UPVC and timber fascia, soffit and bargeboard replacement across Cheltenham and Gloucestershire. Conservation area compliance for Regency properties. Free surveys and itemised quotes with no call-out fee.
Cheltenham's housing ranges from Regency terraces requiring conservation-compliant timber to 1970s estates where UPVC is overdue for replacement. We carry out both and know the difference between what each property needs.
The standard solution for post-1950s properties. White, cream, grey or anthracite UPVC in square-edge, bullnose or ogee profile to match your existing. Maintenance-free and guaranteed for 25 years. Typical semi from £600.
Get a Quote →Conservation areas in Cheltenham require timber fascias — Montpellier, Lansdown, Pittville and the Regency core all have planning requirements restricting UPVC. We supply, fit and paint timber fascias in matching profiles. From £800 for a typical property.
Get a Quote →Ventilated or solid soffit boards in UPVC or timber to match fascia replacement. Ventilated soffits are essential for maintaining roof space airflow — blocked ventilation causes condensation and premature rafter deterioration. Included in full fascia packages.
Get a Quote →Gable-end bargeboards take more weather exposure than fascias and often fail first. We replace in matching UPVC or timber depending on property type and any conservation requirements. Included in full fascia packages where applicable.
Get a Quote →Fascia replacement is the ideal time to upgrade guttering. We fit new half-round, square or ogee profile guttering as part of fascia packages at reduced labour cost — one access setup for both jobs. From £150 added to a fascia package.

Cheltenham's housing history creates two distinct fascia and soffit situations — and the wrong solution in a conservation area can cause planning problems.
Montpellier, Lansdown, Pittville, St Paul's — these conservation areas generally require timber fascias painted in appropriate colours. White UPVC can require planning permission or be refused. We assess compliance before quoting and carry out timber work where required.
Up Hatherley, Hester's Way, Benhall and similar estates have UPVC fascias from the 1970s–80s now at end of life — UV-yellowed, joint-cracked and deflecting gutters. Full replacement is more cost-effective than patch repair at this stage.
St Paul's, Fairview and inner Cheltenham Victorian terraces often have original softwood fascias. Where rot is localised, repair is viable. Where it is widespread, replacement in matching timber profile is the right answer.
All fascia and soffit work requires scaffold or tower access. We organise this as part of every job — no hidden access costs. Fascia, soffit, bargeboard and gutter work is all done from one scaffold setup.
These are realistic price ranges based on typical Cheltenham property types. All include supply and fit, scaffold, removal of old materials and guttering re-hung or replaced.
2-bedroom terrace: £500–£700 · 3-bed semi-detached: £700–£1,000 · 4-bed detached: £1,000–£1,800 · Large detached: £1,800–£2,800
Add 30–40% to UPVC prices for timber equivalent, including painting in specified colour. Conservation area work may require additional planning advice — we can advise on this at survey stage.
All prices are guide ranges. We provide free, itemised written quotes for every job.
"Full fascia, soffit and gutter replacement on our 1980s detached in Up Hatherley. Old UPVC was cracking and the gutters had been deflecting for years. New system is level, well fitted and looks much better. Tidy job, done in a day."
"Timber fascias on our Victorian terrace in St Paul's. They knew about the conservation area requirements without me raising it and quoted timber as standard. Good quality painting, correct profile matched. No planning issues."
"Had the bargeboards on the gable end replaced as they were the worst. They pointed out the fascias were close to needing replacement too and quoted to do all while the scaffold was up — saved a second access cost. Honest advice."
A standard 3-bed semi in Cheltenham typically costs £800–1,800 for full UPVC fascia, soffit and barge board replacement including new guttering. Period properties cost more. All quotes are free and written.
Yes. On Victorian and Edwardian properties we use foiled UPVC in heritage colours — cream, black or wood-effect — to maintain character. Where conservation areas restrict UPVC, we advise on painted timber alternatives.
Overflowing gutters soak the fascia board end-grain. Once the paint seal breaks, Cheltenham's damp winters mean timber never fully dries. UPVC replacement eliminates this failure mode permanently.
In Cheltenham's conservation areas, planning policy typically requires wooden fascia boards rather than UPVC. We advise on conservation compliance as part of the free survey.
Signs include: visible rot or cracking, UPVC yellowing or splitting at joints, gutters overflowing despite clearing, or boards pulling away from the wall plate. We carry out free condition assessments.
Quality UPVC systems typically last 25–35 years. Properties with 1980s–90s installations are broadly at end of life now. South-facing elevations show yellowing faster than north-facing boards.
Yes. When fascias are replaced we replace the guttering at the same time as standard. This is included in our quotes, not added as a surprise extra.
We survey fascias, soffits and bargeboards for free across Cheltenham and provide a written assessment before any commitment.
