Fascia board, soffit and bargeboard replacement across Arnold. uPVC or timber, we protect the vulnerable edge of your roof and keep the finish looking sharp.
Arnold has Victorian terraces along Nottingham Road and Front Street, 1930s semis around Killisick Road, and large 1960s estates at Killisick and Bestwood Park. The elevated position 80-100m above the Trent Valley catches full force of easterly Lincolnshire winds, with 15-20 more frost nights per year than the sheltered city centre, which accelerates soffit rot and fascia deterioration, particularly on north-facing and west-facing elevations. Timber fascias on Victorian to 1960s properties along Killisick Lane absorb moisture through flaking paint, swell, and eventually rot from the back forward. By the time it is visible from ground level, the damage is often extensive.
We replace fascias and soffits in uPVC or timber depending on the property. For period homes on Killisick Lane and Front Street we offer timber replacement with proper primer and paint systems. For post-war stock we recommend maintenance-free uPVC in white, anthracite or woodgrain finish.
Realistic prices. Every job quoted individually, free, no obligation.
“Full fascia and soffit replacement on Killisick Lane. Old timber was rotten behind the paint. New anthracite uPVC looks sharp and no more maintenance.”
“Bargeboard replacement on our semi near Front Street. Timber was split and letting water behind the gutter brackets. Replaced in half a day.”
“Soffit vents fitted across the whole house on Nottingham Road. Condensation in the loft has dropped massively. Should have done it years ago.”
Full fascia and soffit replacement on a Arnold 3-bed semi costs £1,200-£3,000. Single elevation replacements run £400-£800.
For most Arnold properties, uPVC is the practical choice — maintenance-free and long-lasting. For period properties on Killisick Lane where timber is part of the character, we offer quality timber with proper paint systems.
Peeling paint, soft spots when pressed, visible rot, or gaps where the fascia meets the wall. If wasps or birds are entering your soffit area, there are holes that need attention.
Yes. Proper soffit ventilation prevents condensation in the roof space, which is a common cause of timber rot in older Arnold properties. We install vented soffit boards or disc vents.
Most single-storey fascia work can be done from ladders. Two-storey and three-storey properties on Killisick Lane and Front Street typically require scaffold for safe access. Scaffold cost is included in quotes.
Yes, and we recommend it. Replacing fascias while the guttering is still up is wasteful because the old guttering has to come off and go back on. Doing both together saves scaffold time and ensures the whole rainwater system is renewed.
Yes. Modern uPVC is available in white, anthracite, black, rosewood and golden oak. For exact colour matching on timber, we use RAL-matched exterior paint systems. We bring samples to the survey so you can see the options against your brickwork.
Yes. For projects over £5,000, we offer staged payments tied to milestones — deposit, mid-point and completion. You are never paying for work that has not been done. We accept bank transfer, cheque and card.
For planned work, booking 2-4 weeks ahead is typical. Summer months fill faster so spring booking is recommended for summer projects. Emergency work is same-day. We will always give you an honest timeline at the quotation stage.
Yes. We have a portfolio of completed projects across Nottingham including before and after photographs. Ask during your free survey and we will show you work on similar properties in your area.
We answer the phone personally, not through a call centre. Tell us what you have noticed and we will give you an honest assessment over the phone. If it needs a site visit, we arrange one within 48 hours. The survey is free and thorough — we check the full roof, not just the area you have flagged. You receive a written quote with clear pricing, material specifications and a realistic timeline. There is no pressure to proceed and no charge for the survey. If you go ahead, we schedule the work promptly and keep you updated throughout. We clean the site daily and your home is weathertight every evening.
Every job comes with a written 10-year workmanship guarantee. We carry £5 million public liability insurance and are registered with the National Federation of Roofing Contractors. All materials come with separate manufacturer warranties. If any issue arises within the guarantee period, we return and fix it at no charge. We have been serving Nottingham homeowners since 2005 and our reputation depends on standing behind our work.
Nottingham's housing stock spans every era from Victorian terraces to modern estates. Each type has different roofing materials, different failure patterns, and different repair requirements. A roofer who knows Nottingham can diagnose faster, specify the right materials first time, and anticipate problems before they become expensive. We have worked on roofs across every postcode in the city and surrounding areas for over two decades. That experience means faster diagnosis, better solutions, and fewer callbacks.
Arnold sits 80-100 metres above the Trent Valley on the exposed Killisick ridge. Properties here experience 15-20 additional frost nights per year compared to the sheltered city centre, and easterly winds from Lincolnshire drive rain horizontally into west-facing mortar beds at speeds that accelerate erosion by a factor of two compared to sheltered locations.
The Killisick estate was built in the early 1960s with concrete interlocking tiles fixed with galvanised iron nails. Fifty years of freeze-thaw cycling on this exposed ridge has corroded those nails faster than on any other Nottingham estate. We have re-roofed more properties on Killisick Lane than on any single street in our service area.
We reach Arnold in 15-20 minutes. The NG5 postcode generates our highest volume of wind damage emergency calls due to the ridge exposure, particularly during winter easterly storms.
Modern uPVC fascia and soffit boards are available in white, anthracite grey, black, rosewood, golden oak and Irish oak finishes. The anthracite and black options work well on Victorian and Edwardian properties where a dark finish complements the brickwork. For properties in conservation areas, we offer timber replacement with hardwood or treated redwood finished in any RAL colour. The timber option costs approximately 40 percent more than uPVC and requires maintenance every 5-7 years, but it is the appropriate choice where planning conditions or aesthetic standards require natural materials.
Rotten fascias in Arnold do not just look bad — they compromise the entire rainwater management system. Gutter brackets pull out of soft timber, causing the gutter to sag and overflow. Water entering behind the fascia runs along the rafter feet, rotting the structural timber that supports the roof edge. In severe cases, the rafter feet need cutting back and sister-jointing, which turns a £1,200 fascia replacement into a £3,000 structural repair. Every fascia replacement we do in Arnold includes an inspection of the rafter feet behind to catch this problem before it develops.
We ask for no more than 20 percent deposit on any job. The balance is due on completion and your satisfaction. We accept bank transfer, cheque and card payment. For larger projects over £5,000, we offer staged payments tied to milestones — typically deposit, mid-point and completion — so you are never paying for work that has not been done. Every payment triggers a receipt and your guarantee documentation is issued on final payment.
After the job is complete, we do a final walkthrough with you to check every detail. Any snags are fixed on the spot. We photograph the completed work for your records and for our portfolio. Your 10-year workmanship guarantee is issued in writing with our company details, the work specification, and the date of completion. If any issue arises within the guarantee period, call 0115 670 1242 and we will return to inspect and resolve it at no charge. We have been honouring this guarantee across Nottingham since 2005 and we have never refused a valid guarantee claim.
No call-out fees. No obligation. Honest quote from a local Arnold roofer.
