The roofline — the gutters, fascias and soffits that run along the edge of the roof — does a quiet but important job: getting rainwater off the roof and away from the walls. When it fails, it tends to fail slowly, and the damage shows up as damp walls and rotten timber rather than an obvious leak.
We repair and replace rainwater goods and roofline across Leicester and the Midlands.
Guttering and downpipes
Blocked, sagging or split gutters spill water straight down the wall, which over time means damp inside and saturated brickwork outside. We clear, repair or replace guttering and downpipes so rainwater goes where it's supposed to.
Fascias and soffits
The fascia carries the guttering and closes off the ends of the roof timbers; the soffit boards the underside. Keeping them sound protects the roof edge and the timbers behind them, and keeps the eaves ventilated so the roof space can breathe. We replace tired timber and worn boards with clean, low-maintenance finishes.
Best done with the roof
Roofline work is often most efficient alongside a re-roof or repair, while access and scaffolding are already in place — one visit rather than two.
