I need a fascia board to cover:
2" wall plate 7" joist 2" purlin Metal roof profile Plus a bit more perhapsthis comes to between 12" and 13" wide and up to an inch thick. I need a run of 7.8 metres.
I can't immediately find 13"/325mm wide sawn timber so I was wondering which was best.
(1) Get shuttering ply or OSB and rip some strips from it with a circular saw and butt them end to end.
or
(2) Use two runs of 6"-7" wide timber butted side by side.
Either way there will be joins. I can't decide if it is better to have a few vertical joins or a continuous horizontal one plus one or more verticals.
Cheers
