Product Information

Full details

The Freefoam 400mm Fascia Board is designed for contractors and homeowners looking for a robust, maintenance-free solution for new builds or roofline refurbishments. Its primary benefit is the 18mm thickness, which allows for direct mounting to rafter feet without needing a supporting timber backing board. While this product provides excellent durability and a contemporary aesthetic, it requires precise measurement and cutting, as the woodgrain finish can be susceptible to surface scratches during aggressive installation.

FAQs

Does this board require a timber backing board?

No, the 18mm thickness is specifically engineered to be fixed directly to rafter feet.

Can I paint these boards?

These boards are finished with a durable woodgrain design and are intended to be maintenance-free; painting is not recommended as it may void the finish properties.

What fixings should I use?

Use stainless steel, color-coded, 65mm polytop nails to ensure they are weather-resistant and match the agate grey aesthetic.

How do I cut the board to length?

Use a fine-tooth saw or a power saw with a blade suitable for PVC to prevent the surface from cracking or chipping.

Is the finish consistent with other Freefoam products?

Yes, the agate grey woodgrain is designed to color-match the broader Freefoam roofline accessory range.

Troubleshooting

Board appears bowed after installation

Check that the rafter feet are perfectly aligned; ensure that the fixing centers are spaced correctly per manufacturer guidelines to prevent thermal stress.

Difficulty inserting soffit board into the rebate

Ensure the rebated area is free of debris and that the soffit board edges are cut squarely before insertion.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eliminates the cost and labor of installing separate timber backing boards
  • Modern, high-end agate grey woodgrain appearance
  • High structural rigidity due to 18mm thickness
  • Resistant to rot and weathering for long-term reliability
  • Integrated soffit rebate simplifies the trim installation process

Cons

  • Larger 400mm profile can be heavy to handle for solo installers
  • Requires professional-grade cutting tools to avoid chipping the woodgrain finish
  • Limited to specific aesthetic applications compared to standard white boards
  • Precise rafter alignment is required due to the direct-fix nature of the board

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires that rafter feet are sound, level, and capable of supporting the weight of the PVC board. Ensure all rafters are aligned to provide a flat surface for the 400mm board. Use stainless steel fixings to prevent rust staining on the grey surface. When cleaning, avoid abrasive scouring pads or harsh chemical solvents. A simple wash with warm soapy water and a soft cloth is sufficient to maintain the woodgrain finish. Regular inspections should be made to ensure no fixings have worked loose over time due to thermal expansion.
