Ventilated Soffits:

Like ‘Over Fascia Ventilators’, Ventilated soffits can also provide a 10mm or 25mm air path to the roof void; however the disadvantage of this type of ventilation is that dust and debris can build up and spoil the cosmetic appearance of your roofline.

Ventilation:
To comply with building regulations (approved document F2) all newly built properties must have continuous ventilation at eaves level to avoid damp and condensation within the roof void. However this is not essential on properties that predate the building regulations or were originally constructed without ventilation.

As standard, we recommend that adequate ventilation is provided on all refurbishment projects regardless of the age of the property. Our experienced surveyor will discuss your ventilation requirements at the appointment and advise whether ‘Ventilated Soffit’ or ‘Over Fascia Ventilation’ will best suit your home.
