When it comes to roof repairs there are certain times when it pays to hire a professional roofer, but there are also some types of repairs which the average homeowner can take on as a DIY project. Actually, repairing fascias and soffits can easily be handled with a few easy to follow instructions. However, the first thing to do is check to see why there is damage to the underside of the overhang in order to prevent the damage from coming back again once it is repaired.
Usually the cause of rotting overhangs is due to either a few broken shingles on the roof or leaky gutters and downpipes. These are easily repaired at the same time. Roof shingles on the other hand may require a licensed roofer if there are a great number of shingles or tiles which need to be replaced. Even so, experience has shown that gutters are often the cause of flaking paint and rot on the underside of the overhang which can quickly and cheaply be repaired by replacing the fascia and/or soffit.
