Product Information

Full details

The Freefoam Fascia Board Double End Corner is an essential finishing component designed for professional installers and DIY enthusiasts working on PVC fascia systems. It serves the vital purpose of concealing the 10mm expansion gap at eaves corners while providing a clean, aesthetic transition between boards. The primary benefit is its ability to facilitate the necessary thermal expansion and contraction of PVC materials, though users must be careful to follow specific bonding techniques to ensure the system remains functional under varying weather conditions.

FAQs

Why is the 10mm gap necessary?

PVC materials expand and contract significantly with temperature changes. Without this gap, boards can warp or crack.

Can I use standard wood glue for this?

No. You must use an adhesive specifically rated for rigid PVC to ensure a proper bond.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will need a tape measure, a fine-toothed hacksaw, a silicone sealant gun, and the recommended adhesive.

Is this corner compatible with all fascia brands?

It is designed for standard PVC fascia systems, but it is best used within the Freefoam ecosystem for a perfect fit.

How often should I clean the black finish?

Cleaning once or twice a year during regular gutter maintenance is usually sufficient to keep the finish looking new.

Troubleshooting

The trim is buckling or bowing after installation

This often occurs because both sides were glued down. Ensure only one side is fixed, leaving the other free to expand into the corner.

Water is leaking behind the corner trim

Ensure that a low modulus silicone sealant was applied correctly to the non-glued side to provide a flexible, watertight barrier.

Difficulty cutting the trim cleanly

Use a fine-toothed hacksaw and apply gentle pressure; support the trim firmly on a workbench to prevent cracking.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ensures structural integrity by allowing necessary thermal movement
  • Provides a clean, professional aesthetic at roofline corners
  • Easy to install and modify with basic hand tools
  • Specifically color-matched for black fascia systems

Cons

  • Requires specific gluing and sealing techniques to function correctly
  • Must be cut precisely to fit unique roof dimensions
  • Restricted to use with 10mm expansion gap systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, first ensure the fascia boards have the required 10mm gap at the corner junction. Position the double end corner over the joint. You will need to glue one side to the board using a compatible PVC adhesive, while the other side should be treated with a low modulus silicone sealant. This combination allows for movement while preventing water ingress. For care, simply wipe down the corner trim with a mild soap solution and a soft cloth during your routine roofline maintenance. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads that may dull the black finish.
