The Freefoam 175mm Fascia Board is an ideal solution for homeowners and professional contractors seeking a long-lasting alternative to traditional timber fascias. Engineered for direct installation onto rafter feet, these boards eliminate the need for costly backing boards, making them perfect for both new construction and home renovation projects. While they provide a sleek, modern aesthetic and exceptional durability, users should ensure their rafter measurements are precise, as these boards are designed for specific structural mounting.

These boards are pre-finished in anthracite grey. Painting is generally not recommended as it may void the warranty and the finish is designed to be permanent.
Each board is supplied in a 5-meter length.
Yes, the plastic composition is highly resistant to salt air and corrosion, making it suitable for coastal environments.
Standard carpentry tools such as a fine-toothed saw, drill, and hammer (or nail gun) are sufficient for installation.
Use a standard fascia joiner or a suitable jointing trim designed for the Freefoam system to allow for expansion and contraction.
Check that all fixing points are securely fastened to the rafter and ensure the correct quantity of nails/screws was used per meter.
Ensure there is no debris inside the rebate channel and that the soffit board thickness matches the standard specification.
Installation: Ensure all rafter feet are level before beginning installation. Use appropriate stainless steel fixings to prevent corrosion and secure the boards directly into the timber rafters. Pre-drill holes if necessary to prevent splitting.
Compatibility: This board is compatible with standard soffit boards designed for 18mm rebate slots. Ensure your gutter brackets are spaced according to the manufacturer's recommendations for the specific weight of your chosen gutter system.
Care: The product is virtually maintenance-free. If it becomes dusty or dirty over time, simply clean the surface with a soft sponge, warm water, and a mild household detergent. Avoid using abrasive pads or harsh chemical solvents that could damage the smooth anthracite finish.
