Fascia and Soffits specialists in Cosham. Coastal specification, 10-year guarantee, free written quotes with no call-out fee.
Cosham's Portsea Island coastal microclimate attacks UPVC and timber fascia boards faster than equivalent inland properties. 1930s semis with original concrete plain tiles properties typically show rot within 25 years here. We specify coastal-grade UPVC on all Cosham fascia work.
Fascia and guttering are always assessed together in Cosham. A rotten fascia cannot support guttering — and fitting new guttering to a failing fascia wastes the investment. Both are assessed as part of every survey.
Correct soffit ventilation prevents condensation in the roof void — a concern in Cosham's Portsea Island coastal microclimate which creates elevated ambient humidity. We specify correctly sized vents on all soffit replacement work.
| Service | Cost | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Full fascia and soffit replacement (semi) | 800-1400 | Both elevations UPVC |
| Single elevation | 400-750 | Includes guttering assessment |
| Rotten section repair | 150-350 | Per elevation |
| Soffit vent inserts | 150-300 | Correct sizing |
"Fascia replacement on our 1930s semi — the 1980s UPVC had finally given up. New run fitted with correctly calculated fall angles."
"1930s semi on Drayton Lane — re-roof, Portsmouth Roofing was honest that the tiles were past repair. Specified the correct modern equivalent."
"Nail sickness on our post-war Cosham property — both slopes assessed and re-fixed with stainless. Explained exactly what to watch for."
Signs include visible rot or softness when pressed, paint peeling, guttering pulling away, or brown staining behind the gutterline.

Cosham sits at the northern approach to Portsea Island — slightly inland from the harbour but within the island's salt-influenced microclimate. Frost incidence is similar to Portsmouth generally but the 1930s semi concentration creates a specific repair profile across the suburb.
Cosham and adjacent Drayton are dominated by 1930s semi-detached properties — original concrete plain tiles now 85 to 90 years old and showing advanced surface aggregate erosion. Many properties are at or past the repair vs replace decision point.
Cosham's 1930s semis typically had their fascia replaced in the 1980s and 90s in UPVC — now 30 to 40 years old and showing failed joints and misaligned falls that cause guttering to overflow onto the original brickwork. Every job we carry out in Cosham is specified for these specific conditions — not a generic Portsmouth-wide approach.
