✅ Best Practices for Soffit & Fascia
- Measure linear footage carefully — include eaves, rakes, and returns.
- Use vented soffit panels in enclosed eaves to improve attic airflow.
- Order 5–10% extra material for waste, cuts, and overlaps.
- Seal all fascia joints with caulk or trim sealant to prevent water intrusion.
- Use proper staging or scaffolding for safe access on 2-story installs.
- Handle aluminum coil stock gently — avoid creasing or kinking edges.
📊 When Costs Swing Up or Down
- Up: Two-story installs, steep access, complex eaves, premium materials.
- Down: Single-story, straight runs, vinyl soffit, easy ladder access.
- Variable: Regional labor rates, trim detail complexity, scaffolding needs.
