FAQs

What does RAL 7045 mean?

RAL 7045 is a standardized color system used in Europe, and this specific code identifies the exact 'Telegrey 1' shade used for the Storm Grey board.

Can I paint this soffit board?

The board is designed to be maintenance-free and features a high-quality finish that should not require painting.

Is this board suitable for coastal areas?

Yes, its resistance to moisture and rot makes it highly durable even in salty or damp coastal environments.

How should I cut the board?

A fine-tooth handsaw or a power saw with a PVC-compatible blade will provide the cleanest results.

What is the warranty period?

This product comes with a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee against defects and performance issues.

Is this board 150mm width enough for all roofs?

It is suitable for most standard roof overhangs, but you may need to join boards or use wider alternatives if your eaves are particularly deep.

Troubleshooting

Board is bowing between rafters

Check that the rafter or support spacing meets the manufacturer recommended intervals to ensure adequate rigidity.

Visible gaps at joints

Ensure that you are using the correct jointing profiles and account for thermal expansion by leaving a small gap at the ends.

Rough edges after cutting

Use a fine-tooth saw blade and verify the cutting speed is steady to prevent chipping of the smooth finish.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to rot, decay, and moisture absorption
  • Modern Storm Grey (RAL 7045) aesthetic fits contemporary designs
  • Lightweight material simplifies installation for a single contractor
  • Low maintenance requirement saves time and money over the lifespan
  • Backed by a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee

Cons

  • Requires professional cutting tools for clean, square edges
  • Limited to a 150mm width, necessitating multiple boards for wider overhangs
  • Rigid material means it cannot be bent around complex curves

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install the board, ensure your timber support framework is level and properly treated to prevent underlying rot. Use color-matched stainless steel nails or screws, as these will maintain the clean aesthetic of the Storm Grey finish without corroding over time. When joining lengths, use proper jointing trims to allow for minor thermal expansion and contraction.

For care, the material is largely self-cleaning. If it becomes covered in dirt or grime after years of exposure, a simple wash down with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive detergent is sufficient to restore the original appearance. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents or abrasive pads, as these can dull the smooth finish or damage the RAL 7045 coating.
