dan2802 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Hi! One thing I'm still trying to obtain a second opinion on (because I first heard it from a salesman ! ) is that flaking paint on the soffits & fascia/bargeboard (which I've got plenty of) doesn't merely indicate the need for a repaint, but that, because they're so damp, the wood is flexing. The implication being that the dampness will then get into the eaves & eventually damage the roof, which will cost very serious money. - While that's a plausible theory (certainly for a novice), how likely is it to be true, & if so, what sort of time scale am I looking at? - Months - tens of years? Cheers, Jim You've had numerous replies, why have you not contacted anyone yet for that 2nd opinion? BTW, what the salesman said is total crap!!!
