Fascia Replacement on Detached Garage – South Lakes
It all begins with an idea.
At Walkers Waterproofing, we recently completed a fascia replacement project on a detached garage for a returning client in the South Lakes. The existing fascias had failed due to poor installation and an unsuitable product design, leading to visible warping and structural issues over time.
Identifying the Problem
When we removed the old fascias, we found minimal structural support and open gaps that would have allowed excessive movement. The original 0.7mm metal fascias had warped in the sun and were poorly fixed, highlighting the importance of correct installation and high-quality materials in any roofline system.
Our Solution
To ensure a durable and long-lasting result, our team installed a new 12mm plywood substrate to provide a strong base for the replacement fascias. We then fitted 3mm powder-coated aluminium fascias, offering a superior finish and excellent resistance to UV exposure and weathering — ideal for the Cumbrian climate.
Instead of overlapping joints, we used larger cappings and jointing strips to neatly cover all fixings, achieving a clean, professional appearance that enhances both performance and aesthetics.
Long-Lasting Roofline Protection
The finished result is a robust, modern fascia system designed to withstand the elements while maintaining a sleek appearance. This project demonstrates our commitment to quality workmanship, attention to detail, and premium materials — values that make Walkers Waterproofing a trusted roofing contractor in the South Lakes.
