Homes in Tyne and Wear
Tyneside flats, pairs of upper and lower flats behind a terraced front, are a distinctive feature of Newcastle and Gateshead. Sunderland is known for its single-storey terraced 'Sunderland cottages', and both cities have Victorian brick and stone terraces, interwar estates and post-war housing. Washington was built as a new town from the 1960s.
Terraces and Tyneside flats commonly need repointing, roof work and window replacement. Houses suit loft rooms and rear extensions, and new-town homes often take garage conversions and cladding upgrades.
So when we survey a Felling property for new fascias, soffits and guttering, the first step is working out how it was built and what has been changed since.
Planning and building rules in Felling
For anyone in Felling, the relevant framework is England's. The summary below is general, so we always contact the council about your address before putting a price in writing.
Replacing fascias, soffits and guttering does not need planning permission in England unless the house is listed or a conservation area restricts materials.
Building Regulations do not normally apply to like-for-like roofline replacement. Bats are protected across the UK; if they roost under roof tiles, soffits or fascias, work stops and a licensed ecologist advises before it restarts.
Rules change and every property is different, so we check the planning history and constraints for your address before we quote.
From survey to handover
We look at the job
A free survey comes first. It gives us what we need to price new fascias, soffits and guttering properly, including dimensions, existing materials and access for deliveries, and gives you the chance to ask anything you like.
Price and scope agreed
After the survey we send a quote for new fascias, soffits and guttering that fixes the price for the scope we've agreed. If you want to change materials or scope, we revise it in writing before anything is booked.
Getting ready
Before anyone starts, we confirm the programme in writing, check whether consents are required and arrange deliveries. If a skip or scaffolding on the road needs a permit, we apply for it.
On site to finish
Work goes ahead as scheduled and you deal with one contact throughout. When the last trade leaves, we clear and clean the site, talk you through what has been done and pass on any certificates and care instructions.
How we work
Fascias, soffits and guttering in Felling: questions
How much will new fascias, soffits and guttering cost in Felling?
As a guide, expect to pay £1,800–£4,000 including VAT for new fascias, soffits and guttering in Felling. That range is adjusted for the North East, which runs about 10% below the national guide. Where your project lands depends on size, materials, access and the condition of what is already there. We confirm a fixed price in writing after a free survey of your home.
Do you cover Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne and Hebburn?
Yes. As well as Felling, we cover Gateshead, Newcastle upon Tyne and Hebburn and the rest of Tyne and Wear. Our coverage is UK-wide, so the process is the same wherever you are: a free site survey, a quote in writing that fixes the price for the agreed scope, and one point of contact while the work is planned and carried out.
How long does roofline replacement take?
Replacing fascias, soffits and guttering on a typical semi-detached house usually takes one to three days, once scaffolding is in place. Larger houses, dormers and gable bargeboards take longer, as do rafter repairs found when the old boards come off. We work one elevation at a time and connect the new guttering as we go, so rainwater is always carried away.
How much do new fascias, soffits and guttering cost?
Replacing fascias, soffits and guttering on a typical 3-bed semi costs £1,800–£4,000. As a guide, allow roughly £80–£170 per metre of eaves plus fixed costs for scaffolding and waste. Coloured or woodgrain uPVC costs a little more than white, and gable bargeboards, dormers and rafter repairs add to the total. Guttering alone costs much less. We confirm a fixed price after measuring.
What if birds or bats are nesting in my roofline?
Nesting birds and roosting bats are protected by law across the UK, so work that would disturb an active nest or roost must wait or be planned with advice. Birds commonly nest under the eaves in spring and summer. If we find signs during the survey, we explain the options and timing. New soffits can include gaps or boxes for wildlife if you want them.
