shallow scratches can sometimes be disguised with a matching touch-up pen specifically designed for UPVC woodgrain laminates.
Installation requires standard roofline tools including a hammer, saw, and measuring tape. Always use Polytop Nails that are color-matched to the Black Ash finish to ensure a seamless look.
