Roofing & property care in Bielby
Bielby is a small village about four miles south of Pocklington, close to the Pocklington Canal. It has St Giles' Church, said to be more than 900 years old and known for some of the best-preserved box pews in the East Riding, The College Arms, and a former Methodist chapel that is now a house.
Advanced Property Care replaces and repairs fascias, soffits and bargeboards in Bielby, and cleans and maintains UPVC rooflines. The roofline does more than finish off the eaves: it carries the gutters, protects the rafter ends and keeps birds and weather out of the roof space. We inspect first, explain what we find with photos and give you a clear written quote, whether that is a section of rotten board or a complete UPVC roofline replacement.

Roofs in Bielby: what we look out for
Bielby lies in low, flat country where a beck runs past the village. The beck once drove Bielby Mill, and it has flooded the village in the past, including in June 2007. Damp air and wet winters are hard on painted timber. Once paint cracks, water gets into the grain of fascias and bargeboards, and where a gutter has been overflowing the board behind it can rot right through while still looking acceptable from the ground.
The housing is a mix of older brick cottages, farmhouses, converted buildings and later homes. Older properties often still have timber fascias and bargeboards, sometimes with exposed rafter ends. Later houses may have early plastic or overboarded fascias that are now brittle and discoloured. Birds also take advantage of any gap at the eaves, and in open countryside like this starlings, sparrows and house martins will find a missing soffit panel or a gap behind a fascia very quickly.

Fascias, Soffits & Roofline for Bielby homes
Where timber fascias or bargeboards have rotted, we remove the old boards, check and treat the rafter ends, and fit new UPVC fascias, soffits and bargeboards, with ventilation where the roof needs it. Guttering is usually refitted or replaced at the same time, since it is carried on the fascia.
We avoid simply capping rotten timber with plastic, because it hides the problem rather than solving it. For existing UPVC rooflines that are sound but grubby, we offer cleaning to bring them back to their original colour. Where birds are getting in, we close the gaps with suitable comb fillers or replacement panels. Every job comes with photos, so you can see the condition of the timbers that were hidden behind the old boards and what has been done about them.

Questions from Bielby homeowners
Anything else you would like to know? Call us on 07338 612197 and we will happily talk it through.
How can I tell if my timber fascia is rotten?
Look for flaking paint, dark staining, gaps where the gutter brackets are fixed, or boards that appear to bow. Rot often starts behind the gutter where you cannot see it. We can check boards close up and show you photos, so you know whether a repair or replacement is needed before anything is agreed.
Is it OK to fit UPVC cladding over my old wooden fascias?
Capping over sound timber is sometimes done, but over rotten timber it traps moisture and the decay carries on unseen, along with the risk of gutters pulling away. We prefer to remove failing boards, check the rafter ends and fit a full replacement so the roofline is properly fixed.
Birds are nesting under my eaves. Can you stop them getting in?
Yes, once any active nests have finished for the season, as nesting birds are protected by law. We then seal the gaps, often at the eaves, behind the fascia or where soffit panels are missing, using appropriate fillers and replacement panels so birds cannot return to the roof space.
