The Purpose Of The Fascia

With Their Location, Fascia Acts As A Backsplash For Your Home.

While you may not have known about these little boards, they play a key role in protecting your roof against damage. Fascia line your roof and can at times be found beneath your gutters. During storms, rain rolls down your roof and lands in your gutters. Your gutters try and carry all of this away from your roofing structure, draining it and depositing it without eroding your property or allowing it to affect or damage your home. Your gutter system takes on more than just water when it rains, however. Debris, such as leaves or sticks, can get caught in your gutter. If enough wear happens, pieces of your roofing material can find its way down your roof and into this ever-important system. All of these elements can build up in your gutters, leading to a clog in the line or an inability to drain as quickly as possible.

This is where your fascia comes in. Your fascia acts as a backboard for the gutter system and barrier for your roof. No matter what material your roof may be, its structure can become vulnerable to rain, pests, and more. On rainy days, if your gutter becomes overfilled by water and other objects, your fascia will take the splashback from water, saving your roof from structural damage. It prevents pests and critters from burrowing into your roofing system and invading your home. With this in place, you never have to worry about if your home is being colonized by pests. Fascia is an unsung hero for roofing systems. It prevents:

  • Mold
  • Mildew
  • Wood Rot
  • Pests 
  • Squirrels
  • And More

The best way to tell if you are in need of fascia board repair is to either have a roof inspection completed by a roofing contractor or to safely inspect them yourself. Have a friend or family member spot you while you climb a ladder to inspect your roof. Because of the placement and protection fascia offers, the signs of wear are specific:

  • Discoloration
  • Peeling Paint
  • Broken Down Areas
  • Wood Rot

Wood rot, discoloration, and peeling paint are all signs of water damage to your fascia board. Broken down areas can be a sign of two different causes. While water damage could be the cause, the usual contender is pest and animal damage. If eaten through you could have a larger problem on hand of pest invasion. All of these can lead to larger damage down the line.
