The Freefoam 175mm Fascia Board in Chartwell Green is designed for contractors and homeowners seeking a low-maintenance, aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional timber roofline materials. Ideal for both new build projects and home refurbishments, these boards attach directly to rafter feet to provide a robust, weather-resistant finish. While this product offers superior durability and a classic woodgrain appearance, users should note that as a rigid PVC-U board, it requires precise measurement and specific fixings to ensure long-term structural integrity and seamless integration with existing soffit systems.

While technically possible, it is highly recommended to remove old, rotten timber to ensure the boards have a solid, dry surface to fix to and to prevent moisture entrapment.
This board is 18mm thick, which makes it strong enough to be used as a full replacement for timber fascia.
Yes, the PVC-U is formulated to be UV stable, meaning it resists fading and discoloration significantly better than traditional painted timber.
Use 65mm or 50mm stainless steel plastic-headed pins/nails to ensure the fixings are rust-proof and match the board color.
Yes, they can be cut using a standard fine-toothed PVC hand saw or a circular saw with a blade suitable for plastic.
Freefoam products are manufactured to be long-lasting and are generally recyclable at the end of their service life.
Check that fixings are spaced correctly and ensure they are not over-tightened, allowing for natural thermal expansion.
Verify that the soffit board thickness matches the rebate gap and ensure no debris is trapped inside the channel.
Ensure all soap residue is rinsed away with clean water; avoid using chemical solvents that can strip the finish.
Installation requires standard carpentry tools including a fine-toothed saw, a hammer, and appropriate weather-resistant, plastic-headed nails. Ensure the rafter ends are level before fixing; if the rafters are uneven, use packing pieces to ensure the boards align perfectly. Regarding compatibility, these boards are intended for use with standard 9mm or 10mm soffit boards that fit into the integrated rebate. To care for the boards, simply wash them periodically with warm, soapy water to remove dust and grime. Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials or harsh solvents, as these can damage the Chartwell Green woodgrain finish.
