Product Information

Full details

The Freefoam Fascia Bargeboard Finial is designed for homeowners and professional installers looking to provide a clean, finished appearance to roof apexes. Its primary benefit is providing a robust cover for bargeboard joints while accommodating natural thermal expansion, ensuring the roofline remains weather-tight. Users should note that proper installation requires a specific combination of adhesive and sealant to allow for material movement, as rigid mounting can cause structural stress over time.

FAQs

What is the purpose of the bargeboard finial?

It covers the joint between two bargeboards at the roof apex for aesthetic appeal and weather protection.

Can I glue both sides of the finial?

No. You should glue only one side and use a low-modulus silicone on the other to accommodate thermal expansion.

What is the total length of this finial?

This unit is 335mm in length.

Is this finial compatible with other brands of fascia?

While designed for Freefoam systems, it may be used with others if the dimensions and profile match, but compatibility cannot be guaranteed.

How do I maintain the grey finish?

Clean periodically with mild soapy water. Avoid abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners.

What material is this product made from?

The finial is constructed from durable, weather-resistant PVC.

Troubleshooting

Finial appears loose after installation

Check that the adhesive side has cured completely; if it remains loose, re-apply the adhesive ensuring both surfaces are clean and dry.

Cracking or stress marks near the apex

This often occurs if both sides were glued rigidly. Ensure one side is sealed with flexible, low-modulus silicone to allow for thermal movement.

Water ingress behind the finial

Ensure the low-modulus silicone bead is continuous and unbroken along the edge that is designed to move.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Clean and seamless aesthetic finish for rooflines
  • Designed specifically to withstand thermal expansion
  • Easy to integrate with existing Freefoam fascia systems
  • Low maintenance requirement due to durable PVC material
  • Professional grade finish

Cons

  • Requires specific installation method (glue and silicone)
  • Limited to specific color options (Grey)
  • Not intended for load-bearing applications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For effective installation, ensure the bargeboards are securely fixed before attaching the finial. The critical installation step involves a two-part approach: apply adhesive to one side of the finial to secure it firmly to one board, and apply a low-modulus silicone sealant to the other side. This method creates a weather-tight barrier while granting the PVC sufficient room to expand across the joint without cracking. Regular care involves simple cleaning with a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to maintain the grey finish. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents or solvents that could degrade the PVC surface.
