​Fascia Boards 

The blogs are so far behind due to us trying to catch up with some of our jobs and trying to to get some design work for our customers. 

Job 1

So the Fascia Board jobs, yes 2 fascia jobs in as many weeks. These 2 jobs in Dundee we got to use our new favourite product Tricoya which is an MDF type product but unlike normal MDF Tricoya is a super high performing material. Made by Medite for Accoya. 

Due to both fascia job’s requiring wide boards, Tricoya was the best option due to its stability to the elements. Most marine plywoods or performance plywood at the moment are so bad I wouldn't trust them and I wouldn't want it to fall apart after a few months (which I have seen happen) needed some alterations as the angled fascia detail was trapping water and directing it into the building, so we made it look a more traditional detail.

Finished with Tikkurila paint systems.

We got in our roofer to replace the drips on the roof also

Job 2

This was similar but with no adjustments made to the fascia, we also replaced the front cladding as it had rot on the lower parts. We also used Tricoya on this job and sealed with Tikkurila primer ready to be finished on site by the painter. We also noticed some rot on the window glazing beads and the sash so we replace some of the sash and made new beads for the window while on site.

 

If there is anything we can do for you in the future don’t hesitate to contact us. We are a small joinery company based in Dundee City, Scotland
