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.
Soffit is the name given to the board that runs horizontally from the back edge of the bottom of the fascia board to the top of the wall, closing off the roof space at the eaves. Soffit Boards can be plain or vented, and there is also a cost-effective hollow version which has a tongued and grooved effect to mimic timber cladding. Soffit is non load-bearing.
Our Rigid PVC Soffits are available in Rosewood, which is very similar to the traditional Mahogany shade but with more of a natural woodgrain finish. These soffit boards are stocked in 100mm to 404mm widths with tongue and groove or smooth edges. They are most commonly used alongside our Rosewood Standard Fascia Boards.

Because of its high durability and easy to maintain nature, UPVC is a great choice of material for soffit boards.
You should first install fascia or capping boards and then soffit after that, and finally gutters!
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.
