FAQs

Can I use this board for new roofline installations?

Yes, but it must be applied over a 25mm thick sawn timber backing board to provide necessary structural support.

What is the specific width of this board?

The board is 150mm wide with an overall bottom return leg of 40mm and an internal depth of 30mm.

How far apart should I place the nails?

Fixings should be placed no more than 400mm apart to ensure the board remains secure and accounts for thermal expansion.

Does the Anthracite Grey finish require special paint?

No, the woodgrain finish is pre-applied and designed to be maintenance-free. Do not paint these boards as it may void performance properties.

Can this be installed directly onto brickwork?

No, it must be installed over a timber backing board to ensure a secure and stable fix.

What type of nails are recommended?

You should use 50mm Polytop nails, which feature heads matched to the board's colour for a seamless look.

Troubleshooting

Board appearing loose or sagging

Ensure fixings are spaced no more than 400mm apart and verify that the underlying timber is structurally sound.

Nail heads visible and detracting from appearance

Use matching colour Polytop nails and ensure they are driven flush without compressing the board material.

Difficulty in achieving a tight fit

Check that the timber backing is perfectly level; inconsistencies in the sub-structure will transfer through to the capping board.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resists rot and decay common with traditional wood fascias
  • Sophisticated woodgrain finish offers a modern visual appeal
  • Low maintenance requirement compared to timber alternatives
  • Easy to cut and install for efficient project timelines
  • Secure fit when following recommended fixing spacing

Cons

  • Requires structural timber backing for proper support
  • Not intended to bear load independently
  • Requires specific Polytop nails to prevent aesthetic damage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a professional installation, use 2 x 50mm Polytop Nails per fixing point. It is critical to space these fixings no more than 400mm apart, as woodgrain finishes have different expansion characteristics compared to standard white boards.

  1. Preparation: Ensure the existing timber is dry, level, and free of debris.
  2. Backing: Use 25mm sawn timber as a structural base for all new builds.
  3. Cutting: Use a fine-tooth saw to ensure clean edges.
  4. Fixing: Use colour-matched Polytop nails to secure the board, being careful not to over-drive the nail heads into the finish.
  5. Care: Clean periodically with a soft cloth and mild soapy water to remove dust and maintain the woodgrain finish.
