Because they are low maintenance, they won’t need re-painting or constant maintaining like wood, and many firms now offer guarantees against paint fade and rotting.

Many supply and installation firms will also offer extended guarantees on the products, giving a homeowner peace of mind. Using the same company to supply and install the fascias and guttering could significantly reduce the cost of using two separate firms and also means you only have to make contact with one firm if you have any queries, complaints or suggestions.
