Product Overview
9mm Plain Capping Board in Anth Grey finish measuring 175mm x 5m. Lightweight PVC-U fascia covering board designed to cap over existing sound timber fascias, providing a clean, maintenance-free external finish. The 9mm thickness offers a slim protective layer suitable for refurbishment and replacement projects without full fascia removal.
Manufactured from rigid, UV-stabilised PVC-U to deliver long-term colour stability, weather resistance and dimensional accuracy.
Provides a neat, smooth front face to conceal worn substrates and maintain consistent lines along roof edges and eaves. Supplied in 5m lengths to reduce joint frequency and simplify installation on long runs.
The anthracite grey finish offers a contemporary tone suited to modern rooflines and darker gutter systems.
