Product Information

Full details

The Freefoam 150mm Fascia Capping Board is designed for homeowners and contractors seeking a low-maintenance, clean finish for fascia and window boards. It serves as an ideal solution for covering existing weathered timber or protecting new installations when paired with a solid timber backing board. While it provides excellent durability and weather resistance, it is important to note that this board is a 10mm capping profile rather than a structural fascia board, meaning it requires a secure mounting surface to ensure long-term stability.

FAQs

Can I install this directly onto masonry?

No, this board is designed for use over timber backing boards or existing sound timber fascia.

What nails should I use?

Use 50mm Polytop nails to ensure both a secure hold and a color-matched finish.

How often should I space the nails?

Nails should be spaced at intervals of 600mm for optimal structural security.

Is this product UV stable?

Yes, the UPVC used is formulated to resist yellowing and degradation from sunlight exposure.

Can these boards be painted?

While the boards come in a finished white, they are not intended to be painted; painting may void warranties and cause the plastic to trap heat.

How do I cut the boards to size?

Use a fine-tooth hand saw or a power miter saw with a blade suitable for plastic to achieve a clean edge.

Troubleshooting

Board appearing wavy after installation

This is usually caused by nailing too tightly. Ensure nails are fixed securely but allow for slight thermal expansion.

Surface dirt buildup

Use a non-abrasive household cleaner and a soft cloth to gently wipe the surface. Avoid wire brushes or harsh scouring pads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to rot and weathering
  • Requires virtually no painting or ongoing maintenance
  • Easy to cut and install with standard woodworking tools
  • Provides a clean, uniform white appearance
  • Ideal for covering existing degraded timber

  • Not a structural replacement; requires a backing board
  • Strictly limited to the 150mm width profile

  • Cannot be used as a standalone load-bearing board

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a secure installation, use 50mm Polytop nails. These nails are specifically designed to match the white finish of the boards, preventing unsightly rust or discoloration.

Installation Steps:

  1. Ensure the timber backing is sound, dry, and free of protruding nails.
  2. Space your 50mm Polytop nails at 600mm intervals to accommodate for material expansion.
  3. Leave a small gap at joints to allow for thermal movement of the UPVC.
  4. Clean the boards periodically with a soft sponge and mild soapy water to maintain the bright white appearance; avoid abrasive cleaners or solvent-based chemicals which may damage the surface.
