Three boards I'll put back up
Which one depends on how wet that eave stays.
-
Primed wood
- Where it fits
- Fits older eaves where the profile must match.
- Upkeep
- Sealed, painted, then repainted every few years.
-
PVC trim board
- Where it fits
- Fits wet spots under valleys and short overhangs.
- Upkeep
- It won't rot. An occasional wash covers upkeep.
-
Aluminum fascia wrap
- Where it fits

- Upkeep
- Baked finish, never needs paint.
Four things set your fascia price
Every roof fascia repair I quote starts with linear feet and how far the rot goes. Board-only rot is a straight swap. Rot in the rafter tails means my crew sisters new framing first. Material counts too.
Access matters as well. Detached single-family houses go off ladders. Attached row houses and two-family houses often mean working from the roof. Multi-family and mixed-use buildings can need scaffolding. I confirm your price at a roof edge inspection, and the estimate is free. If the gutter can't be rehung, see what a new gutter run costs.
Fascia answers before you book
I remove the gutter, cut out the rot, check the rafter tails, fit a new board, set drip edge and flashing, and rehang the gutter.
It depends on footage, rot depth, material and access. I price each job after seeing your edge, at no charge.
Yes, when the rest is solid. I scarf the new piece in at sound wood so the joint sheds water.
Yes. Wood and PVC get painted your trim color, and I'll hold aluminum samples against your eaves first.
