Hellesdon sits north-west of Norwich and has one of the area's denser concentrations of 1950s and 1960s local-authority housing, much of which still has its original timber fascia boards — we replace and repair roof-lines across the suburb regularly.
Post-war houses in Hellesdon were typically built with slim, painted timber fascias and open-backed soffits. Fifty-plus years of Norfolk winters means many of these are now soft at the back where you cannot see it, even if the painted front face still looks reasonable. By the time you spot a water stain on the ceiling below, the rafter feet have usually been wet for some time.
We use uPVC capping over sound timber where the boards are marginal, and full replacement where they are not — we will tell you clearly which applies to your property. Hellesdon is a short drive from Poringland and we carry stock of standard profiles, so lead times are short. Call us to arrange a free roof-line inspection at your home.
