Fascia boards and soffits form the visible edge of your roofline, and when they deteriorate they not only look unsightly but can allow water, pests, and birds to enter your roof space. Apex UK Roofing provides expert fascia and soffit replacement services in Guildford and across Surrey, transforming your roofline with durable, maintenance-free materials.
Fascias are the vertical boards fixed to the ends of the roof rafters at the eaves, providing a neat finish and a mounting point for the guttering system. Soffits are the horizontal boards that close the gap between the fascia and the wall, sealing the underside of the roof overhang and providing ventilation to the roof space through integral vents. When these boards deteriorate, typically due to water damage, fungal decay, or UV degradation of old paint, they compromise both the appearance and the functional protection of your roofline. Our replacement service in Guildford involves safely removing the old timber or uPVC boards, inspecting and repairing any damaged rafter ends or structural timbers beneath, and installing new fascias and soffits in high-quality materials.
We fit 18mm uPVC fascia boards, 9mm uPVC soffit boards with ventilation strips where required, and matching corner trims, joint covers, and accessories for a seamless finish. We also offer composite and cladded timber options for properties where uPVC is not appropriate or desired. For properties in Guildford, where the historic county town of Surrey with a wealth of period properties, steep hillside housing, and modern developments requiring diverse roofing expertise, we combine our fascia and soffit work with new guttering installation when the existing system is also in need of replacement, providing a complete roofline renovation at competitive combined pricing.
We inspect your existing fascias, soffits, and bargeboard on your Guildford property, checking for rot, damage, and the condition of the underlying rafter feet.
We help you choose the right material, colour, and profile for your property from our range of uPVC, composite, and timber options.
We carefully remove old boards, repair any damaged rafter ends, and install new fascias and soffits with all necessary ventilation, trims, and fixings.

Common signs include peeling or flaking paint, visible rot or soft spots when prodded, warping or bowing of the boards, gaps appearing between boards allowing daylight into the roof space, birds or wasps nesting behind deteriorated boards, and water staining or dripping from behind the fascia. If you can see any of these signs on your Guildford property, it is worth getting a professional assessment to prevent further damage to the underlying structure.
Fascia and soffit replacement costs in Guildford depend on the length of roofline, the height and access requirements, the materials chosen, and whether gutters are being replaced at the same time. As a guide, a full fascia and soffit replacement for a typical three-bedroom semi in Surrey costs between 1,500 and 3,000 pounds in uPVC. Combined packages including new gutters offer better value than doing the work separately. We provide free, no-obligation quotations.
For most properties, uPVC is the better choice for fascias and soffits because it is completely rot-proof, never needs painting, resists UV degradation, and maintains its appearance for 25 to 30 years or more. Timber requires regular painting or staining and will eventually rot, especially in the exposed position at the roof edge. However, for listed buildings or properties in conservation areas where planning rules require timber, we can supply and fit pre-treated timber boards finished with quality exterior paint.
Yes, it is possible to replace fascias and soffits while retaining existing gutters, provided the gutters are in good condition. However, since the guttering has to be removed to access the fascia boards, it is often more cost-effective to replace everything together. New fascias with old gutters can also look mismatched. We will advise you on the most sensible approach for your property and can show you the cost saving of combining the work.
