Fascia & Soffit Repair in Tallahassee, FL

Your gutters attach to one of the most important but most overlooked components of your home: the fascia. Combined with the soffit, these two boards protect your roof structure from water, pests, and moisture. When gutters leak, pull away, or overflow, fascia and soffits are usually the first to suffer.

At Tallahassee Gutter Services, we provide professional fascia and soffit repair, replacement, and reinforcement across the Tallahassee area. Whether you’ve got rotted wood, sagging sections, peeling paint, or water intrusion, we can fix the underlying damage and restore your home’s protection.

Why Fascia & Soffits Matter

Fascia and soffits play a massive role in home protection:

  • The fascia board supports your gutters

  • Soffits vent your attic and prevent heat & moisture buildup

  • They shield your rafters from direct water exposure

  • They keep pests from entering the attic

  • They protect the edge of your roof from weather

When these components fail, water, insects, mold, and even animals can get into your attic and roof decking. Left unaddressed, this can snowball into very expensive repairs.

Signs Your Fascia or Soffit Needs Repair

You may need fascia or soffit repair if you notice:

  • Soft or “spongy” wood around the gutter line

  • Peeling paint or bubbling paint on fascia boards

  • Visible rot, mold, or mildew

  • Gutter spikes pulling out because the wood is too soft

  • Water running behind the gutter

  • Animals getting into your soffit (birds, squirrels, insects)

  • Sagging gutters or warped fascia

  • Holes or cracks in soffit panels

Many homeowners don’t realize they have fascia damage until we remove old gutters — and the full picture becomes clear.

What Causes Fascia & Soffit Damage in Tallahassee

Florida weather is tough on roof edges. Common causes include:

Overflowing or leaking gutters

This is the #1 reason for fascia rot. Water hits the fascia repeatedly until it softens and decays.

Heavy storms & wind-driven rain

Storms can blow water upward under the roofline where it seeps into soffits.

Poor ventilation

Trapped heat and moisture in the attic can warp or rot soffits from the inside.

Improper gutter installation

Bad slope, loose spikes, or narrow gutters all push water into the fascia.

Old or cheap materials

Older homes often have thin wooden fascia boards that don’t hold up long-term.
