Find why the wood deteriorated
Gutter overflow, short or missing drip edge, roof leaks, open joints, and repeated wetting can all damage fascia. New wood needs the cause corrected as part of the scope.
Rebuild the roof edge before covering it.
Fascia Repair & Replacement in the Fox Valley
Fascia supports the roof-edge finish and often carries the gutter system. When the wood is soft, split, or out of alignment, attaching new gutters or wrapping over it will not solve the structural problem.

Built for Northeast Wisconsin
The local conditions matter.
Gutter overflow, failed drip-edge details, snow and ice load, and repeated wetting can damage fascia in Northeast Wisconsin. We look for the water source and the extent of deterioration before recommending selective repair or replacement.
Wisconsin field notes
Fascia replacement that rebuilds the Wisconsin roof edge
Fascia supports the finished roofline and often the gutter system. Replacement should correct the water source, restore sound fastening, and prepare the edge for trim and drainage.
Gutter loads need solid backing
Wet debris, ice, and snowmelt add weight at the roof edge. Hangers should ultimately fasten through the finished assembly into dependable material.
Sequence the trades correctly
Wood repair comes before aluminum wrapping and final gutter installation. That order protects the repair and avoids removing newly installed components.
What to watch for
Signs fascia needs repair or replacement
01
Gutters are pulling away
Loose fasteners may indicate weakened wood behind the gutter, especially when screws no longer hold securely.
02
Soft, split, or crumbling wood
Visible decay means the board can no longer provide dependable attachment or protect the eave.
03
Peeling paint returns quickly
Repeated coating failure can signal persistent moisture from the roof edge or gutter rather than a paint-only problem.
04
Waves along the roofline
Warped boards, inconsistent framing, or poor previous repairs can telegraph through gutters and metal wrap.

Our process
1
Find the moisture source
We review gutter overflow, roof-edge details, flashing, drip edge, and other conditions that may be repeatedly wetting the board.
2
Expose sound boundaries
Damaged material is removed back to a practical, solid repair point and the nearby eave is checked.
3
Rebuild the edge
New board is fitted and fastened to create a straight, secure substrate for the roof-edge finish and gutters.
4
Restore the exterior
Soffit, gutter, drip-edge interfaces, and optional metal wrap are completed so the assembly sheds water cleanly.
Helpful answers
Fascia Replacement FAQs
Every home is different. These are the questions we hear most often before an inspection.
Can gutters be installed over rotted fascia?+
They should not be. Gutter hangers need a solid attachment, and covering deteriorated wood leaves the underlying failure in place.
What causes fascia boards to rot?+
Common causes include overflowing gutters, roof-edge or flashing defects, missing drip edge, repeated ice exposure, and unprotected wood end grain.
Do gutters have to come off for fascia repair?+
Usually, the affected gutter run must be removed or loosened to access the board and restore a secure attachment surface.
Can only one section of fascia be replaced?+
Yes, when damage is localized and a sound transition can be made. Widespread deterioration or alignment problems may justify a longer replacement run.
Keep planning

Custom-bent aluminum wrap shields properly prepared fascia from sun and repeated wetting while eliminating routine scraping and painting. The key is to correct damaged wood and water-entry details before the metal goes on.

Gutter Repair
Overflow does not always mean the gutter is too small, and a drip does not always mean the entire system needs replacement. We look at pitch, support, seams, outlets, roof flow, fascia condition, and discharge before recommending a repair.
