Roofing Washington, One Home at a Time
Targeted repairs fix soft spots, cracks, and small rot patches in fascia that isn’t ready for full replacement.
Not every stained board needs to come down, since sometimes a localized soft area or open seam is all that's letting moisture in. We cut out the damaged section, treat the surrounding wood, and splice in a matched piece that blends with your existing eave. This approach saves money on homes where only the shaded north side has begun to give way. Sealing the repair against our persistent coastal humidity keeps the fix from reopening next winter.
Extends the life of otherwise sound fascia at lower cost; addresses early rot before it becomes structural; keeps gutters firmly attached during the fix; blends seamlessly with the existing roofline finish
1) Probe the board to map the true extent of soft or damaged wood; 2) Cut back to solid material and apply wood preservative; 3) Splice in a matched section and fasten securely; 4) Seal, prime, and paint the repaired area to match
Size and number of damaged sections; accessibility of the repair location on the eave; whether matching an older or custom board profile is required; degree of moisture treatment the surrounding wood needs
Repairs go smoothest during drier months when the surrounding wood is dry enough to accept preservative and paint.
