    Thinking of attempting replacing soffit & fascia on a single story Building with upvc

    I cant find the soffit in the width I need - 210mm. What now? Do I buy wider and cut width?

    Thanks for any advise

    Cut the soffit perpendicular into 210mm pieces and fit them into a j rail at the wall. You will probably need to nail some timber to bring it down level with the fascia board.

    Then fit the pvc fascia on so it holds the soffit up.


    Dont forget the events in the soffit and through old timber soffit.


    Drill a little hole in the cover slips so you dont break them when you nail them on.
