Advantages Of Soffits and Fascia

Soffits and fascia give your home a ‘finished’ look. Beyond their aesthetics, they provide much-needed ventilation for your attic and crawl space during hot and humid summers. Otherwise, moisture can rot the wood elements of your roof and attic structure. They also help keep rodents, pests, and more out of your home.


Fascia, seal off the roof's edge, blocking access for squirrels, pests, and others to your attic and home and preventing water intrusion. Big Bear Roofing provides free estimates for soffit and fascia repair, replacement, and installation services.
