Hi Del Great video. Carpenter of 40 years. Work on my own too 😀 I have used your method..which is good. As you say..many methods. Can't imagine replacing any damage soffit will be easy though 😉 Great video Del.. you're a honest and humble guy. Well made. By the way..watching your roofing video you mention the stanley roofing square.. you can still get them ...I got one not long ago. 😀

Literally gonna help me sleep tonight having watched this 😂😂. I know this is an "easy" job in comparison to cutting hip rafters etc (which I can do) But I have never "finished a roof" doing the soffit and fascia so I was/am a bit nervous.

Awesome video Del, loads of tips in here for me. I know plastic is fairly easy to work with and fairly maintenance free, but sometimes I wonder what we're doing using it and cutting it with all those particles going everywhere. Dust extraction isn't always practical, and still creates a waste problem. Our industry needs some changes I think. Silicone tubes is another one. They're meant to be recyclable plastic but I don't think it happens because they're all contaminated. I tried the foils but they aren't as easy to change over and there isn't the range at the moment. Plastic wrapping on everything, as you know we end up with skips and skips full of it. 😐

Another benefit of the sub fascia is that you can leave the finish fascia off so the roofers won’t damage it when they cut their tiles. I’ve had it before where they’ve put their stihl saws down too close to the fascia and took a big chuck out of the fascia! But they didn’t do it once but three times!! Even though I told them after they did it the first time!! Thankfully I didn’t supply the material so it wasn’t down to me! Just I had to put the new piece on! Since then, I put sub fascia on!! I normally put the fascia on when I go back to do the guttering. Proper neat job 👍🏻😎 personally I liked the longer video too. Crazy to think I do a days work then in the evening I watch someone else do the same job! 🤣

@@thetallcarpenter I have seen this before too. I agree I'm not sure it allows for expansion. The grove in the fascia board is designed for the soffit board to slot in nicely, the lip of the fascia is sufficient in allowing the soffit board to remain in place with expansion. Basically if done correctly silicon shouldn't be required.

Hi Del, great looking finish you got on the roof from hell. When you staple the soffit on do you have to shoot the staples upwards at an angle to allow the next board to slide in ? Dan Cox has a great tip in the shorts playlist on Skillbuilder for setting out the fascia nails.👍

I'm curious, in your experience over the years, which direction should PVC fascia boards be fitted? Boards fitted parallel to the walls in long sections, or as you've done it here, with the lines perpendicular to the walls? Is it a case of if a board width fits the overhang nicely you lay them in long sections, and if the overhang does not fit a factory size you cut sections like this?
@thetallcarpenter
@thetallcarpenter Жыл бұрын
Basically, yes Lance, what you have written is, more or less correct, the only difference being, that it may be a customers preference to use a wide soffit board running parallel with the fascia over the 'hollow board' running at 90° degrees to it👍Although there is a limit here aswel, as solid soffit board only comes in a maximum of 300mm🤔 Cheers Del

Hi Sunny🖐 It's a tricky one to answer bud, as a lot comes down to your financial position, as starting from the bottom, usually means low pay😬I think the easiest way to get your foot in the door is to put the word about at local builders merchants that you are looking to get into the industry and ask them if they wouldn't mind mentioning you to builders and even putting up some of your details. There's always an element of luck as well, as, in my experience, there will always be someone looking for extra labour, and if you're names in front of them, you've got half a chance🤞If you are practically minded you can also just volunteer yourself to family and friends to do odd jobs, make and fix things, and all you need for this is a few basic tools👍Hope this helps😎Cheers Del

Hi del, we always have a dispute with other chippes in terms of how long the little sprocket piece should be on top of the fascia on the verges (where the bargeboard meets). I cut mine from the top of fascia and the length determined by where the first batten for the slate or tile lays. Then simply drawing a line between the two creating this angles fillet piece. I have seen others simply just going from top of fascia and length determined by simply levelling of this point creating a very small finicky piece. How do you do yours cheers del

Hi bud🖐Generally, it's pretty simple to me, I just cut that little barge sprocket the same width as the soffit (vertically) so it all matches in, and would be exactly the same as if you were making the box end in plastic using a wide board to cut it out of👊Hope that makes sense👍Have a good weekend🤩Cheers Del

Great job again Del. I like your method with the soffit on the brick. Here we usually put on a treated 2x2 on the wall near the last course and fix the soffit to that and then out to the bottom of the facia treated backer board your method seems much easier. We fit a vent strip every so often in the soffit also. Ive made up a jig for marking usually every 600 and a fixing top and bottom. Our facia material dosent seem as thick a profile as yours is that standard? Do you cut in your own boxes or get them pre made if the roof requires ?

Hi Del, how would you go about renovating a roof to receive new fascias and soffits where the rafter tails are already on their minimum i.e. 150mm ish but they're noticeably not straight along the run. I was thinking of cutting blocks and attaching those to hold the fascia. How's best to get them straight/level/plum, difficult to get those things right all in one go. Maybe i'll leave them long and cut as you did here...

get a string line on at your desired soffit distance from the brickwork, mark and cut the rafters. If some are short cut and fix a pad to the side of it to extend the rafter. Make sure nothing is touching the line as string will bend if contacting rafters.

Hi George🖐Steve Hallam has beat me to it, and explained perfectly what to do in your instance. (if you are replacing the fascia). If you are not replacing the fascia, and just want to fit new fascia over the top of your existing fascia, then packing out the 'low' spots to get a straight line would work, but be aware that your tile overhang will decrease if doing this👍Cheers Del
