Furthermore fascias and soffits can provide a pleasing finish to the roofline of your property
Your fascias and soffits have a lifespan. This is usually 10 years for quality hardwood fasicas and soffits and a little longer for UPVC (PVCu). Fascia and soffit boards need maintenance and will eventually need replacing. Of course, regular maintenance and inspection will aid the longevity of your fascia and soffits.

Roofing Terminology
Flat Roof – A roof which is almost level
Pitched Roof – A roof which slopes downwards. This roof usually has two sides which come together to form a central ridge
Gable Roof – A gable roof is a common roof type. The roof has two parts which slope downwards towards the walls. The two sides meet to form a central ridge and a triangle at each end.
Hip Roof – A hip roof is another common roof type. This category of roof has slopes on all sides.
Inverted Roof – An inverted roof is also called an “upside down” roof. This is because the waterproof layer is beneath the insulation as opposed to on top of it.
Green Roof – A green or eco roof is one that uses greenery (usually grass) as its outer covering.
Single Ply Roof – Wide width polymer roofing material for low sloped roofs.
Corrugated Roof – A roof made from a sheet of corrugated aluminium or steel
Rubber Roof – This type of roof is also called an EPDM roof (ethylene propylene diene terpolymer) and is basically made from sheets of overlapping rubber. Most commonly used on flat roofs.
Roof Flashing – Thin sheet of rust resistant metal (usually galvanised steel) to maintain a watertight roof. Roof flashing is installed around chimneys, skylights, dormer windows etc.
Roof shingle – Roof shingles can be made from different types of materials including asphalt, slate, bitumen, wood, metal etc. Shingles are usually flat and rectangular and are used as coverings for pitched roofs.
Fascia Board – Long straight board along the roof base that holds the gutter.
Soffit Board – Boards that sit between the wall and fascia boards
Gutters – A trough system that runs along the base of the roof. Gutters collect runoff rainwater from the roof, guide it to the downpipes which lead to the drain.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why roofing is important?
Roofs play an essential role in keeping your home weathertight, warm and energy efficient. In addition, roofs play an important part in making your property look aesthetically pleasing, giving it that ‘finishing touch’. Roofs also effectively ‘tie’ your outer walls together, making the completed structure rigid and stable. There are many different finishes and materials that can be used when carrying out roofing works and it is important to select the right materials for the job at hand. A professional roofing team will be able to guide you in selecting the right built up for your roof. Roofs are subject to constant wind loading and battering from the elements. Without a strong and effective roof, your home will be open to the elements, leading to a number of future issues.
When do roofs need to be replaced?
When carried out properly, the life expectancy of a new roof can be in excess of 50 years, however this may be reduced for flat felt roofs. The life expectancy of your roof will also be dependant on the location of your property. Naturally, roofs that are in more harsh environments will generally require replacing more frequently than roofs which are not as exposed. It is important to routinely check your roof for signs of wear, particularly around flashings, ridges, and hips. Check for any slipped tiles, excessive moss growth and leaks internally. If you are regularly spending money to have your roof repaired, or if you are experiencing excessive leaks, then it may be time to call an expert to have your roof replaced. Our specialist roofers will be able to survey your roof to determine the extent of any repairs required and will be able to provide an honest assessment of your roof’s remaining life expectancy.
Are roofs safe to walk on?
Many people assume that roofs are safe to walk on, but this is not always the case. Standing on a roof which is not designed to carry human impact loads can be very dangerous and may lead to fatal accidents. Before setting foot on any roof, you should assess the structure from within. Try to find out what the roof build up is, and take a risk assessment based approach to determine whether it is safe to walk on the roof or not. If possible, speak to the building designer, or a roofing professional. In some instances, roofs have designated walkways that are designed specifically for human foot traffic. If you are in any doubt as to whether it is safe to access your roof, then it is best to call a professional roofer. Our experienced team will be able to provide advice on the best way to work safely on your roof.
How can I tell if my roof needs to be repaired or replaced?
It is particularly difficult for an individual to identify if their roof needs repairing or replacing. Our roofers advise to regularly inspect your roof, around two to three times a year to check for any tell-tale signs of damage and/or wear and tear. This can be done with the naked eye but is better with a set of binoculars. Look for any curled or missing shingles, slipped shingles or tiles, torn flashing or internal leaks. For peace of mind we recommend having a professional roofer come and survey and inspect your roof. At Roofers Sheffield our professional roofing team offer a roof survey and inspection service. Contact today for more details
Which roofing sheet is the best?
Roofing sheets are available in many different materials grades and finishes to suit the application. It is hard to say which is best when it comes to your re-roofing project as it will all depend on several factors including your budget, the size of your roof, the pitch of your roof, the level of exposure, whether the roof will be walked on or not and what has been used on the roof previously. With that said, some of the most common roofing sheets available on the market are as follows:
Mineral felt – this is an encapsulated mix of a natural mineral base or other synthetic material and bituminous material such as asphalt, to make a highly waterproof sheet that is supplied on rolls. Felt is ideal for flat roofs, underlay and low pitch roofs.
Single Ply membrane – these are synthetic based waterproofing sheets usually made from plastics. They provide a highly watertight smooth finish to your roof and generally require less lap joints than felt. Single ply membranes may not be compatible with other roofing materials so the inclusion of a separation layer may be necessary.
Corrugated Metal Sheeting - This is a metal sheet that has a protective coating applied to prevent rust such as hot dip galvanized steel. Corrugated metal sheets are lightweight and can be used on large roofs to provide a cost-effective robust roof. The corrugated shape of the sheet aids water flow, strength and thermal expansion and contraction.
If you are in doubt as to the best solution for your roof, speak to one of our advisors today who will be able to guide you to the on the right roofing sheet for your project.
