Many home designs feature a panel of trim that runs horizontally just under the perimeter of the roof. While commonly referred to as trim, the more technical term for this material is fascia. Fascia board is often viewed by a homeowner as a purely aesthetic material, and it is true that it typically is painted an attractive color that adds to the curb appeal of the property. However, it also has a functional purpose in the home design. Because of this, it is important that it be well maintained and repaired as needed. Goose Creek roofing companies can assist with all types of fascia board repair and replacement projects.
Fascia board plays an important role in helping the roof protect the structure of the home from weather related damage. Some types of fascia board also promote energy efficiency or air circulation. The general condition of the fascia is often impacted by or related to roof and soffit condition. These various components of the roof structure work together to provide a number of important benefits, and when one is weakened through damage, the condition of the property can be compromised.
