Bargeboards & uPVC Cladding

Bargeboards run up the sloping gable edge, and they rot first because they take the weather from two directions. Johnson's Roofing replaces tired timber bargeboards and clads gable ends, dormer cheeks and porch edges in maintenance-free uPVC, colour matched to your fascias, soffits and guttering so the whole roofline reads as one job rather than three.

How we work

We check the bargeboard and the timber behind it from the access platform first, because a soft bargeboard usually means the roof edge needs attention too. Old boards come off, anything rotten is cut out and replaced, then new uPVC is fixed, the verge is made weathertight and everything is colour matched to the rest of the roofline.

Common questions

What is a bargeboard?

It is the board that runs up the sloping edge of a gable, closing off the roof timbers. Because it faces the weather on two sides it usually rots before the fascias do.

Can bargeboards be capped rather than replaced?

Only if the timber underneath is sound and dry. Capping over soft, wet timber hides the rot and it carries on spreading, so we will tell you honestly which one your house needs.

Do you match the colour to my windows?

Yes. uPVC roofline comes in white, black, grey, brown and woodgrain finishes, so we can match your windows, doors or existing guttering.

Does the whole gable need scaffolding?

Gable work is high and awkward, so it usually needs a scaffold or a tower for safe access. That is included in the quote, with no surprises later.
