Timing

How Long Does Fascia Replacement Take?

A semi takes one to two days, a detached house two to three. Scaffolding, rot behind the old boards and Cork's winter weather add time.

Free, no obligation. One local company prices it, not five.

When to book

Cork weather and timing

October to January are Cork's wettest months: in Cork city 118 to 124 mm a month, against 72 mm in May (Met Éireann 1991–2020). The work goes ahead in winter between showers, but wind stops work at height, so a winter job can run a day longer. Book it with any other job that needs access to the eaves.
