I am considering new fascias due to rot at the corners and a few other areas. Some extend no more than a foot before becoming solid timber again and other areas more than three feet. I don't think splicing in new wood would be the best solution and it would entail a lot of sanding and painting to match it all in.
The guttering is the culprit for most of the rot and peeling of paint, the remainder is purely down to age and a lack of maintenance by the previous owners.
The guttering will be sorted when new fascias are fitted, but how much could I expect to pay for a 3 bed detached house? I'd like wood again and not just clad the existing rot with plastic. (Soffits are pretty much in good order).
