What is a "fascia"?
Fascia is a horizontal board or surface that runs along the edge of a roof or eaves, typically installed to support the bottom of the roof tiles or shingles. It serves both functional and decorative purposes, protecting the underlying structure from weather elements while providing a finished appearance to the roofline. Fascia boards are often made from wood, vinyl, or composite materials and can be painted or stained to match the building's exterior. In addition to enhancing aesthetics, fascia also helps prevent water damage by directing rainwater into the gutters, promoting effective drainage away from the building.
