Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I install this board directly onto brickwork?

No, this product is designed specifically to be fixed onto timber backing boards or existing sound timber fascias.

What type of nails should I use?

For the woodgrain finish boards, use 50mm Polytop Nails.

What is the recommended nail spacing?

Nails should be spaced at a maximum of 400mm apart.

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

You should use approximately 26 nails per 5-meter length.

Is this product suitable for structural use?

No, this is a decorative and protective capping board and is not intended to provide structural support for roof rafters.

Troubleshooting

Board appears wavy after installation

Check that the nails were not over-driven, allowing for slight movement, and verify that the 400mm spacing was not exceeded.

Visible gaps between board joints

Ensure that thermal expansion gaps were accounted for during installation and that the boards are correctly aligned on the backing timber.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to rot and decay
  • Aesthetically pleasing woodgrain finish
  • Easy to install over existing timber
  • Reduces the need for regular painting or treatment

Cons

  • Requires a solid timber backing for support
  • Specific fixing requirements for woodgrain finishes
  • Not intended for structural load-bearing applications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, ensure the existing timber fascia is structurally sound and free of significant rot before installation. If the timber is heavily damaged, it should be replaced or reinforced before applying the capping board. Secure the boards using 50mm Polytop Nails. To account for thermal movement, maintain a maximum spacing of 400mm between fixings, which equates to approximately 26 nails per 5-meter length. For maintenance, a simple wipe-down with mild soapy water and a soft cloth is sufficient to remove dirt and restore the finish. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvent-based chemicals that could damage the woodgrain surface.
