Rotten fascia and soffit timber is best replaced in maintenance-free uPVC with ventilation built in in Lacock. Lacock is a National Trust village, almost entirely listed — medieval and Tudor timber-framed and stone cottages with clay-tile and stone-slate roofs, under the strictest conservation control in the county. On this kind of stock, the common problems are listed-building roof repairs, hand-made clay tile and stone-slate matching, and heavy moss from the watermeadow humidity — and knowing which you are dealing with is the difference between a lasting fix and money wasted.
Fascia and soffit replacement in Lacock is driven primarily by the age of the housing stock. The National Trust medieval village properties make up the bulk of calls — period timber fascia that requires correct profiling to match original. Rotten fascia causes gutters to pull away, allows water ingress behind the eaves, and provides access for birds and vermin into the roof space.
UPVC fascia and soffit is our standard recommendation on most Lacock properties — no maintenance, 25-year product guarantee, and available in profiles that match most original fascia dimensions. Conservation area properties require timber fascia where UPVC would change the building's character. We always assess fascia condition when attending for guttering repairs — new gutters fixed to rotten fascia boards will pull away within a few years.
We check fascia, soffit and bargeboard condition — genuinely, not through the paint — and the eaves ventilation.
Sound timber can be capped; rotten timber is replaced. We won't cap over rot.
A fixed price with fascia, soffit, guttering and access itemised.
New uPVC fitted with ventilated soffit strips or over-fascia vents to keep the loft dry.
Gutters come off to access the fascia anyway, so we renew them at the same time.
| Job | Typical duration |
|---|---|
| Fascia section replacement | half day |
| Full roofline (three-bed semi) | 1–2 days |
| Detached full roofline | 2–3 days |
| Bargeboard replacement (per gable) | half day |
| Capping over sound timber | 1 day |
Roofline work runs year-round; uPVC installation isn't weather-critical, though we won't work the eaves in high wind.
Lacock's status as a preserved historic village means listed-building consent and natural materials are effectively mandatory, and access down the narrow medieval streets is tightly constrained. Pavement scaffold and skip permits in Lacock go through Wiltshire Council; on tight streets like East Street, West Street, Church Street we allow extra time for setup and access.
Fascia and soffit work runs £100–£150 per linear metre, or £1,500–£4,000 for a full roofline. Lacock pricing tracks Chippenham, adjusted for access on Lacock's stock.

A day or two at the eaves with some old-timber debris and gutter removal — we sheet below, protect the beds, and clear all waste. You do not need to stay home for external work.
Fascia and soffit work runs in most weather; the ventilated soffits we fit as standard protect Chippenham's older lofts from condensation. Lacock sits low by the Avon watermeadows, so humidity is high, moss growth fast and drying slow.
"Full UPVC fascia and soffit replacement — original timber completely rotten. Done in two days, gutters repositioned to correct fall. Excellent finish."
"Soffit boards replaced after birds had been accessing the eaves. New ventilated soffit, correctly sealed. Quick, tidy job."
"Partial fascia replacement — two sections rotten. They correctly identified only two boards needed doing, not the full run. Honest and fair."
