ROOFLINE

If you want your home to be protected against potential water damage you need to have good quality fascias, soffits and bargeboards – all integral parts of UPVC roofline. Too many property owners persist with their old timber cladding and come to regret it as timber very easily rots and once your cladding starts to rot there isn’t much you can do to repair it.

Full Replacement or Cap-Over – There is always the temptation to try and fit capping boards over rotting timber fascias to save money, but they very rarely last and once the rotting timber becomes re-exposed to the weather the problem can quickly get worse. It’s much better in the long-term to commission a full replacement as then you won’t need to be so concerned about it.

UPVC Roofline Versus Softwood Timber – Softwood timber is notoriously porous and once it begins to absorb rainwater it starts to rot away. UPVC roofline is resistant to the weather and therefore also resistant to rotting. The one bit of upkeep UPVC roofline needs is a wipe down with a wet cloth every few months to make it gleam.

You mustn’t overlook the importance of your bargeboards as they play a major role in protecting your roof from the weather and keep your roof lining consistent and free from holes or gaps. Softwood timber simply cannot be compared to UPVC bargeboards in terms of consistency in performance – they won’t let you down!

The installation of UPVC bargeboards will eliminate one very time-consuming task – repainting. Softwood timber requires frequent repainting but UPVC bargeboards are completely paint-free and come in various styles and colours.

All of your guttering needs can be taken care of by ERG. The functionality of our UPVC guttering will make a world of difference to your roof performance and your home will be so much more pleasant to look at once the product has been installed. We have UPVC guttering in five styles and four separate colours to help buyers finding a type of guttering that will massively outshine the guttering it is replacing.

So that no debris or obstructions clog up your guttering we recommend that you add Gutter Guard protection. This will prevent any leaves, twigs, moss or bird nests from stopping water travelling through the guttering. You can also add an insect guard above the vented soffit boards to stop the possible infestation occurring.
