Fascia and Soffit Replacement Cost
Replacing fascias and soffits in uPVC, with new gutters, typically costs £70 to £110 per metre as a guide, with the old timber taken off and disposed of in that figure. For a whole house, expect roughly £900 to £2,000 for the front and back of a mid terrace, and £1,800 to £3,500 for a bigger semi or detached that also has bargeboards. Your actual price depends on the length of roofline, its height, and what we find at the rafter ends once the old boards are off.

What decides the price
Length. Fascia and soffit is priced along the run of the roofline, so a house with more eaves and gables costs more. Bargeboards on gable ends add to the run.
Height and access. A bungalow can often be done from a tower; a three-storey house needs scaffold. Access is a real part of the price.
What is behind the boards. Once old boards come down, the ends of the rafters are exposed. Where they have softened from years of damp, they are cut back and repaired so the new fascia has something solid to fix to; skipping that step is why some new rooflines start to dip within a few years.
Guttering. Most people replace the gutters at the same time, because the old ones have to come down anyway.
Price per metre or per foot?
We work in metres. If you have seen fascia and soffit prices per foot, divide a per-metre figure by about 3.3 to compare. Be wary of comparing per-metre prices alone: one quote may include stripping the old timber, rafter repairs, gutters and scaffold, and another may not.
Repair, paint or replace?
If timber fascias are sound and only the paint has failed, painting is cheaper in the short term but needs repeating. Where boards are rotten in places, a section can sometimes be repaired, but if one part has gone the rest is usually close behind. Replacing in uPVC removes the painting cycle entirely.
Combine it with other work
Access is usually the single biggest extra on a roofline quote, so if the roof itself also needs work, doing both under one scaffold saves paying for it twice. If your roof also needs attention, ask us to look at both. Call 07840 996627, Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm, or see fascias, soffits and guttering.
