4 Signs Your Home Needs New Roof Soffits and Fascias

According to roof replacement experts, the soffits and fascias of your home are very important parts of your roof. Not only do they enhance your home’s overall aesthetic but it’s also the component that allows your gutters to remain attached to your home. Unfortunately, at some point, you’ll need to have your soffits and fascias replaced.

1. Pest Infestation

One of the signs that your home needs new soffits and fascias is pest infestation. Often, if you begin to hear noises coming from your ceiling or you find nests and droppings in your attic, it’s clear that pests have begun invading your home and you are having an issue with your fascias and soffits. As much as possible, avoid leaving this issue unattended as it can cause damage to your roof.

2. Cracking and Flaking Paint

Believe it or not, cracking and flaking paint on your soffits and fascias are also signs that they’re in need of replacements. This is because if left unattended, the cracking and flaking paint can also cause water to leak into your home and encourage mold growth. To replace your home’s soffits and fascias, enlist the services of an expert roofing contractor like Deschutes Roofing & Insulation for assistance.

3. Leaking and Wobbly Gutters

 On the other hand, if your gutters are beginning to wobble or leaks more often than not, it’s possible that you need to invest in new soffits and fascias. The reason for this is because the fascia is the component that provides structural support for your gutters. Therefore, if they sustain any damage, your gutters won’t perform as expected.

4. Faulty Roof Ventilation

The soffit provides additional ventilation for your home, especially the attic, as they limit the amount of heat and moisture that builds up in your home. By doing so, it helps extend the lifespan of your roof. Should your home’s ventilation suddenly fail, it’s possible that the soffits are damaged or blocked, making a replacement necessary.
