Before setting out to install any cladding layer, whether it's a new structure or an old one, there must be some initial checks on the job site that must be performed. The general blueprint of the job site and framing of the home or building must be done prior to the installation of the PVC cladding. This is very important because the cladding layer material must be properly attached and fastened to the frame of the home or building. For newly constructed homes and buildings, it is important to make visual checks to make sure that doors and windows are installed as well as the vapour barriers. If the home or building does not have a vapour barrier, then installation of a new one is mandatory as it significantly resists the diffusion of moisture through the wall, ceiling and flooring areas of any structure. Once all these prerequisites have been met, the home or building can now easily be outfitted with cladding.

When venturing into home or building construction, installation of soffit and fascia boards always come into the picture. Whether it is installing or re-installing new soffits and fascias, there are some things that need to be taken into consideration. First and foremost, external fascia boards are roof trimmings mainly designed to protect the roof and interior of the house from most weather hazards. Since this part of the roofing construction will be constantly facing a lot of exposure to the elements, deciding on which material to use for a fascia board is very significant. There are a lot of different types of fascia boards to select from, wooden or timber ones, aluminum, steel and metal, plastic, etc. In retrospect, this also means having a much harder time deciding what to use. While all types of fascia boards more or less serve the same purpose, there is one type of fascia board that outperforms all the others, PVC or plastic fascias. Fascia boards made out of this material do not absorb water and moisture when there is snow and rain. This material is also manufactured to withstand constant heat exposure making it highly resistant to cracks. In terms of its durability and effectiveness in withstanding the elements, plastic fascias provide a very good roofing material which is made and designed to never rot and, in most situations, last or outlast the lifetime of the home or building itself.

In unison with fascia boards, soffits are an indispensable component that is included in the construction of any home or building as well, hence the term soffit and fascia. While the fascia board is the structure that gets direct exposure from the weather, the soffit board is the underside part of the ceiling which is usually in the external part of a home or building. It can either be non-ventilated or ventilated. To further discuss the purpose and necessity of putting up soffit vents for your roofing system, we need to take a closer look at how soffit and fascia boards work in tandem with the entire roof structure. Soffit vents work in unison with your roof vent system to basically remove hot air in the attic during the summer time and to remove warm moist air in the winter time from the attic space. Additionally, soffit vents also work in conjunction with the ridge vents by eliminating or reducing heat that usually gather in the attic vents during warm weather seasons. Installation of this vent system helps in extending the life of the roofing components, thereby making the home or building cooler during hot weather months and by sustaining heat and warmth during the cold winter seasons.

So for other home and building improvement needs and modifications, what better way to make sure that the entire roofing mechanism works, employing the use of plastic soffit and fascia boards along with plastic soffit vents for a long lasting, quality roofing material that is not only practical but also appealing. As for the protection and layering of the entire exterior of the home or building, choose PVC cladding. UK and European residents especially suffer from mild climates, which means lots of rain. So, not only will the exterior of the home look great and provide long term protection against the wet weather, it will also be built and constructed to last.
