Your soffits and fascia boards might not always be the first thing you notice about your home—but they are essential for both protection and appearance. At City Build Contractors, we specialise in soffit and fascia services in Chelsea, providing long-lasting solutions that protect your home from water ingress, damp, and pest intrusion, while also enhancing its curb appeal.

Whether you own a period townhouse near the King’s Road or a modern apartment along the Thames, our experienced roofline specialists ensure your soffits and fascia are fitted to the highest standards, using materials that suit both your home’s character and Chelsea’s unique climate.

What Are Soffits & Fascia, and Why Do They Matter?

• Fascia Boards

1. Run along the lower edge of your roof, just behind the guttering.
2. Provide support for the gutters, holding the weight of rainwater.
3. Seal and protect the exposed edges of the roof timbers.
4. Create a neat, finished roofline that boosts kerb appeal.

• Soffits
  1. Installed underneath the fascia, bridging the gap between the roof edge and your walls.
  2. Provide essential ventilation, allowing airflow into the loft to prevent condensation and rot.
  3. Protect against birds, rodents, and insects making nests in your roofline.
  4. Give the underside of your roof a smooth, tidy finish.

When working together, soffits and fascia defend your home against weather damage, while adding an attractive frame to your roofline.

Signs You May Need New Soffits & Fascia

Chelsea’s mix of historic and modern homes means roofline wear can differ depending on age and materials. Look out for these common issues:

• Cracked, peeling or flaking paint (common on older timber boards).
• Sagging gutters caused by weakened fascia support.
• Rotting or damp timber from prolonged water exposure.
• Birds or pests entering the roof space through gaps.
• Condensation or mould in your loft due to poor ventilation.
• Warping or discolouration on older uPVC boards.

If you notice any of these, it’s best to act quickly—small issues can lead to major roof damage if ignored.
