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 Wetherby
Wetherby is a Georgian magnesian limestone market town with substantial later housing around it. Magnesian limestone is soft and porous, and scours visibly under too much pressure — one of the surfaces where the wrong lance leaves a permanent mark.
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 Wetherby
What we are usually quoting in Wetherby is Georgian and Victorian limestone townhouses near the centre, and a large stock of modern detached housing around it — and that is half the price on its own, because it sets the size of the job.
The other half is access: among the easiest on the patch — the newer estates have driveways and side access, and the older centre is mostly two storeys.
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.
It is sheltered, low-lying and drier than the moor-edge towns to the west. Wetherby is about 11 miles from our base in Harrogate, comfortably inside the patch we cover.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What happens if fascia rots?
The gutter loses its fixing and starts to sag, which stops it draining and puts more water into the same wall. Behind that, the rot moves into the rafter feet — and a rafter end is a structural repair rather than a board swap. It is a problem that gets more expensive the longer it is left, quite quickly.
How often should fascia be replaced?
uPVC fascias last twenty-five years or more and often outlive the guttering on them. Timber needs painting every four to six years and lasts as long as that is kept up. In practice most replacements happen because a gutter leaked for years and rotted the board behind it, not because the board reached an age.
