Product Information

Full details

The Freefoam 200mm Rosewood Fascia Capping Board is an ideal solution for homeowners and professional contractors looking to renovate or protect existing timber roofline structures. This high-quality UPVC board offers a durable, low-maintenance finish that resists weathering while maintaining the aesthetic appeal of a woodgrain texture; however, it requires a solid timber backing for installation, making it unsuitable for direct-to-rafter application without proper support.

FAQs

Can I install this board directly to rafters?

No, this is a capping board and requires a 25mm timber backing board for support, especially in new-build scenarios.

How much timber surface does the 200mm board cover?

The board has an external dimension of 200mm, which is designed to cover 190mm of existing timber fascia.

What is the recommended fixing method for woodgrain boards?

Use 2 x 50mm Polytop nails at maximum 400mm intervals along the length of the board.

How many nails do I need for a 5m length?

You will require approximately 26 nails for every 5m length of board.

Is this product suitable for coastal environments?

UPVC is generally resistant to salt spray, but ensure all fasteners used are high-quality, corrosion-resistant stainless steel or equivalent Polytop nails.

How do I maintain the woodgrain finish?

Clean periodically with mild soapy water. Do not use solvent-based cleaners or abrasive pads which could damage the woodgrain texture.

Troubleshooting

Board appears to be bowing or sagging

Ensure fixings are applied at intervals no greater than 400mm and verify the presence of a structural timber backing board.

Nail heads are visible

Use color-matched Polytop nails specifically designed for woodgrain finishes to ensure the fasteners blend with the board surface.

Difficulty achieving a flush fit over existing timber

Verify that the existing timber width does not exceed 190mm, as the 200mm board is designed to account for the return leg.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a successful installation, follow these guidelines:

  1. Preparation: Inspect the existing timber to ensure it is dry, rot-free, and securely fastened.
  2. Support: For new builds, install a 25mm thick timber backing board to provide structural rigidity.
  3. Fixing: Use 2 x 50mm Polytop nails per interval. For a standard 5m length, ensure you have approximately 26 nails ready.
  4. Spacing: Fixings must not exceed 400mm intervals to prevent bowing or thermal movement.
  5. Maintenance: Periodically clean the surface with warm soapy water and a soft cloth to maintain the appearance of the woodgrain texture. Avoid abrasive chemicals or stiff brushes.
