How to Choose Soffit and Fascia for Your Home

The soffit and fascia board may be often overlooked, but they contribute greatly to the longevity and performance of your roofing system. When they’re already old and damaged, make sure to have them promptly replaced. But how exactly do you pick the soffit and fascia board that works best for your home? Patriot Roofing LLC, the area’s premier  gutter installation  and exterior home improvement company, shares some handy tips.

1. Consider the material.  Soffit and fascia boards are available in different materials. Read up on each material’s advantages to help you decide. For instance, metal–like steel and aluminum–is non-flammable, long-lasting and low-maintenance. Vinyl is a solid option that’s water-resistant, easy to clean and extremely versatile. Wood, meanwhile, offers warmth and elegance while allowing for greater flexibility.

If you have trouble deciding, just consult a trusted  roof repair  and siding replacement contractor like Patriot Roofing. Our professional team is always ready and able to help you explore your available choices and decide on the soffit and fascia material that will suit your specific needs. We’ll also make sure they’re just the right size for your home.

2. Match them with your home.  This means taking color into account when choosing a new soffit and fascia board. You’ll want them to accentuate your home’s architectural style or exterior palette, not detract from it. For this reason, you should look into tones that can beautifully complement your siding and roof. Do you want a safe and classic choice? White is the way to go.

3.  Don’t overlook ventilation.  One of the primary functions of the soffit is to ensure proper airflow in the roof space. To prevent heat and moisture buildup, which can lead to mold and rot, you’ll want to choose soffit boards with vents. Ask your top  roofing  expert, Patriot Roofing LLC, about your best options.
