How to Tell You Need Fascias & Soffits
The roofline — fascias, soffits and the guttering they carry — protects the whole roof edge. On Winchester’s post-war estates the original softwood is now often at end of life. Here is how to tell. Teg Down’s housing and setting mean some faults show up here more than elsewhere.
Peeling paint and visibly soft or rotten fascia timber
Guttering sagging because the fascia behind it has failed
Gaps or holes in the soffit where birds or wasps get in
Staining on the wall below the roofline
Original painted softwood on a 1960s–80s estate property
When it is not the answer: If the timber is dry and sound, capping over it in uPVC is a valid, cheaper option — full replacement is only necessary once the timber has rotted. Read the full guide.

Teg Down Property Profile
What Teg Down Properties Need for Fascias and Soffits
Teg Down was built primarily 1970s–80s chalk plateau. The dominant roofing material is concrete interlocking. The lead work on most Teg Down properties is 45–55 years old. Properties on Teg Down Meads, Sarum Road are representative of the typical Teg Down housing stock.
The most wind-exposed Winchester estate conditions in Teg Down affect how quickly roofing elements deteriorate. Specifically, the highest wind exposure — ridge failure rate above Winchester average creates maintenance requirements that differ from Winchester estates in more sheltered or drier positions. We account for this in both the specification and the survey schedule we recommend for Teg Down properties.
✓Lead flashings assessed — 45–55 years old lead is the primary maintenance item for most Teg Down properties
✓Ridge and hip mortar condition — checked against the flexible mortar specification
✓Gutter condition and fall — cleared and tested on maintenance visits
✓Loft inspection where accessible — felt and structural condition
✓Written condition report — yours regardless of whether you proceed

Timescales
How Long Does It Take?
Job
Typical duration

Half a day
Capping over sound timber — semi
1 day
Full roofline — semi
1–2 days
Full roofline — detached
2–3 days
Roofline installs run in most weather; only heavy rain or high wind pauses work at the eaves. In Teg Down we confirm the likely duration on the survey, once we have seen the access and the roof.
Access
Getting Safely onto Teg Down Roofs
Roofline work runs from towers or ladders on most semis; taller or detached properties may need scaffold. Scaffold is specified for: two-storey detached fronts, three-storey terraces, or combined roofline-and-roof work - always itemised in your written quote, never a hidden extra, and we arrange it.
Teg Down is a post-war and modern estate high on the north-western chalk ridge, with good driveway access. Pavement scaffold and skip permits go through Winchester City Council; allow a few working days on streets like Teg Down Meads, Dean Lane where space is tight.

Good to know
Living Around the Work
A day or two of eaves-level work, no internal access, a modest amount of old-timber debris cleared as we go. You do not need to stay home for external work — just power and access agreed in advance.
The work is external and largely weatherproof, but we protect open eaves overnight if a run is not finished. Among the most exposed estates in the city — high, open, and prone to wind uplift on ridges and verges.
FAQ
Fascias and Soffits Teg Down — Questions
Full roofline replacement (fascias, soffits, guttering) on a Teg Down semi: £600–£1,200. Larger detached: £1,000–£2,000. Free survey — call 01962 809171.
Cellular foam-core uPVC is correct for most Teg Down post-war properties — no painting required.
Yes — rafter feet inspection is part of every Teg Down fascia survey. Rotten rafter feet are confirmed and quoted before work starts. New fascias into rotten timber fail within months.
The lowest tile course is carefully lifted during fascia work and relaid correctly. Done properly there is no tile disturbance. We have replaced fascias on hundreds of Teg Down area properties without tile damage.
Yes — cold roof construction requires through-ventilation. Vented soffit sections are fitted where the roof space requires ventilation. We confirm the ventilation requirement for each Teg Down property at survey.
Yes — section repairs are appropriate where the rest of the run is sound. We quote the minimum effective intervention. Full replacement is only recommended where the majority of the run has failed.
Yes — guttering must be removed for fascia replacement. If the existing guttering is old or failing, replacing it at the same time avoids a second scaffold or access visit. We include guttering replacement as a combined option in all Teg Down fascia quotes.
