FAQs

Can I use these end caps on any fascia board?

These are designed for standard PVC fascia boards. Verify your board profile matches the dimensions of the cap before installation.

What type of glue should I use?

The manufacturer recommends using superglue specifically formulated for rigid PVC applications.

Is the end cap UV resistant?

Yes, Freefoam components are designed for outdoor use and are built to withstand exposure to sunlight and moisture.

Can I paint this end cap if the color does not match perfectly?

It is generally recommended to use the cap as provided to maintain the integrity of the finish; painting may affect the warranty and durability of the material.

Is 300mm long enough for all boards?

300mm is provided as a versatile length that can be cut down to fit most standard fascia widths.

End cap does not sit flush against the board.

Check the cut edge of the fascia board for burrs or debris. Ensure the cut made on the end cap itself is perfectly square.

Ensure the surface is completely dry and free from any oil or silicone residues before applying the glue.
