I am planning on having the fascias and soffits changed to my house. The current timber ones have been neglected by the previous owner and we are looking for a low maintenance option (plastic) to replace them with.
Is it acceptable to remove the timber in full and replace with plastic or do the timber boards add strength to the roof structure. I wouldn't want issues in the future through not doing it correctly. If they do add strength then do they need to be replaced with new timber and over clad in plastic?
