What is a fascia board? Sometimes also called soffit board, fascia is a board running horizontally under a roof edge. It covers the openings between the rafters of the roof. Typically consisting of wood, wood substitute, or metal, the fascia board along with the soffit, encloses the attic space of the home. The fascia commonly helps to hold up, and stabilize gutters.
Fascia
Fascia can be found in many of today’s modern homes. However, older Colonial or Victorian homes with ornate rafter tails will not have fascia boards. These older homes were originally created without fascia because it was believed that the big roof overhangs, created by these ornate rafter tails, were adequately large enough to repel water far enough away from the foundation of the home. Although this is often the belief, it is not always true. Water can still find a way back into the foundation of your home. This water can also damage siding, paint, windows, and doors.
If your home’s fascia is damaged, rotted, or missing completely, it is recommended that this is fixed. The Brothers That Just Do Gutters can repair your fascia with an aluminum fascia wrap, which comes in multiple sizes, or we can replace the fascia completely.
It is often difficult to tell if the fascia is rotted without first removing the gutter itself. However, if water has been running between the fascia and gutter for some time, then there is a high probability of rotted fascia. A rotted fascia board cannot properly support a gutter system designed to carry the weight of sustained winter rainfall and soaked debris.
Soffit
Soffit is the layer of wood, vinyl or aluminum that extends from the bottom of the fascia to the top piece of your wall board. Together, they protect the rafters from weather, moisture, and allow air to flow through soffits and vents. Airflow is important in the enclosed attic space to keep the temperatures equal. If your home’s soffit needs to be replaced or you do not have soffit, we can install it for you. We currently offer and install perforated vinyl soffit.
Roof Straps
In the cases where a home has no fascia, and installing fascia is not an option, The Brothers That Just Do Gutters are able to install a gutter without the fascia by using roof straps. The roof straps attach to the hidden hanger inside the gutter and secure right onto the roof. If the roof is older, it is not recommended to lift up the shingles to insert the strap. This can damage or break shingles. In most cases the roof strap must be secured on top of the shingles. Installing a gutter system using this process is strong, but is not often as strong as installing with a fascia. Roof hangers are also not as aesthetically pleasing. If your home has a slate, tile or cedar shingle roof, it is highly recommended that you do not use the roof strap method.
Here are some reasons why having a fascia board (in good condition) is the best option:
Another option for homes that currently do not have fascia and/or installation is not possible, is to build out the overhang. Then install fascia on this extended overhang, which we’d then install the gutters on.

Posted on GoogleFascia Board Questions, Answered
Fascia is the horizontal board along the roof edge that covers the ends of the rafters, and it is what your gutters hang on. It can be wood, a wood substitute or metal, and together with the soffit it closes off the attic. When the fascia is solid, gutter hangers screw into it and hold the full weight of a gutter in a storm.
It is often hard to tell without taking the gutter down. If water has been running between the gutter and the fascia for some time, there is a high chance the board is rotted. Peeling paint, soft wood and a gutter that sags between hangers are other clues. A Solutionist checks it during your free estimate.
Yes. We can repair fascia with an aluminum fascia wrap, which comes in multiple sizes, or replace the board completely when the wood is too far gone. Either way, the gutter goes back up with new hangers so it holds through the wet season.
Yes. On homes with open rafter tails and no fascia, we can hang the gutter with roof straps that hook into the hidden hanger and secure onto the roof. It is strong, though not as strong as mounting to fascia. Straps are not recommended on slate, tile or cedar shingle roofs, and tile is common on Spanish-style LA homes. There, the better option is to build out the overhang and add fascia.
Yes. If your soffit needs to be replaced or your home does not have any, we can install it. We currently offer and install perforated vinyl soffit. Vented soffit lets air move through the attic, which helps keep the home cooler in a hot LA summer.
A gutter full of rain and soaked debris is heavy, and rotted fascia cannot hold the hangers carrying that weight. The screws loosen, the run sags, and the slope stops draining to the downspout. We replace the damaged board and reinstall the gutter with new hangers, so the system holds through a wet winter.
