What Are Fascias And Soffits?
What is the difference between a fascia and a soffit?
Fascia and soffit boards are architectural elements that can be found along the eave area of properties. Fascias are the exposed horizontal boards that guttering is attached to with the use of gutter brackets. Fascia boards are available in different thicknesses, depending on the manufacturer, 16-18mm thick boards seem to be the most popular installed. Soffits are the boards located on the span that is beneath the rafter ends.
