Soffit and fascia are essential elements of a roofing system. Soffit sits discreetly underneath the rafters, while fascia is the exposed panel in front of the roof overhang where the eavestrough sits.
When considering new soffit and fascia, look for the following traits:
Low Maintenance
Aluminum soffit and fascia are low maintenance products, designed with easy upkeep in mind. Unlike wood, aluminum won’t split, warp or rot from moisture exposure. The high-performance finish on Gentek aluminum soffit and fascia is designed to not blister, flake or peel.
Durability
Soffit and fascia encourage air circulation to help reduce moisture from eaves and rafters. Aluminum is durable and built to withstand harsh weather conditions. The strength of aluminum can help deter insects and animals that take advantage of weak spots in the roofing system. Gentek soffit panels feature a distinctive v-groove design for extra strength and rigidity.
Appearance
Aluminum soffit and fascia are available in various colours and finishes to complement your home’s design. Aluminum fascia can often be smooth or ribbed to best suit your style, while soffit can be solid or vented.
Aluminum soffit and fascia can add a finishing touch to rooflines, gables and other architectural areas. Find out more about Gentek aluminum products today.
