Who do you call to replace fascia boards?

To replace fascia boards that are rotted or damaged, you should call professionals who specialize in exterior trim, roofing, and gutters, depending on extent of damage and cause. For minor fascia repair like small rot spots, patching, or painting, a general handyman or carpenter can handle job, typically charging 50 to 100 dollars per hour, and can replace small sections with rot-resistant material. For more extensive damage involving gutters, roof edge, and soffit, such as rot caused by gutter overflow from clogged gutters, ice dam damage, or pest entry, call a roofing contractor who has experience with fascia, soffit, and gutter systems, as they can assess roof, fascia, and gutters together, ensure proper drip edge installation, and replace fascia with proper support for gutters. Siding contractors also replace fascia, especially when installing vinyl or aluminum fascia that matches siding, and they can wrap fascia in aluminum for low maintenance. If fascia damage is due to water leak from roof, call roofer to fix roof leak first, then replace fascia. To find qualified professional, look for licensed and insured contractor with experience in fascia and soffit replacement, check reviews and references, and get multiple written estimates that detail materials, labor, and warranty. Ensure they inspect underlying cause such as clogged gutters or inadequate attic ventilation that caused fascia rot, as fixing only fascia without addressing cause leads to recurring damage and costly future repairs.
