What is a soffit board?

Soffit boards are long horizontal boards that fit under the roofline, perpendicular to the wall. Along with fascia boards or cover boards, soffit boards give the roofline a completely weatherproof seal.

Is UPVC suitable for soffit boards?

Because of its high durability and easy to maintain nature, UPVC is a great choice of material for soffit boards.

Which do I install first – fascia or soffit?

You should first install fascia or capping boards and then soffit after that, and finally gutters!

Is soffit waterproof?

UPVC soffit boards are completely waterproof, meaning that no moisture can penetrate the core of the boards – this prevents the boards from rotting, splitting, or warping over time.

Hollow Soffit Boards - 10mm

Our Hollow Soffit board is available in widths of 300mm and due to their cleverly designed joint system can be fitted together to cover wider gaps. These UPVC Soffit Boards are a rigid hollow board - whilst they are not as strong as standard plain boards, soffits are non load-bearing, so hollow soffit boards provide a cost effective alternative that have become popular with builders and roofline installers.

As these boards have tongue and groove joints, which means they fit together edge to edge, they are popular for use on particularly wide soffit details, resembling traditional matchboard cladding as they do. Many installers like to cut hollow soffit boards into short lengths and run them from the fascia back to the brickwork, using the tongue and groove joints to form long sections.

Our UPVC Hollow Soffit board is available in a variety of colours including Anthracite Grey, Rosewood, Golden Oak, and Black Ash as well as White, and the range is completed by a variety of trims for ease of installation and a neat finish.
