Cost to replace fascias soffits and guttering

Working out the average cost to replace fascias boards soffits and guttering can be a little tricky because there may be a lot of variables. Having said that most fascia replacement firms will have a standard ‘go to’ price per metre, and at least 70% of houses seem to fit this category. I have taken the time to work out the common fascia replacement cost for different property types, and those prices are listed below with other standard UPVC fascia replacement examples.

How did I arrive at these prices? Well not only do I fit fascias myself but I have life long friends in the fascia fitting industry, those include small to medium sized family firms as well as large companies. I also have an article on how to find a recommended fascia company if you want to read it.

This price list is revised every 6-12 months, although the cost of fitting new fascias and soffits isn’t prone to much fluctuation as the raw cost of materials is quite stable, and competition is quite high form both fitters and suppliers. At the end of the day it will be down to how much a company or individual wants to earn in profit, and how busy they are – no escaping it. But as a general rule of thumb larger companies charge more to cover overheads such as staff, advertising and running costs.

Asbestos can also be found in the fibre cement soffits underneath the fascias on occasion. You may find some tradesmen can safely package and dispose of this themselves, or they might have to arrange for an asbestos removal firm to take it away. This obviously may increase your quotation. This is something that should be found during any quotation and my article on how to find a recommended fascia installer also talks about this.
