FAQs
What causes fascia boards to sag and why is it important to address the issue quickly?
Fascia boards sag when they are exposed to prolonged moisture, improper gutter support, insect or fungal damage, or undersized lumber. In Greenback’s humid climate, clogged or undersized gutters often overflow and saturate the wood, weakening fasteners and causing the board to bow. A sagging fascia can let water reach roof decking, soffits, and interior walls, leading to costly structural decay and mold. Prompt replacement prevents larger roof repairs and keeps gutters securely pitched for proper drainage.
How can I tell if my fascia or gutters need replacement rather than simple repair?
Look for these signs: (1) Visible bowing, cracking, or soft spots in the fascia when lightly probed with a screwdriver; (2) gutters pulling away, showing nail or screw heads; (3) paint that continually peels even after repainting; (4) water stains on soffits or inside attic eaves; and (5) recurring overflow despite cleaning. If two or more of these symptoms exist, replacement is the cost-effective solution because patching won’t restore structural strength or maintain consistent gutter slope.
What gutter materials and styles do you install for Greenback homeowners?
We offer seamless aluminum (our most popular choice), copper for historic or high-end homes, and galvanized or stainless steel for extra strength. Profiles include K-style (5" and 6"), half-round, and box gutter systems. Each system is custom-fabricated on-site to match your roofline, ensuring fewer joints and leaks. We also install hidden hangers for a clean look and optional 40-year factory-coated colors that complement your fascia trim.
How long will a typical fascia and gutter replacement project take, and will my roof be exposed to weather?
Most single-family homes in Greenback are completed in one day—two days for larger or two-story structures. We remove only the section we can replace the same day, so roof decking and attic spaces are never left exposed overnight. Our crews bring replacement lumber, pre-cut metal, and fasteners in advance to keep disruptions minimal. We also haul away old wood and metal, leaving your property clean.
Will replacing sagging fascia improve drainage and protect my home from water damage?
Yes. A straight, solid fascia provides the correct mounting surface so gutters hold their designed pitch—typically 1⁄4 inch of slope every 10 feet. Proper pitch sends rainwater to downspouts instead of pooling at the eaves. Combined with correctly sized downspouts, new gutters prevent foundation erosion, basement leaks, and staining on brick or siding. Many clients notice fewer ice dams in winter and reduced insect activity because standing water is eliminated.
