Polsloe’s specific characteristics create distinct fascias & soffits requirements. The 1930s and victorian housing stock in Polsloe presents conditions that differ from Exeter’s post-war suburbs, and the correct specification for each job reflects the age, construction method and local exposure of the property.

The rafter feet are the ends of the roof rafters where they project over the wall at the eaves. They are hidden behind the fascia board and are the element most frequently damaged by fascia failure. When a fascia board has allowed water to reach the rafter feet — typically from sustained gutter overflow or from rain tracking behind a loose board — the end grain of the timber absorbs moisture and decays from the inside. The exterior face of the rafter can appear sound while the structural cross-section is significantly compromised. In Polsloe, where some properties have had the same fascia boards for 50–70 years, rafter foot decay is a common finding on survey. We probe the visible rafter foot surface with a sharp implement during every Polsloe fascia survey. Sound timber is hard; deteriorated timber is soft or crumbles. Where decay is found, we include epoxy consolidation or sister-rafter repair in the fascia replacement quote as a confirmed scope item.
