Soffit and Fascia Installation Costs – A Complete Price Guide

Soffit and Fascia Installation Costs – A Complete Price Guide

Soffits and fascias form part of what is called the 'roofline', which provides your home's first line of defence against the elements. As such choosing the right soffits and fascias is imperative. But how much do soffits and fascias cost? This blog will explore all the factors which could affect the price of your new soffits and fascias.

What Are Soffits and Fascias?

Firstly, what are soffits and fascias?

Fascias

The fascia board is mounted at the point where the roof meets the outer wall and runs along the lower edge of the roof. It is fixed directly to the lower ends of the roof trusses and supports the bottom row of roof tiles. The fascia also carries all the guttering.

Soffits

The soffit is tucked away under the fascia and is the board that you will see the most of from street level. The soffit must be ventilated either within the soffit board itself or over the top of the board. Without adequate ventilation, condensation will form in the roof area, increasing the risk of timber decay.

How Much Does Soffit and Fascia Installation Cost?

The cost to replace your soffits and fascias will depend on a variety of factors, from the size of your home and the type of material you choose, to the cost of labour and scaffolding. However, an approximate cost is £150 per linear meter. This means the cost of replacing soffits and facias on a standard semi-detached house will be approximately £2,750 excluding additional costs such as labour, scaffolding and waste removal.

How Long Does Soffit and Fascia Installation Take?

The time it takes to install a soffits and fascia will depend on several factors, such as the size of your home as well as its shape. However, in general, it will take a professional roughly two to three days to install your new soffits and fascias.

Factors That Affect Soffit and Fascia Installation Costs

As mentioned above, there are a few factors that may affect the installation cost of your new soffit and fascia:

The size of your home

Obviously the size of your home will have an impact on the cost of installation. The larger the building, the more expensive the installation cost will be.

Complexity

If your home is an unusual shape or has many corners, it may take longer to install the soffit and fascia due to the complexity of the project. This will then impact the cost.

Removal

You may need old soffits and fascias removing before the new can be installed. This will mean an additional cost to both remove and dispose of your old soffits and fascias.

Can You Install Soffits and Fascias Yourself?

Whilst it is possible to install soffits and fascias yourself if you have the knowledge, tools, and necessary safety equipment, we always recommend employing the services of a professional. This will ensure that the installation is correct and compliant.
