Your residential roofing system has several components that work together to protect your home from the elements. Among them are soffits and fascias that help reduce the risk of water penetration, debris accumulation and pest infestation. They are essential to your roof’s ventilation and aesthetic appeal.
Here are the signs that’ll tell you when you need to get new soffits and fascias.
Soffits and fascias are made to prevent pests and small animals from entering your roof and attic. When they are in poor condition, they will fail to do their job. If you see creatures crawling up your roof, make sure to get a professional inspection. Don’t wait too long if your roofer says your fascia and soffit require replacement.
You want your home to look as pleasing as possible, but that would be difficult if your soffit and fascia have cracks and peeling paint. Gaps or cracks can lead to leaks and costly water damage. Contact your contractor right away if you see faults on these parts of your roof.
Soffits and fascia help in keeping your attic well-ventilated. Insufficient ventilation in this part of your home can indicate that your soffits and fascia are blocked or in bad shape. If they have been compromised, be sure to get a replacement immediately.
