We look at the job and give you a price. Nothing to pay if you don’t go ahead.
Why it matters
The fascia is what the gutter hangs on. Once the timber behind it has gone soft the brackets have nothing to hold, and the problem stops being the boards and starts being the roof edge.
Working in Ripon
Limestone and pantile together, which is the combination that most rewards a gentler wash and most punishes a hard one.
How the job runs
Strip the old boards and expose the rafter feet, which is the only way to see what state they are actually in.
From there the method is the same wherever we do it — the fascias and soffits page sets out all five stages, and what a proper job includes.
What it costs in Ripon
What we are usually quoting in Ripon is Georgian and Victorian around the market square, post-war semis and bungalows beyond it — and that is half the price on its own, because it sets the size of the job.
The other half is access: generally easy — a small, flat city with off-street parking on most of the newer streets, and the market square properties reachable outside market days.
Every quote is free and fixed before anything starts, and there is no call-out fee. As a guide, £1,200–£3,000 for a typical three-bedroom house is the typical range for this work in the UK — including guttering; rafter repairs are additional. That is the market rather than a quote: yours is priced on your actual property, and the fascias and soffits page lists everything that moves it.
When to do it
Any time of year, weather permitting. It wants a dry run because the roof edge is open while the work is going on.
There is open, low-lying country either side, with damp carried off the Ure. Ripon is about 11 miles from our base in Harrogate, comfortably inside the patch we cover.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
How to tell if fascia board is rotten?
Press it. Sound timber resists; rotten timber gives, and a screwdriver goes in without much effort. The other signs are paint flaking in sheets, a gutter that has started to sag away from the boards, dark staining running down from the gutter line, and birds getting in at the soffit.
How much does it cost to fit new soffits and fascias?
Typically £1,200 to £3,000 for a three-bedroom house including new guttering. What moves it is the length of the run, the number of gables and corners, the access, and how much of the rafter ends behind the boards turn out to need cutting back.
