Ending the Repainting Cycle on Ipswich Rooflines
GC Fixings Ltd, a family run uPVC installer based near Ipswich, covers fascia and soffit replacement in Ipswich and the rest of Suffolk and Essex. uPVC fascias and soffits do not rot, warp or need repainting, which ends the cycle of sanding and painting that timber boards at the roof edge demand.
What is wrong with painted wooden fascia boards?
Painted boards at the roof edge ask for a ladder and a brush every few summers, and skipping that lets rot in. A uPVC roofline will not rot or flake, and cleaning it is the whole maintenance plan.
GC Fixings Ltd describes its team as uPVC installation specialists in Suffolk and Essex, GC Fixings Ltd Rayleigh with roofline at the centre of it. They guard the ends of the rafters and support the gutters, so a failing board is never only cosmetic.
How long does it take to replace soffits and fascias?
It depends on the size of the house and on what is found once the old boards come off, so a firm answer only comes after a survey. Rotten rafter ends behind old timber are the usual reason a job takes longer than planned.
What guarantee comes with a new roofline?
A ten year guarantee comes as standard with roofline and guttering installed by GC Fixings Ltd. GC Fixings Ltd adds that the products and finish should last well beyond that.
The value of any guarantee depends on the business standing behind it. Find out exactly what is covered before the job starts, then keep the document. It is also worth passing on if you sell, since a buyer will ask.
How do I replace soffits and fascias?
The old boards and gutters come down, the rafter ends are checked, then the new fascia is fixed along the roof edge with the soffit underneath. The gutter goes back on last, set to the right fall, with bird combs and eaves protection where the roof needs them.
Which glass works best in Ipswich windows?
Double glazing suits most homes, and triple glazing adds a further pane for extra insulation and quiet. GC Fixings Ltd fits both, with a minimum glass rating of A for energy efficiency.
There are choices within the glass too: Georgian bar, leaded, obscure for privacy, and textured. Privacy glass is the common choice for bathrooms and hallways.
