What are barge boards?

Barge boards are attached the to the ends of the rafters at your premises, or the truss at the eaves. They are found where the guttering connects to allow rainwater to drain from your premises. You will also find these boards placed at the end of gable roofs, where their purpose is to cover the truss or rafters.

Are there different types of barge boards?

Yes, over time, a wide range of materials have been used in the creation of barge boards, including:

  • Metal
  • Plastic
  • Timber
  • uPVC

It is also possible to develop barge boards in a range of colours, and they can be supplied with a range of coating options. Therefore, no matter the style or identity you wish to create at home or work, you will find barge boards can be created to meet your needs.

At Stay Dry Roofing and Building Ltd, you will find we are well equipped to bring your property dreams to life. If there is a specific style of barge board you require at your premises, please get in touch, and we will be more than happy to assist you.

Can barge boards be replaced?

While we will always look to repair your existing barge board if possible, barge boards can be replaced. If there is significant damage, or the appearance of your barge boards are shabby and worn looking, installing new barge boards can improve your property, and transform how it looks.

However, depending on how your tiles are secured in place, the work involved with replacing your barge board might be significant. No matter the level of work associated with replacing your barge board, we will take care of the process from start to end.

What are the benefits of barge boards?

It is important to realise there are functional benefits of barge boards at your premises. A well-maintained barge board keeps the roof lining dry, and it ensures that no gaps or holes occur around the edges of your property.

However, for many people, it is the aesthetic charm of barge boards, rather than the functional features, that are the most telling benefit.

It is true to say that a stylish barge board helps to create a Victorian or Edwardian style at your property. If this is something you would like to implement at your premises, get in touch, and we will be more than happy to bring this to life.
