Roofing & Materials
Fascia
The trim board or metal piece along the eaves of a roof, installed directly below the roof edge. The fascia gives the roof a finished edge and usually carries the gutter system. When gutters pull down or storm damage strikes, the fascia is often bent, split, or rotted, and it must be replaced or straightened. It appears as a separate line item in roof and exterior repair estimates.
